My wife and I had a fantastic 5-6 hour walking tour of Berlin focusing on the Third Reich, Jewish history and the Cold War. This was the highlight of our time in Germany and perhaps the best tour we have ever taken. Our tour guide, Bernhard, was extremely informative and really brought all of the history to life. He was... More

My husband and I only had a few days in Berlin. We knew that we did not have enough time to really see this wonderful city....especially if we tried to do so on our own. After reading many reviews about many companies that offer tours with private guides and drivers, it was our good fortune to choose Humboldt Tours. We... More

Living in Berlin, I wanted to know more about the city I live in. A friend recommended me this tour and I was delighted : that was exactly what I expected, and I learned a lot of small detail about Berlin that I am sure I would not have learned somewhere else.

A great Berlin private tour, with sympathetic and professional guide. I learned a lot and enjoyed myself at the same time. What more could I ask?

We visited Berlin in Easter and got in touch with Humboldt Tours, requesting a personalised tour of the city. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, our guide Bernhard Schlegelmilch was very well prepared. He knew lots of interesting facts and provided us with an insight to the city that is not available in most guided tours. I would definitely recommend it... More

We visited Berlin at the start of April and contacted Humboldt Tours, asking for a personalised tour focussing largely on World War II, as this was our teenage sons' main area of interest. Our guide Arja was brilliant, engaging the entire family and giving us a brilliant insight into the history of this fascinating city and how it continues to... More

Our guide arrived at our hotel at the time promised and took us on a very informative tour of Berlin being very careful to give special attention to our expressed interests. The tour was definitely not of the "Scripted and hurried" variety. I would highly recommend HUmboldt tours to the discriminating and seasoned traveller.

I visited Berlin with my wife and 2 teenage children in December. The city is fantastic with so much to see and do but undoubtedly the highlight was having Bernhard as our guide. His knowledge is fantastic but more importantly he is a very special person on the human level. My teenage daughters instantly felt comfortable with Bernhard and were... More

We enjoyed a 5 day trip to Berlin in November with 32 students and 4 accompanying teachers and had the pleasure of being guided by Bernhard for two of those days (Third Reich tour, Sachsenhausen, GDR museum, Jewish life tour). Our students (all between 16 and 18) were absoultely mesmerised by Bernhard and his interesting, knowledgeable and enthusiasctically delivered stories... More
