About Tour Guide Tal G.
I came to Berlin in 2018 to pursue my doctorate in neuroscience. However, it's not only my studies that have kept me here. The city's fascinating history, international character, and unparalleled sense of freedom have all stolen my heart. I'm especially interested in exploring Berlin's history and examining German society, culture, and memory. I am specialized in Jewish-German history. In addition, I am a certified guide in the Berlin Guides Association.
I'd be delighted to introduce you to the city through my eyes and share my unique perspective. Join me on a memorable journey through Berlin, where I'll show you everything that makes it one of the world's most captivating destinations. Discover the city's intricate past, present, and future as we explore its cultural and societal depths.

Third Reich tour
Berlin
3 hours 30 min
Berlin's history is deeply marked by the Nazi era, a brief but devastating period from 1933 to 1945. Although almost every historical tour in Berlin will touch the topic, the Third Reich tour offer the full focus about Hitler's rise to power and the Nazi regime's destructive impact. Although much physical evidence was destroyed, numerous historical traces remain throughout the city. Additional sites can be added upon request: the Olympic Stadium, the Russian War Memorial, and Tempelhof Airport

Hi, I'm Juan from the sunny island of Majorca, I first visited Berlin on a sunny Easter in 1999, when only ten years after the wall came down, so the traces of the division were even more visible than now. Someone recommended me, before you decide to live in Berlin, you should spend a winter first, and so I did. It was only going to be a couple of years and here I am, after 25 and having seen the changes the city has undergone in the new millennium. Berlin is unique in the world because has an amazing history mostly in the last 100 years. After being 80 % destroyed in the 2WW many people thought the city will not make it and would be placed somewhere else. But like Phoenix from the ashes it become again the city that it was before but that was not that easy . Now you have a collage of historical buildings, modern architecture (some nice & many not that nice), dozens of small cities called neighbourhoods & the tracks of the destruction and division. Nowadays is the city where everything is possible and the feeling of freedom and tolerance is stronger than never before. One of my favorite pastimes is exploring the Berlin landscape, always on the lookout for the latest exhibitions, cultural events and hidden green spaces. As a Berlin aficionado, I've delved into the city's rich history, from its classical roots to its modern transformations. Whether it's iconic landmarks or little-known gems, I love sharing my knowledge with curious explorers. And when it comes to neighborhoods, I know them like the back of my hand. So if you want to immerse yourself in Berlin's culture, history and hidden treasures, I'm here to make your experience unforgettable. Let's explore this dynamic city together! I offer tours in English and Spanish.

Dear travellers, I'm Janna, a professional, "senior" Berlin tour guide since 1994, so I can truly say I have a lot of expertise, experience and qualification for an in-depth view of Berlin. German history is challenging and my job, as I perceive it, is to be open about our complicated and partly truly dark history. However, we can also just have a fun day with your family or enjoy the museums. My topics are wide-spread, and we can work out a customized tour with your ideas and interests. We can also just meet, I get a feel for you and devise a tour on the spot. I'm happy with supporting you to organize any bookings of show or museum tickets, or restaurants, plus van or bus transportation, airport transfers. I also like tour guiding in Germany and Europe. If I'm not guiding, I love creating art, dancing and enjoying the rich cultural life of Berlin, and the quiet countryside around Berlin. Looking forward to meet visitors from all over the world! See you in Berlin!
