Really great and varied tour taking you through the subcultures and history that make up the city including abit of street art, the punk movement and the East West Divide. Chris from Canada was brilliant and clearly very passionate about Berlin and all it has to offer.

We took 2 tours with RJ – Wellcome to Berlin and Alternative Berlin, and we would highly recommend both! RJ has very interesting way of sharing Berlin’s history and introducing city to people on tour. Me and my 17 years old daughter loved it!
