Amazing tour with Berndt! We are a family of 5....youngest being 5 and this was the perfect way for us to learn everything about Berlin! It was so easy to navigate around the highlights tour, the time just flew by! We found the start point easily, got kitted out with our bikes and helmets and hit the road so to speak! Berndt was so knowledgeable and was so mindful of the kids and what to show or tell them!

Really good tour with great guide who knew his stuff. Long enough that it fills part of the day but not too long it gets overwhelming. Some really interesting info that is relayed in a brilliant and fascinating way that makes the tour brilliant

The tour is a good opportunity to explore the city. We saw a lot, experienced a lot and got off where we felt like it.
