At Berlin Private Tours we do not provide generic tours. We do not work to a script or follow a specific ‘route’. We work to the needs and desires of our clients to provide a flexible and interesting itinerary to show you what you are most interested in as well as some things you may not even know exist. The tour itineraries listed here are simply suggestions, we can mix and match as you like depending on your level of interest, budget and time constraints. Do make sure you check out ‘More Specialised Possibilities’ page. Let us know your interests and we’ll make them possible.
Showcasing the best of Berlin we take in all the main sites, along the way discussing everything from the Kaisers to WWII, cold war division through to vibrant modern day Berlin.
