I had a great tour with JR! He showed us a lot of great places I didn’t know about although I’m often in Berlin. He told us informative and funny stories and also gave us time to take a lot of pictures. I really recommend the “Alternative Berlin” tour.

We took a tour with “Good ol’ J.R.” and loved being shown some hidden spots with cool graffiti art around Berlin. He took us just outside of Berlin to Kreuzberg, which we never would’ve went to on our own, and were absolutely blown away by the area, it’s culture, art, and cool stories about some locals. J.R. kept us moving at a nice pace and even brought us to a remodeled hospital that is now an art exhibit (again, we never would’ve known about this without going on the tour). Highly recommend, especially if you can get J.R. as your guide.
