You will be picked up directly from your hotel or a prearranged meeting point.
At the end of the tour you will be dropped off at your hotel or, if you wish to remain in the city, your guide can give you recommendations for further exploration.
Your professional, local guide will meet you at your hotel and introduce you to the tour.
At our first stop you will witness a city, a people, and families divided at this excellent museum housed in the former passport control of a border crossing point over the Berlin Wall.
After a short walk from Friedrichstraße Station to Unter den Linden, you will stand in awe of the magnitude of the base of power the Soviets built for themselves in their occupied part of Berlin.
Next we stop in the former ‘Death Strip’ and to out why Berlin’s iconic monument became a potent symbol for all of Germany in the years the nation was divided.
After a short train ride on the S-Bahn you will reach one of Berlin’s former ‘Ghost Stations’ – locked down by East German border guards during the Cold War.
Next you will visit Berlin's official Berlin Wall Memorial: stand in the shadow of the Wall; follow it underground into one of the city's notorious former 'Ghost Stations'; pay tribute to those who lost their lives at the border, and stand at the site of daring escapes from East to West; and look out over the former 'Death Strip'. The tour ends here.
Your guide will accompany you back to your hotel.
