We had a fantastic tour of Wannsee and Potsdam with our guide Luca. From the enlightening House of the Wannsee Conference, to the fabulous grounds of Schloss Cecilienhof and Sanssouci Palace, the quaint allure of the Old Dutch Quarter, the iconic "Bridge of Spies" and much more, this tour to the outskirts of Berlin was well worth our time (and money). There was much to see and be awe-inspired by, and Luca's friendly nature and trove of knowledge made the tour all the more interesting and memorable. Definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Berlin with 5-6 hours to spare!

Sven and our driver Jorgen were very attentive to our special needs and made sure we maximize the tour, as we have a kid and a senior with us. They made the trip very enjoyable. The sites visited were very interesting, and being able to visit sites outside of Berlin was a treat. This tour is highly recommended.

Thomas is a terrific guide and very knowledgeable about German history in particular. I did this tour with my teenage kids and they were engaged the whole time. Thomas made it interactive and informative and tailored the tour to our interests. Thank you!

Thomas is an excellent guide who is very knowledgeable. He imparted many tidbits of information that we wouldn’t have found out otherwise. The ride in the van with Marius driving was very pleasant. From the punctual pickup and drop off, the whole tour was enjoyable and informative, the five hours seemed to have flown quickly.

Thomas is a brilliant guide & driver, knowing so much about what has taken place in the Berlin area. He has a lot of interesting things to tell about persons, places, events etc. and he knows where to stop for the best sights. 6 hours passed in a second.

Thomas provided me with opportunities to experience new places/sites that would have been difficult to explore on my own. I highly recommend this tour.

Just what we were hoping for. A small group private booking tour, including a lady in wheelchair. Guide was very informative and helpful in involving the lady with mobility problems. Only negatives were the high cost and the choice of venue for lunch could have been better.
