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.

Overview of your Berlin tour

Do you have a fancy for castles, palaces, parks, and lakes? You'll enjoy Potsdam! It's a small, beautiful town set among lakes, just outside Berlin, and its 12 palaces date from various eras and styles, large parts under World Cultural Heritage Protection of the Unesco. I'd love to show you some hidden gems among the parks, or even take you on a lovely boat ride. Listen to some family stories of kings and queens, dogs and princes. There's a cute baroque city center. We can have lunch in the Dutch Quarter or Russian Village and stroll through a baroque town. Inside visits of palaces on request.
