Alex was a great tour guide, and showed us so many interesting places! I definitely learned a lot more about Berlin that I probably wouldn’t learn elsewhere. Can definitely recommend!

Very much enjoyed the free walking tour with Annika . Not only was she very knowledgeable on the art side of Berlin , as a native German she was able to give a first hand account of German life pre and post ’90’

Definable a great tour

Annika was a brilliant host and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. It was really good to see a different side to the city,which is quirky and creative. I learned a lot about the difference between street art and graffiti. Would recommend.

We did not see anything in the tour.

Alex just took us from place to place, not focusing on important places.

He did not explain, no art galleries , street art..

He made several stops as a free time, did not began the tour on time.

Waste of time
