Artistic and underground tour with JR

We did the tour with JR and I was very funny and interesting. He definitely showed us a Berlin we couldn’t know by our own. He knows a lot about urban art and the underground events/places around

We had a great time on our tour with J. R.! The route was really diverse with great stories and insights. J. R. was happy to answer any questions and was overall super nice, funny and easy to get along with. We can only recommend the tour if you are interested to see something besides the typical sights of Berlin.
