About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Wadez190 contributionsBrilliant walking tour with Hannah on NYEWe had a brilliant walking tour with Hannah on NYE. The group was the perfect size and I felt like Hannah was very knowledgeable and really gripped my attention for the full tour - sometimes I can lose attention as the tour progresses. Despite road closures due to being NYE Hannah still completed the full allocated time we had. She told a beautiful story at the end that actually brought tears to my eyes - I'm not giving it away but thank you for a wonderful and interesting tour I truly enjoyed all of it.Written 2 January 2025
- caseyy20170 contributionsGreat tour for our family!Our tour guide was amazing. We loved doing this tour with our kids. The guide, Hannah, answered SO many questions. She was extremely knowledgable, and had pictures to show examples. It was a great experience. Highly Recommend!Written 2 January 2025

- 828kellys0 contributionsEngaging Walk Through TimeWe highly recommend this tour. Scott was very engaging and encouraged questions throughout our walk. In Berlin, there are plenty of signs and information posted from which tourists can glean information, but it was so nice to spend a couple of hours with a guide who has studied this era and where you could actually step into the places where history happened!Written 9 November 2024
- Jules2170 contributionsBrandenburg Gate to Checkpoint Charlie! 👍An comprehensive overview of Hitler’s rise to power, the end of WW2 and the building and the liberation of the people on the East side of the wall. Roshanna was an excellent guide - her knowledge of this time period and sites along the way. Trainee guide Steve came along too - fabulous insights from both. Visited many historic places along the way including Hitler’s ‘burial’ place!Written 30 October 2024
