I am an Israeli who lives since 1987 in Berlin, a tour guide and a filmmaker. I deliver the highest quality experience, making your visit fun at the same time. I combine an excellent grasp of Central European and Jewish history with a deep knowledge of art, architecture and literature. A day in Berlin with me is the ideal introduction to the complicated often conflicting world of historic and contemporary Germany. I picks you up in my van, and guides you through the Enlightenment, the glory of 19c Germany, the downward spiral of the Nazi era, the post war division then recovery and brings you to today. I am an Alumni of the film & television dept. of Tel Aviv University. As of 1987 I continued my studies in film and communication at the Free University of West Berlin. In 1989 I began working as a tour guide in Berlin and the area for individuals and groups. In 1999 I wrote for the magazine 'City Mouse' for Berlin, and through the years I have written many articles about the city. I guide the diplomatic staff of the Israeli Embassy in Germany often, relating special topics and including official guests of the Embassy - Ministers, Military Attaches, Members of Parliament, City Mayors and more. All my tours can be customized upon request, so I invite you to contact me. I am an Alumni of the film & television dept. of Tel Aviv University.

There is no city like Berlin, which is famous for its past and its present alike. A day in Berlin with me is the ideal introduction to the complicated often conflicting world of historic and contemporary Germany. I live since 1987 in Berlin and I keep on learning and researching about the amazing history of this city. Theatrics are alien to me, I am concerned with facts, with imparting knowledge. Let me tell you about the circumstances that caused two World Wars and show you their traces in the city until today. Come with me and discover Berlin's historical classics as we wander through the city's modern central district. I will guide you through the Enlightenment, the glory of 19c Germany, the downward spiral of the Nazi era, the post war division then recovery and brings you to today.
Her history and storytelling were wonderful.
She is a wonderful tour guide. We saw all the highlights of Berlin by car, stopping at the sites for the historical explanation and for any picture taking. Berlin is a vast city and this tour was so helpful to obtain some type of orientation to the city. She is quick witted, intelligent and very knowledgeable, as well as Fluent in English. Do yourself a favor and book a tour with Nirit!
Great guide with tremendous knowledge of history, jewish history of Germany, and German culture. Provision of air-conditioned transportation on a hot July day added to the positive experience.
Outstanding tour. Outstanding knowledgeable guide. Truly a local history/geography buff. Vivacious and engaging. Time flew by too quickly. Adaptable to clients interests and background. Will return for other tours.
Nirit did a fine job and we certainly enjoyed our tour. We learned a great deal of the history of Berlin from her prospective.
We had a very informative and comprehensive Highlights of Berlin tour with Nirit. Nirit really knows her stuff and was able to answer pretty much anything we threw at her. It was a great way to quickly get to know the main highlights of the city.
