Our tour guide Mark was very friendly, knowledgeable and accomodating. He made the tour extremely interesting and entertaining! Mark has a great grasp on this battle, and he amazed us with how much information he packed into the hour. Even after the tour concluded, we enjoyed continuing our discussion with him at length with the many questions my husband had. Professional and thorough tour that included the scope and sequence of this intense battle to the very heart of Berlin!
