Walking through history in Berlin

On a 2-hour tour of Germany's past around the Berlin Wall, witness the eerie Nordbahnhof, once a vibrant hub, now known as the "ghost station" due to its silencing after the Wall's construction. Led by a seasoned guide, you'll navigate significant sites of the Wall's former route, including a symbolic rye field packed with 14,000 plants, each representing a successful escapee from East Germany.

Stories from the Cold War

Traverse the death strip to a demolished church, its ruins still whispering stories of the tragic past. The tour continues along Bernauer Strasse, synonymous with heart-rending separations and daring escapes. Discover the remarkable Tunnel 57 and the spot where guard Conrad Schuhmann leaped over the Wall, embodying the human spirit's resilience.
