Enjoyable, informative and relaxing tour - Yasmine our guide made this tour very enjoyable. She is very knowledgeable and talked enthusiastically about a multitude of things including the buildings, history and the landscape of the areas as we travelled to Potsdam around Potsdam and back to Berlin. En route we stopped briefly at the infamous Glenicker bridge between East and West and then the impressive Neues palace where the young Princess Victoria spent time. The inside of Sansoussi palace is definitely worth seeing it's so beautiful. It wasn't the best time of year to visit the outside as it was snowing a little but one could imagine the beauty of it in spring and summer. Thanks to Yasmine and her careful driver.

5-Star Review: Postdam & Sanssouci Tour with Pete! ✨ - If you’re thinking about exploring Potsdam and the stunning Sanssouci Palace, do yourself a favor and go with Pete! From the moment we met him, he brought the whole adventure to life with a mix of charm, humor, and amazing storytelling. Pete doesn’t just guide you — he sweeps you into the history like you’re part of a royal court drama. One moment you’re captivated by the anecdotes about Frederick the Great’s, and the next you’re standing in awe at the sweeping gardens, columns, and palatial beauty sparkling in the sun. 🌞🌿 What makes Pete truly exceptional is how effortlessly he keeps everyone engaged. He knows that travel is about fun as much as facts. He peppers the tour with lively trivia, bold characters, and a few theatrical moves (yes, he can reenact a Prussian king better than any history buff you’ve ever met). We were smiling from start to finish — and learning way more than we ever expected. The pace was perfect, too: plenty of time for photos, coffee, and soaking in those postcard-worthy views. And when we had questions, Pete always had the perfect answer ready, and usually a joke to go with it! We left feeling like we’d just stepped out of a time machine — and made a new friend along the way. ✨ 🎉 Final verdict: Potsdam and Sanssouci are magical on their own but exploring them with Pete turns a great day into an unforgettable day. Highly recommended — 10/10, would happily follow Pete into any palace again! 👑

This tour was excellent-... - This tour was excellent- the guide provided many interesting details on the drive to Potsdam, and Sans Souci was fascinating (with a lot of information about Frederick’s life at the palace). On thee return trip, hearing about AVUS and seeing the grandstand was fascinating.
