Amazing
All the major I see and other stuff they were really great stopped for washroom breaks. We had a 2 Hour Dr. into the city very friendly and patient.
via Viator
Very uncomfortable journey
Trip and the guide itself was good, the transportation is very uncomfortable, very small sits and no legroom, they advertise Bus transport and if they do not have enough people to join, they send the small 15 passengers van, to sit for more then 3 hrs is very uncomfortable.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words about our guide. Regarding transportation, we use both vans for small-group tours and coach buses when larger groups are booked. We are not sure about your home country, but by European standards, a latest-model Mercedes-Benz van is considered a high-quality and comfortable form of transportation. We also wonder whether you feel comfortable with the standard legroom on an airplane, or whether you usually travel first class. For future activities, we recommend basing your expectations on the tour description. Should you require a specific type of vehicle or additional space, please consider booking a private tour, where transportation options can be selected according to your preferences. Safe travels!

It reminds me something good
it's not a deep dive academic experience and it doesn't try to be. But that's not always what you need. Sometimes you just want a relaxed, well organized day that lets you see a beautiful city without any of the usual headaches and for that, it was excellent.

Berlin Finally...
The journey from Warnemünde Cruise Port to Berlin takes time, so plan on a full day. However, the timetable was handled professionally. The guide managed to show us several key locations, such as the Reichstag and Brandenburg Gate etc, without feeling rushed.

History of Berlin Impress me
Went on this with few friends and yeah, Berlin is big, busy, and buzzing exactly the kind of city we hoped to see. Traffic was bit heavy when we arrived, but that's expected. It is a proper day rather than a rushed visit.
