Alexanderplatz. This thematic tour begins here.
Karl-Marx Avenue. Karl-Marx-Allee was the best-known street in the GDR. Between Strausberger Platz and Frankfurter Tor there are numerous apartment blocks built in the socialist style of the 1950s.
Frankfurter Allee is one of the oldest traffic routes in Berlin. It is the extension of Karl-Marx-Allee.
STASI Museum (Former headquarters of the Ministry of State Security)
The Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Straße exemplifies the division of Berlin and the reunification of the German capital
A thought-provoking tour through Berlin’s historical sites, including the Berlin Wall and Brandenburg Gate. The guide was informative, but the tour could benefit from more personal interaction and depth.
As I was trying to book online, there was some question about whether the tour was in Spanish or English. So I called Viator and their staff assured me it was in English and booked two tickets. Ok, fine so far. But then, the morning of the tour we discovered that the directions on the confirmation email/ticket included two DIFFERENT meeting points. So, after wandering all over Alexanderplatz looking for the right group, I called the local number provided in the information sent to us with the booking (culturberlin or something like that) —- who told me they had no record of such a tour that morning! And could offer no help whatsoever, sorry! We resumed roaming around and finally found a couple of tour groups that looked like they might be the ones— indeed one was, but the tour guide confirmed the tour was in Spanish. So, no tour for us. Overall, this was a terrible and frustrating experience. I’m trying to figure out how to get my money back.
We did 3 tours. For all three we had Celia. It has been magnificent to have her as a guide. He made everything very pleasant and the explanations were great. We would do it again with her without hesitation!
We have done this tour with Celia, and she has accompanied us on two others: Sachsenhausen and Nazism. Exceptional, for the planning and for the development of each one of them. Very well explained and generous in answering the participants' questions. Although we booked through Civitatis, we want to highlight the work of Cultourberlin, and, in this case, of Celia. Grateful
Excellent historical information about the Cold War and the Berlin Wall
We had the tour with Celia and the truth is that it was incredible, she is a very good professional and entertaining.
Celia is a genius! The tour and her willingness were very good.

Helena an exceptional guide. He explained the Tour in a very instructive way
We were fortunate to have Helena as our guide. A great expert on history and excellent as a communicator. We left delighted. A 10
Excellent tour of Berlin.

Celia, thank you for an extraordinary tour, it has been a real pleasure. A great professional where she not only explained us but allowed us to reflect through history.
Excellent guide, excellent tour. Thanks Celia.
We did the tour with Celia and it was wonderful. Everything super well explained and enjoyable. Highly recommended!
Extraordinary Guide Celia. Explain, Interpellate, Guide!! Amazing!
Unbelievable, Juan is the bomb explains everything perfect, with very interesting data. I would certainly repeat the experience.
Fantastic tour of the Cold War, the Berlin Wall and the STASI Museum. Discovering on the ground a series of essential facts, sites and anecdotes from History is a wonderful experience. Thanks to Tino for his professionalism: a great guide.
Very good tour, interesting museum. The guide was Constantine, very good.
Helena is super friendly, knows a lot and you can tell she loves what she does.
Sam was an excellent guide. It led us to a unique experience. It was exciting to learn the historical details of the cold war. A time that marked tension in the world. I recommend this tour and our Sam Guide.
Excellent experience Celia our guide (also from Potsdam) was great, answered all our concerns with great kindness and great predisposition. I definitely recommend this tour
Very interesting and different tour. It is rating that Celia knows the subject well. It makes it enjoyable and very participatory. A way to get to know the history of the city better.
Wonderful. The guide very friendly and attentive. During the visit he provided us with a lot of interesting and important information to put the tour in context. I totally recommend it
Xanto delighted us with a very well explained tour, answering all the questions, getting 100% involved and pending at all times of the group. The visit to the central stasis and the northern memorial of the wall, spectacular. Thank you Xanto
Very interesting to know the life of Berliners at that time. Tremendous control of the Stassi and very well explained by Xanto
We were guided by Constantine! The experience was really unique and different, we took a beautiful memory of Berlin, full of anecdotes that we were told, while we came to the most emblematic places and remembered history. I recommend the tour and above all the guide, who kept our teenage children all the time super attentive and interested in his way of explaining!
