Our guide Emma was enthusiastic and presented her information about history in a fascinating way. This tour took us to a number of important sites related to World War II in Berlin. Without this tour, we would not have been able to find these places so quickly and easily on our own. Berlin is a big city. This tour has made me want to come back to Berlin again. I definitely recommend this tour.

The tour guide Simon was fantastic. Covered all the key areas with great enthusiasm, wit and humour. He provided great insight to the city, its' turbulent history and the underlying social and cultural aspects. The 4 hours flew by (even for my 14 yr old son!) and we would thoroughly recommend this to anyone interested in WW2 and 3rd Reich history. Thank you Simon.

I liked this walking tour of world war II and Reich walking. Jimmy was good enough to capture and explain everything we need to know. However, this tour should have visit to Reichstag dome from inside without visiting the dome from inside, this tour cannot be completed and hence, I gave 4 star to it.

Set out on a guided tour around some of the Second World War’s most significant monuments.

Explore the Jewish district and take a look at the New Synagogue.

Visit the Topography of Terror and discover how the Nazi party was formed.

Walk around the Anhalter Bahnhof, and see the trails of destruction left behind by a bombing in WWII.

Learn about the rise and fall of the Nazi regime and end the tour at the site of its demise, The Reichstag.

The tour is limited to a maximum of 25 participants.

Louis was very good - and kept aware of crowds since there was a large demonstration forming by the Bradenburg Gate. Thank you for keeping us safe!

Walking through such an amazing city with a friendly and knowledgeable guide (Jimmy) is a great way to get to know parts of the city that are significant to 20th Century history. Walking pace creates opportunities for conversation and moments of reflection. It's the perfect way to get to know such an interesting city. Our guide, Jimmy, was excellent! You can tell he really loves Berlin and has immersed himself in the stories and history of this incredible city. Highly recommend the walking tour.
