This tour was great except the audio portion barely acknowledged the sites that memoralized the atrocities of World War II. No mention of The Memorial of Murdered Jews even though we drove past it. Only slight mention of The Topography of Terror.

I took this tour with my husband and two children, aged 6 and 8 on a Saturday. Went to catch the bus that was supposed to have a 16 minute frequency but there had been a problem and the bus took half an hour to arrive. The firs seat we took had terrible audio, glitches, weird sound, bad signal, couldn't hear anything, but changed seats after a couple of stops and it was ok. First part of the trip was ok, nice views up to Alex, there the bus stopped for at least 20 minutes under the blazing sun, after a long time someone came up and explained something in german, waited a bit longer. Finally the tour resumed but it turned out a big part of it had been chopped off because there was some sort of demonstration at Brandenburg Tor, we had to take an alternate route that collapsed with a traffic jam. So it was super slow, nothing much to see, no audio guide of course, kids bored and complaining. It was a pain and after a good 30 minutes of that and having made no more than ten blocks we ju

Identified by hotel concierge as best city tour operator and would agree the routing and the sights identified were excellent. They do two routes with the yellow route covering most of the city sights and the red route picking up two really good stops showing a section of the old wall with watch tower and the section of wall with artwork over a 1300m stretch. The old wall and watchtower also have a fabulous visitor centre which is well worth spending time at.

Good to get a basic overview and introduction to the city and see some of the famous sites . Was included in the city pass welcome card.

I brought the Berlin welcome card all inclusive - overall all the other places we got to use my tickets were great apart from this vendor. The man at the shop where you are told to activate ride ticket told me they did not use this card, and I needed to find another tourist office, he was at Kurfürstendamm nr 216. On my photo it clearet States we should go there. So dissappointing, we were looking forward but many other reviews say this one is not great, sadly only one out of about 10 other vendors.
