Our City bike Tour provides you with a perfect orientation to Berlin, regardless of if you’re new to this great city or have experienced it many times before. You’ll understand all facets of Berlin in one tour: Berlin’s founding, the Prussians, Weimar Republic, Hitler and the Third Reich, as a city divided by The Wall during the Cold War, and the Berlin of today.
We cruise through delightful parks to a fantastic beer garden! You may want to bring some extra cash for lunch.
Tour Highlights
-
Checkpoint Charlie

The famous border crossing between East Berlin and West Berlin for Allied forces and foreigners is now an outdoor exhibit detailing the Cold War.
-
Berlin Wall

See one of the last remaining sections of the Berlin Wall, now under historical protection, as we discussed why it was built and how it fell.
-
Hitler's Bunker

Stand above Hitler's bunker as we recount the final days of the Third Reich and Hitler's bizarre demise.

Watchtower

See one of the last remaining watchtowers in the Berlin Wall no-man's-land isolating West Berlin within East Germany.

Topography of Terror

This former headquarters of the infamous Nazi 'Gestapo' and SS is now a free museum detailing interrogations by the Nazis that took place here.
-
Beer Garden Break

About 2/3 through the tour we stop at a fantastic beer garden in the heart of Berlin's massive city park. This is a great chance to plug your guide for more inside information.
-
Luftwaffe Ministry

The massive former headquarters building of the Nazi Luftwaffe Ministry still stands and is now the main building of Germany's Finance Ministry.
-
Brandenburg Gate

Arguably Germany's most famous monument, the Brandenburg Gate served as a backdrop for many of Berlin's most important events: Napoleon's march into Berlin, the division of Berlin during the Cold War, famous speeches (Reagan) and concerts (Hasselhof!), and much more.
-
Victory Column

This massive symbol of victory by the Prussian army over the Danes, Austrians, and French was relocated along the massive East-West Axis in accordance to Hitler's infamous redesign of Berln.
-
Soviet War Memorial

-
Potsdamer Platz

The new "downtown" of Berlin with unparalleled modern architecture.
-
Reichstag

Germany's famous parliament building stood just in front of the Wall in West Berlin, a testament that the final chapters of Berlin's 20th Century had yet to be written. Germany moved it's federal government back to Berlin in 1999.
-
Museum Island

This is home to five of Berlin's most famous museums, notably the Pergamon Museum and the Egyptian Museum (now housed in the Altes Museum).
-
Bebelplatz

Directly in front of the main building and library of Germany's most prestigious university, this was the site of the Nazi's infamous book-burning on May 10, 1933.
-
Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

This recently-finished memorial is powerful to all who visit. Its 2711 blocks of various heights sit on undulating ground to give those walking through it a sense of solice and solitude.
Additional Information
Most people begin with our City bike tour and then continue on a subject-specific tour of their interest or our Potsdam Bike Tour. Make no mistake - each of the tours are very different and perfect compliments rather than substitutes. In fact, straight from the meeting point they head in completely different directions. Regardless of what tour or tours you choose, you can always expect the same quality of guides, content, and atmosphere.
Also, whether you are a student/senior or not, after your 2nd tour we always give you the student/senior discount as a returning customer.
