Stefan was very engaging and knowledgeable. We Highly recommend this tour. Went at a great pace and was overall very enjoyable.

We had a great day. It was both enjoyable and very informative. Our guide Stefan was very knowledgeable and he adapted the tour to suit our interests, for example making time to go inside the Schloss Cecilienhof where the 1945 Potsdam Conference was held, and having a delicious relaxed lunch in the Dutch Quarter. We chose this trip because of the WW2 and Cold War history but it delivered so much more. It was really worthwhile.

We had a private tour for our family of four so the guide and driver took special attention to our own needs and interest. They went above and beyond to give us the history behind the spy bridge, Potsdam and added extra sightings of some architectural buildings as that was one of my husband's interests.

Been to Potsdam in the 1990's and there have been many changes. I prefer the older style but the changes have been mostly for tourist.

The tour guide Axel was very informative and engaging and took his time to explain in depth what we were seeing and the history behind every place. He was very friendly and easy to communicate with and made the tour pleasant and enjoyable. We highly recommend Axel and this tour!

The tour guide Axel made a nice guided tour for us to Potsdam from Berlin. We were a diverse group of (extended) family members of nine, so it was nice and easy to be picked up at our hotel. The guide was knowledgeable and easy to understand.

<p>Wonderful tour, our guide was knowledgeable and great. I’d have like more time and a little input into how we managed the day. We walked the grounds of San soucci - interesting, but my wife would have preferred 30 minutes shopping in town. Rest was great.</p>
