Funny, exciting, and provides many aha moments: "Poor but sexy?" is a fantastic tour!

5.00It was wonderful - once again! This tour was new, "Berlin - Poor but sexy?" across the East and Kreuzberg was interesting, entertaining, funny, and exciting; our guide Robert did an excellent job! The whole tour is truly highly recommended! A few years ago, I already did the tour along the Wall strip, which was also great - the tour had a different character, of course. I am sure: that was not my last tour with you!!
Perfect bike ride

5.00It was a very relaxed, informative and fun tour in beautiful weather and good to master even for permanent e-bike riders even with normal bikes. Our guide Anton was very nice and had a lot of information for us, but told everything very interesting and vividly! Anytime gladly back with Anton through Berlin!

5.00We were a 10 people group, teenagers and adults. We could book a French speaking guide upon request and were able to start the tour early in the morning. Communication was easy and nice during the whole pre-booking process. The tour was very interesting, the Guide was nice and new a lot about Berlin.
Excellent experience due to a great guide
