Everyone interested in having a local Berlin experience. It is also very handy for newcomers to Berlin and the perfect for visiting family and friends.
Definitely! Simply advise in-advance on the booking form.
We categorise the level of the tours as “easy”. We have organised a very good mix of walking and sitting and eating, so you are never on your feet too long.
If anything there will be slightly too much food on offer. There is a tasting session at each of the six stops.
We have a maximum group size of 10 people, this enables us taste the local eateries and easily move around the best sites.
We can occasionally arrange an extra guide, so if the day is showing full simply shoot us an email and we will do our best to organise a tour for that day.
Brandenburg Gate, Berlin Wall Memorial, Museum Island, Reichstag, East Side Gallery, TV Tower
Day 1 – Main sights and highlights. A historical walking tour is our suggestion.
Day 2 – Neighbourhood Food Tour + Museum Island
Day 3 – Potsdam or Street Art Tour
It offers unlimited transport + discounts to museums and galleries. If you are using public transport throughout your stay and visiting the museums and galleries, then it is definitely worth it.
Within the city the best spots where you can touch, see and learn about the Berlin Wall are East Side Gallery (artistic) and Bernauer Str. Memorial (historical).
Still visible in architecture, vibe, and street layout. However, both former east and west Berlin neighbourhoods offer a hip and trendy, classic and traditional and alternative areas.

Generally safe at all hours. We would only suggest not to walk through parks alone late at night.
Hauptbahnhof, Alexa Mall, apps like Stasher or Radical Storage
Yes! Safe to drink everywhere. Our water is graded ”safe for babies to drink”. That is the highest rating popssible.
Berlin is a bit backdated when it comes to card payment, although it is now becoming more regularly available. Nonetheless, it is always recommended to have cash on you. Some restaurants, even with a large bill, still do not accept card payment.
Card payment in supermarkets is possible, but not in most convenient stores.
10% at restaurants, bars and taxis. Although tipping is not essential to the salary of employees, it is always nice to tip if they have done a good job.

A very subjective question and grounds for discussion between friends in Berlin. We suggest:
For sure! Afterall, we are the official no. 1 vegan spot in Europe. Pretty much all locations have vegetarian and vegan dishes on the menu, if they are not solely veg or vegan. While there is a gigantic list, here are a few ideas to get you started.
Out of the goodness of our heart, we have tried and tested all locations
Going during the daytime hours is going to give you the shortest waiting times. If you have no other option, then enjoy the wait for a few drinks while meeting others in the queue.
Tips for entry:
Dress simply, don’t be loud and obnoxious in line and be respectful. There is no magic sword of one way to get in. This is a queer club, but that does not always make your chances any more likely to enter.
Tip: stay positive if you get rejected and have a back-up plan to go elsewhere.
This would be either Kreuzberg, Friedrichshain, Neukölln, Prenzlauer Berg. All good areas in their own respect. If you are looking for a more dressy, cocktail neighbourhood, then Schöneberg and Charlottenburg are your choices.
Great transport and flat roads and bike tracks for riding, Berlin is set-up for getting you around
Extremely! Use Donkey Republic, Nextbike, Lime or rent a bike from one of the many bike shops.
Most roads have bike tracks and cars are mindful of bikes.
Many Berliners don’t wear a helmut. While it is not mandatory, it is definitely recommended. A head injury is not worth it.
A transport ticket is valid on the train (S+U Bahn only), bus, or tram. They are all the same ticket. You can either:
Google/Apple Pay is accepted via BVG app or card machines. But once on the tram. This is only cash.
Nope. Public transport + bike is ideal
There is no central point in Berlin. Each district is its own city.
If you want alternative with a mix of start-up culture, then Kreuzberg is your choice.
If you prefer a bit more rough and ragid with young culture and a vibrant immigrant culture, then Neukölln suits you.
Prenzlauer Berg is a bohemian, beautiful, clean-cut area with a laid back vibe, great bakeries, coffee and family lifestyle.
Nope. Public transport + bike is ideal
Always good to be prepared before travelling to a foreign country
Goodbye is always ‘Tschussi” or make it sing a little longer to sound friendlier ”Tschussiiii”
No, but learning a few basics always helps
