Experience Overview:
Berlin’s Must-see History Sites Private Black Van Half-day TourAfter meeting at your hotel this private Berlin tour starts at the majestic Reichstag building, which has long stood at the centre of German history.
From there, explore the sprawling Pariser Platz and the famous Brandenburg Gate — once a symbol of German division, now a national symbol of peace and unity.
Next, head to the emotional Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe before walking past the almost-forgotten, unmarked site of Hitler’s bunker.
Follow along a preserved section of the Wall to reach the Topography of Terror museum. No visit to Berlin is complete without a visit to Checkpoint Charlie, of course — the best-known crossing point between East and West Berlin during the Cold War.
You’ll then head over to the Gendarmenmarkt, the most beautiful square in Berlin, and along Bebelplatz, past the Nazi book burning memorial and the restored State Opera.
Finally finish up at Museum Island, one of the most important museum sites in Europe.
