Inspiring tour - This was a very informative tour that I discovered by chance, and I’m glad I joined. I received answers to many of my questions, and the experience felt well-organized and engaging. After the tour, I also visited some of the recommended places and had the opportunity to support local artists, which added extra value to the experience. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, reminding me of the environment I grew up in. Although I live in a smaller place, this experience made me appreciate Berlin much more. Jake was a knowledgeable and lively guide who made the tour enjoyable throughout. I would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Definitely recommend! Fantastic and immersive experience. Ben the guide is just brilliant! - This tour is one of the best things you can do while in Berlin. 3 hours of walking through Mitte and Kreuzberg, we learnt about Berlins street art and squatting culture, the context of immigrants in shaping culture and art and had some of the best hot chocolate.

Highly recommended introduction to contemporary Berlin - This is an incredibly well put-together tour. It takes you into a side of Berlin less-seen by tourists and you get a real feel for the vibrancy and creativity of the city. Along with information on Berlin as it is now, there is plenty of history and stories of how it got this way. You learn about architecture, the East/West divide, community anctivism and how artists are making a living now. Our guide. Anton, is a working street artist and was warm, friendly and ready to answer everyone’s questions. Everything seemed packed closer together than the history tours of Berlin, so this 3-hour tour is packed with interesting things to see.

Excellent - The guide was excellent, linking street art to recent history of Berlin. He showed a real in-depth understanding of the area. We had been worried 3 hours was too much but it flew by.

Interesting tour outside the beaten-path - I really loved this tour! I would like to see something else, than the known sights in Berlin, as I have seen them before, so I booked a "Off-the-beaten-path tour" which is a 3 hour walking tour in the Mitte, Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain area. Our guide Lee was very knowledgeable, and I learned a lot about the history of Berlin that I did not know beforehand. He also told a lot of short storys of people and places, that I find very interesting. I absolutely recommend this tour to everyone! PS: wear good shoes!

A great time - A really fun and informative tour led by a super knowledgeable guide. This tour gives you a bit of Berlin’s complex history from all the post-war eras, I felt like I was getting to see a very lived-in slice of the city which I wouldn’t have found otherwise. Would highly recommend.

Great alternative tour - Great tour led by Reece. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the alternative scene in Berlin. Dead Chicken Alley was fascinating. Kreutzberg was an area we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Good to see a different side of Berlin.
