MY SERVICE   


Just arrived in Berlin? Let's first have a walk to get a feel for the city!

You can see the historical sights along the Avenue Unter den Linden, Isle of Museums to the Hackesche Market, the Cathedrals and the Synagogue. Berlin's new attractions are contemporary, discover them walking with me from the Centralstation (Hauptbahnhof) via Reichstag building to the Potsdamer Platz.

Do you like shopping or art galleries? It's a pleasure along the Friedrichstrasse with its beautiful new quarters or on the Boulevard "Ku-damm" with its charming boutiques, especially in the side streets, around Hackesche Market and in Berlins neighbourhood.   

In the evening you must go and see one of the cabarets or musicals and experience one of the many famous nightclubs.

On the following day we can do a tour through Greater Berlin by motor vehicle, finishing by boat along the rivers and canals.

Not enough yet? You can go on a relaxing excursion to Potsdam, the town of romantic gardens and beautiful palaces or a trip to the Spreewald.

Are you interested? As your professional tourist guide in Berlin and Brandenburg and tour guide in Germany, my intention is to make your time over here exciting, informative and very memorable.

Here's wishing you a heartfelt welcome to Berlin and to Germany. Let's plan it together! Herzlich willkommen!
