Anna Dorothea Ker, CeeCee Berlin
I can't recommend this tour company enough! Yesterday we took the Potsdam Soviet History Walking tour and loved every minute of it. The guide, Holger, is so engaging and really makes the history come alive. If you are in the area, take the time for this tour--you'll be happy you did!
Wendy Lee, California
It’s perfect for tourists, who would like a unique walk through central Berlin, but as a local I also learned a lot and enjoyed Holger’s extensive knowledge of the subject.
'An Englishman in Berlin', Berlin
Holger was recommended to us and did not disappoint. We took a private tour so that we could ask lots of questions and focus on what interested us most. He delivered a very interesting commentary in excellent English.
