The Museum Island is housing 5 museums with very special exhibitons: among them is National Gallery for german and european arts, New Museum with the famous bust of Nefertiti and the Golden Hat, Bodemuseum with german and italien renaissance, Old Museum with ancient roman and greek art and and the recently built new entrance gallery designed by David Chipperfield. Pergamonmuseum is closed for several years. but in an special exhibition youu will get an overview panoramic impression of Pergamon and its buildings. (Pergamon Panorama) We will also talk about the Humoldtforum, a new building housing serveral museums of art and science.

Karen provided a terrific tour of the highlights of the Bode Museum and Neues Museum. With so many artifacts to view, it was very helpful to have a guide to bring us to specific exhibits and describe each so well. We recommend Karen as a guide at Museum Island.
Jennifer L.United States
We really enjoyed our museum tour with Karen. She made suggestions of what to see in the museums, and while I had other ideas in mind, I’m so glad we went with what she suggested!
Juli H.United States
Karen was a fantastic tour guide. We loved hearing about the history of Berlin from Karen. There were three of us on the tour and we all had varying interest and knowledge levels. Karen dealt with our differences like a true professional. She is energetic, bright, and personable. I would highly recommend Karen to help you navigate Berlin and the sites you want to see!
Susan S.United States
Karen was excellent! She led us through the Neuses Museum in under 3 hours explaining exhibits after exhibits. Her knowledge on any subject was incredible! Plus her enthusiasm!! I can't imagine having a better experience and Karen was the reason.!!
