“Our tour with Kai Janssen was a high point of our trip to Berlin. His knowledge of German history, from medieval to present, was exceptional, as was his patience with our constant questions. Despite the comfortable pace, we covered more of Berlin than I could have imagined. If you only have one day in Berlin, I'd take this tour, and then hit Julian's evening biking food tour over on Airbnb. Highly recommended!”
