Overview of your Berlin tour:

"Ich bin ein Berliner" said the American President John Kennedy in June 1963 in Berlin. You don't need to be born in Berlin to feel that way and to be impressed by the twisted fate of this city. If you want to see and feel the Cold War and what was at stake at that time follow me in the streets of the German capital, which was the epicenter of it. As foreigners, we will discover the sufferings but also the little happiness of the Berliners from both sides. I will explain to you how quickly the former enemies thanks to candies and chocolate became the friends of a population who wanted only one thing, rebuild the country and look into the future. We will see together why it was called a "cold" war, as there was no so much action, but a constant tension between the four powers. I will make you feel in the Bernauer Strasse how it was to live behind the Wall and how much risk the East Berliner were willing to take to go to the West. The Wall not only divided a city, but also families, friends, and lovers.
