Your Berlin tour itinerary

- We start from the meeting point and then we tour by public trains and busses to the southern end of Berlin. I am willing to customize this tour according to your preferences, please contact me for a customized tour. I have already done this tour with a group, but I hired a bus and driver in advance. this makes the tour considerably more expensive, because the hire car has to be rented for 6 hours. estimated at 400, -€ Start is at the "Bridge ". We walk into the small village Glienicke, on traces of the Berlin Wall. Uphill, into the great park of "Palace Babelsberg", with a short overview. Then back to the Bridge, we walk into the landscape garden of "Palace Glienicke". A summer residence of a prussian prince, with a nice view.
