My name is Kerstin and as a lifelong Berliner I have witnessed the Fall of the Wall and the reunification of Germany. I would feel happy to share with you this historical experience. Grown up and raised in former East Berlin I offer you my first-hand impressions about East and West joining each other. The dramatic changes 30 years ago meant a great chance to develop my passion for art and history in freedom. In these days I did start with all kind of guided VIP tours in Berlin and Potsdam for individuals as well as companies. I also organized several global conferences and larger events for several hundred participants with tailor-made programs in Berlin. Would you prefer an overview of the city's eventful history? Or, if you've visited Berlin previously, would you like to experience something new? There are many ideas and proposals waiting for you. Take interest, humor and my "magnifying glass" to enjoy this unique city! Potsdam: Official Licenses for guiding at Prussian Palaces as Palace Sanssouci (very few guides are allowed to guide inside) Castle Cecilienhof (Potsdam Agreement) New Chambers (Guests House at Sanssouci) Berlin: Museum Island Berlin (e.g. Pergamon Museum, Egyptian Museum, Old National Gallery), Jewish Museum (designed by Daniel Libeskind) Checkpoint Charlie Museum Topography of Terror (Nazi sites as SS and Gestapo HQ) Charlottenburg Palace Member of the Federal Association of Guides in Germany (BVGD) Education: Certificate as trained guide in Berlin and Potsdam (Berlin Guide e.V. / Potsdam Guide e.V.) Studied art, tourism and cultural management

Overview of your Berlin tour

Relax and listen to the fascinating and changeful history from Prussian kings to the Weimar Republic. Explore with me all major sights of Berlin and the past will come alive: Would you like to join me in exploring the movie-film site of "Babylon Berlin" and get inspired by its "Roaring Twenties"? At the same time, we will learn how national socialism slowly spread and the Weimar Republic came to an end. Would you like to know more about the "Third Reich"? I invite you to visit one of the remaining bunkers. Learn about what life meant under the Hitler Regime for Jews and common people. We will also turn to more recent history and I will answer all the questions about the wall. How did it happen that it was built, how life in the divided city continued, and finally did the wall came really down by accident? Grown-up and raised in former East Berlin I offer you my first-hand impressions about East and West joining each other. And last but not least why are so many young people attracted by the city!
