Overview of your Berlin tour

This walking tour is ideal for first timers in Berlin or those who would like to rediscover the main sights from another point of view. The visit encompasses 300 years of history, from the Prussian Kingdom and Empire to the Third Reich and the Cold War through the modern day. You will not only get a good overview of the historical background of Berlin but also receive a wealth of information on today's modern metropole. Find out what is left from the Prussian empire. Why is the Brandenburg Gate the symbol of modern-day Germany? What was Hitler's megalomaniac plan and where was his last hiding place? Discover where the Wall stood and the events which occurred along the border between East and West Berlin. You will learn how the Wall has reshaped the city. This outdoor tour is a good alternative to a museum visit and a great introduction to both modern and historic Berlin. It can be tailored to your wishes and even customized to an entire day by combining it with the tour #41672:"Historical Berlin's Center"
