Our family recently visited Berlin (August 2022) to reconnect with my Father's East Prussian/Lithuanian roots. Our tour guide for "Explore Berlin: Top Attractions Walking Tour", Maria N. was amazing, truly passionate about the history of Berlin, and very informative! We had a great time!! (My original post went unpublished, until now!)
We had a splendid time in Germany, I personally enjoyed the Berlin Wall Tour. My main joy came from the happiness, laughter and enjoyment of all our friendly tour members. The leader of the pack, Miguel, did a fantastic job. May God bless them all and thank you for setting this trip together. Everything was perfect.
The coordination of the whole tour was smooth and efficient. Our tour guide was excellent and the team covered all the featured landmarks based on the itinerary, and didn't miss a single one. I expected the tour to be memorable because I reviewed and chose it based on the sites to be visited. Being a fan of history, I especially enjoyed the Berlin Wall and the emphasis on its importance. Our tour guide did a great job in making things run smoothly. The weather cooperated so it’s a plus. The team was fun to be with and Be Original Tours really did a great job on this tour.
The tour guide was very professional, the information he provided was very valuable and detailed about the history of the Cold East Communist Berlin, questions were accommodated perfectly. Wouldn’t have preferred other types of tour than this. Just the right tour for the right price. Very pleasant experience, especially the Berlin Wall memorial. Would love to give five stars to Be Original Tours.
My wife and I just returned from the Berlin Wall Tour and we had an absolutely wonderful time. Great itinerary. The history of each tour feature was well explained by the guide, Artur. Other tour staff were also amazing. We had a great time. Thank you, Be Original Tours.
