About this activity

We are the only Fun and Politically Incorrect walking tour in Berlin. Unlike free walking tours that stick to formal lectures and polite storytelling, this Private Berlin History Tour takes you back to the origins of Berlin, exploring how a small medieval trading settlement grew into one of Europe’s most powerful capitals.

Expect dark humor and stories about emperors, rulers, merchants and the people who shaped Berlin long before it became the city we know today.

Starting in the historic heart of Berlin, we explore the medieval origins of the city and the historic Nikolaiviertel, uncovering stories of early trade, power struggles, political intrigue & questionable rulers.

This tour gives you a more personal and flexible experience, with a pace suited to your group, more interaction with your guide and plenty of room for questions and deeper conversations. So, book your private experience now and explore the city’s origins with us.