The guide is very well documented. The explanations help you demystify the topic and learn the real story without taking sides. Excellent experience!
A very complete tour that puts you in perspective of the situation in Berlin and life at that time. I highly recommend it, it's a great experience.
Thank you so much, Tino, for telling us such a difficult story, but one that needs to be known so much. It was definitely worth it.
A great tour, in itself the history is fascinating, but it has been even more told by our guide Celia. We appreciate the passion and rigor in telling the story
Loved the tour! Celia has made me fully into the history of East Berlin through her explanations. Definitely a great hit. Thank you very much Celia 🫂
I booked reluctantly because the guided tours often do not provide a way, but this time the guide not only had extensive knowledge of the subject, but also knew how to communicate them very well. Definitely, thanks to the quality of the guide, we had an entertaining and enriching experience that I recommend to everyone
The guide was spectacular, rigorous in knowledge, at least in explanations and very friendly. Absolutely recommended
It is our second visit with cultist Berlin and great. We can only say that Helena has been a very professional guide. You can see that it is very trained and has made us awaken the interest in this city even more.
We have been travelling for over a month and Helena has been one of the best guides we have ever had. The tour changed the experience of the whole visit to Berlin and the perspective. 4 hours very well invested, and if you can, ask Helena! A Pro with knowledge that enriches and very clear and pointed explanations!
An amazing tour. Full of historical data and a lot of very interesting information, Helena with H a great Guide, gave us many tips to follow our tour of the city.
We loved the experience with Helena. It teaches you many of the secrets of the city from the Soviet perspective. 100% recommended.
Wonderful view with the Helena Guide. Very instructive and enjoyable. You can tell he knows the story and loves it. Best part of the trip.
Helena totally masters the subject, and explains everything in a pleasant and entertaining way. The tour takes 4 hours, but you get short. You can tell she's a ready woman, and she answers all your doubts.
Very good experience, Guide Juanma has been quite a discovery, how great! It has made us the Cold War Guide very enjoyable.
Fully recommended this tour by Juanma narrates it in a unique tone to understand how East Berlin lived until the fall of the wall, crowned with the guided tour of the Stasi. Exceptional
I loved it, everything with a lot of history, our guide Celia, was explaining everything in detail and curiosities.It was not just seeing a museum and the wall went much further, until making us feel like you were inside the story. Definitely highly recommended! Celia we hit in 10! Thank you so much for everything
Celia is an extraordinary guide: pleasant, rigorous, with an in-depth knowledge of the subject and who knows how to present it generously in terms of her time and the answer to all the questions we pose. An extraordinary professional; extraordinary experience.
Excellent tour, very well explained by the guide and visit to the Stasi museum with the wall help to understand well the conflict of the cold war
Very good. I would have liked to go to checkpoint Charlie and understand a little better how the Communist party was formed. But from there everything very well, the Super Guide, you can tell that he knew quite a lot about it.
Touring Berlin with Coltour guides is about understanding the history of a city still being built. The experience is very good and Andres is a Guide who easily takes the experience through all his knowledge
An excellent visit with a guide, Juan, who has not taken a tour of Berlin in the Cold War and the Stasi Museum, in which he has not told various anecdotes about the Cold War and the Berlin Wall, very well documented and in excellent communicator
The tour was very good, everything was well explained and the guide was very charismatic, but what we liked the least is that it won't last longer.
The visit exceeded all my expectations. The guide was a historian, he was highly trained and the information he transmitted was contrasted and solid, unlike many other tours where they tell superficialities or focus on general ideas. In addition, the guide was always open to answering questions and queries. Highly, highly recommended if you want to visit historical places with respect.
