A "Senior Guide" by now, being a tour guide since 1994, I'm still passionate about this ever-changing town. This is Berlin to me: modern German politics, city planning, Prussian kings and emperors, avantgarde arts and cultures, multiethnic life, dreamy lakeshores, a great amount of freedom. . . but mostly, of course, it's the 20th century history which counts here. The two big tales of the 20th century were Berlin-made - one of deepest misery and one of highest joy - Hitler's Third Reich and the Fall of the Berlin Wall. It was the fascination of Berlin after the Wall had gone, the split city becoming one, that made me turn Berlin into my profession. I offer expertise and experience, comprehensive, top-quality and knowledgeable services, always focusing on my guests's interests and wishes. All my tours can be taken either with minivan, bus, or walking/taxi/public transport. All tours in English, Spanish or German. I also work as tour and travel guide in Germany, Czech Republic, and Poland, Krakow/Auschwitz. Apart from guiding, I love swing dancing and I create art (mostly drawings). Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Berlin! Certified member of BVGD (Federal Association of Guides in Germany) and Berlin Guide e.V.

The Nazi concentration camp Sachsenhausen was Berlin's "capital camp", close to the city, built-in 1936 as a "model camp". On the grounds, there are original barracks left and remainders of former killing sites. There are several expositions to visit. The memorial gives you information on the Nazi concentration or extermination camp system in general, as well as life in this specific camp, and the persecution of German Jews. Sachsenhausen is also the site of forging foreign currency. I am a certified memorial guide in Sachsenhausen. National Socialist history is my main focus as a Berlin guide, and this tour is best combined with my other tours on this topic. I'm also a tour guide to Auschwitz extermination camp.
