Berlin Hauptbahnhof: Tours & Tickets

We booked a tour for 5 people for 17:30. Got there 17:27, the operator has just rolled the bridge and refused to let us board, and just sailed away. We were infuriated, called the service, they told us to come again the next day, in which we indeed got a ride with no additional cost, but with a very bitter taste. The ride itself was smooth and comfortable, bar with drinks (be sure not to bring too large notes - these were simply not accepted!), audio guides worked well.

I would recommend this tour if you are having a short break in Berlin. The tour was informative and we were shown all the main tourist spots in two hours. We only stopped twice because there was so much to see. This tour will give you a good introduction before you go ahead and choose which sites to re-visit in depth. Thank you so much Petra, Rajko and Carsten. When we come back again we will book a different tour.

We rode on two buses. The first had recorded descriptions and a headset with language selection and volume. No trouble hearing or understanding the narrative. The second had live guide with English and German descriptions. The guide seemed very knowledgeable, provided more information than the recording and it was more interactive.

We took a 4 hour bike tour of Berlin with Markus, starting and finishing at Bornheimerstrasse. Our guide was pleasant, interactive and informative, filling us in on historic, geographical and architectural detail and showing a great variety of sights during our tour. This was a great orientation activity on day one of our visit.

We had a great time! I recommend you come with a little bit of knowledge of German and Berlin history, as you will then just add to that! Checking out everything you could want to see, with a lot of amazing architecture knowledge, in the most special vehicle ever!!
