    Cancellation policy

    These tickets can't be cancelled or rescheduled.

    They say it’s not about the destination but the journey. In this case, it is a little bit about both. A hop-on-hop-off bus tour offers a means of hassle-free transportation across the city, connecting you to major portions of Berlin. This ticket is your ideal partner for a wholesome time of sightseeing. Waste no time figuring out the technicalities and spend more time enjoying the finer details of travel and exploration. Visit Checkpoint Charlie, a symbolic passage between two eras, or Brandenburg Gate, the symbolic reckoning of German unity. Explore some of the most important museums in the vicinity, or search for hidden street art, or indulge even, in the best cinnamon rolls you’ll ever taste.

    In addition to the bus tour, the ticket also includes an immersive walking tour and a river cruise. Get a glimpse into Berlin’s electrifying and seldom climactic history on the walking tour through Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, Hitler's Bunker and so much more. Conclude your elaborate journey in Berlin with a soothing cruise along the River Spree. The cruise offers a wholly different perspective on popular sights like the Reichstag, Berlin Cathedral, Nikolai Quarter, and Museum Island.
