Interesting and very nice guide

This tour is a nice way to discover some places outside the main tourists routes. Plus, our guide J.R. was very interesting to listen and funny.

Amazed by our tour guide who was genuine en told us so much about the tour. You can definitely tell he’s a teacher by testing us along the tour. Loved is that he pointed out so many street art, big and small pieces. Thanks a lot Marc! Now I want to come back and see lot’s more.

Alternative Tour w Chris (from Canada)

Chris was a very fun host! He guided through parts of the city I had never been before, and he always had something from his own experience to tell us about the places we went through. He always made sure we were all together, and that everyone had their metro ticket. He even stayed at the final stop for some minutes to answer any questions we might have. Really insightful, yet entertaining tour. Recommend it a lot.

Super great!

My wife and I took this tour with Chris who besides being a super cool dude gave us a fun filled factual tour of the lesser known Areas of Berlin sprinkled with comical anecdotes from his own experience of a hippy lifestyle that I’m sure his parents would frown at. If you get to berlin….take this tour and and your understanding of Berlin and its cosmopolitan beautiful people will be holistic!

Alternative Berlin with JR

1 year ago

I loved everything about this tour! I’ve discovered new things about Berlin that I’ve never paid attention to before. JR shares lots of unique and fun information, and he’s super easy to understand. The time went by very quickly and having a small break during the tour was a nice idea. Plenty of opportunities for taking pictures of street art. 🙂
