Why choose this Berlin tour ?
Christmas Special – From 14 Nov to 22 Dec:
We add to our regular tour a special visit to the city’s one and only Medieval Christmas market! Experience the charm of Friedrichshain with live performances, handcrafted treasures, and a cozy cup of Gluhwein (mulled wine) to warm your journey.
East Berlin is a true melting pot and we have created an itinerary that explores the foods, events, and people who have helped shape the artistic neighborhood of Friedrichshain.
From the traditional Döner Kebabs that have been a Berlin mainstay since the end of World War 2 to the introduction of new Middle Eastern dishes from the 2015 refugees, we discover 6 food stops that represent the rich tapestry of Berlin cuisine which sets it apart as an international gastronomic hub.
Try the delicious Vietnamese TyTy Tacos – an exciting blend of Vietnamese flavours and German ingredients and 3 different Beers.
Part food tour, part historical and cultural experience, you’ll discover the true face of Berlin.
