  • Follow the traces of the divided city, family dramas, escape attempts, barbed wire, borders, and fatalities
  • Discover the places where people leapt to freedom, built tunnels, and went to pray

Full description
The history of the Berlin Wall still seems incredible today. A visit to Bernauer Straße is therefore a must-see during a trip to Berlin. Only here can you see the former division of the city with your own eyes as you visit the death strip with two walls and the watchtower. But above all, it is the personal, often tragic stories of divided Berlin that touches many people. Embark on a small journey through time to discover places where people lived, hoped, and freed themselves from the dictatorship. Discover exciting facts about the border, which divided Europe and even the world for a long time until the people courageously put up resistance against the deceitful regime.

Our guide was extremely knowledgable and this was my favorite part of my entire trip to Berlin. I am very happy to have gone on this walk, and I came away from the experience learning so much more about the Berlin Wall! It was an incredibly interesting hour, I wish it lasted longer!

I can only comment on the German tour as the booked English one was cancelled at short notice. That whole process was very well handled by Get your Guide. As a native German speaker I found the tour fascinating with lots of interesting background information and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Merci à Wolfgang pour sa passion et la clarté de ses explications. Il nous a raconté l'histoire du Mur mais aussi de cette ville fracturée dont les cicatrices peuvent encore être vues et touchées. Wolfgang a su passionner toute notre famille, de 11 à 88 ans. Je recommande vivement une visite avec lui. La précision et le charme de son français vosu enchanteront !
