Sightseeing Tours, Guided Tours & Discoveries

Berlin and Potsdam have such an abundance of sightseeing choices that deciding which places to visit is often like choosing between children.

I focus on my guests’ interests and then design an itinerary just for them. Art, architecture, archaeology, a river cruise, a park, symphony concert, opera, and jazz are just the beginning of the options. Would you prefer an overview of the city’s eventful history? Or, if you’ve visited Berlin previously, would you prefer to experience something new?

The tour itineraries I develop are as carefully planned as my events. But, because I know the city and area so well, we can also be spontaneous if a wonderful, unexpected opportunity arises.

In all things, I strive to think creatively to give my guests a unique and lasting memory of their stay. My services are based on a comprehensive experience of organizing several world congresses, global company meetings, smaller VIP private groups, as well as families and friends traveling together. (See also reference list.) If you’re interested in a one-of-a-kind experience in Berlin and Potsdam, please contact me. I hope to welcome you to Berlin!
