Excelente visita, las explicaciones a cada paso en una ciudad con tanta historia... nos mantuvieron todo el recorrido sin poder dejar de prestar atención ni un minuto. Totalmente recomendable

Less personal opinions from guide. Lack of historical reviews. Guide did not give relevant information, seemed to be exhausted from long night. Effective duration of tour was about 2 hours

The tour guide Marcel was very personable with everyone of the trip and well versed into the detailed history of the sights and stories of the tour. It’s a casual walking tour and good introduction into the Wall area in central Berlin
