    “I recently booked a private tour with Jonny in Berlin and what a great time we had! Jonny was able to explain complex events in history with ease and in an interesting way. We really enjoyed learning all there was to Berlin's history and Jonny was great at creating a fun, entertaining and insightful tour for us. Highly recommended.”

    “Jonny's tours are packed full of insight, and they are an absolute must if you are visiting Berlin. He is a warm and engaging guide, who will take you to the city's must-see sights, share fascinating stories about its history, and share his favourite spots in Berlin too. I'd recommend to anyone who wants to get to know this city.”

    “We would highly recommend Whitlam's Berlin Tours. We haven't visited Berlin in a long time so wanted to reacquaint ourselves with this wonderful city.

    We were greeted by Jonny at our hotel and instantly warmed to him. He has a wealth of knowledge and isn't afraid to inject humour when appropriate.

    He also shared some great recommendations of places to go after our tour.

    We have already recommended Whitlam's Tours to ours friends and will definitely be looking Jonny up when we return to Berlin.”

Frequently asked questions

about the Classic Berlin Sightseeing & Highlights Private Tour

Do we go inside any museums?

There’s just so much to see on your 3-hour private tour that museums are best left for after the tour has ended. Let us know after you book if you’re interested in a particular museum, and we’ll adapt your itinerary to make it easy for you to visit.

Is there a break on the tour?

Yes, if you want to we will make sure to take a short break for coffee and cake or a sandwich to keep your energy up as you discover Berlin.

Where does the tour finish?

The exact plan for your Classic Berlin Sightseeing & Highlights Tour is up to you. We have a plan in mind, but we can change it up to suit your needs. Got a booking to visit the Reichstag after the tour? No problem! Want to settle in for traditional German food like Schnitzel or Käsespätzle afterwards? We can make it happen. Just tell us after you book your tour, or even tell your guide on the day.

Do we need public transport passes for this tour?

You might need to purchase a subway ticket to get to the centre of town. Your guide will meet you at your hotel and make sure you have the right ticket, so no there’s need to battle with the machines yourself.
