“Thus is such a great, fun way for seeing the city in a short space if time. We were 2 adults and a 16 year old. my son loved it. I would have preferred a bit more history as mostly the basics covered. We saw all the main highlights around the brandemburg gate, museum island, checkpoint charlie etc but didn't have time for east side gallery. make sure you bring gloves if you're doing it in the winter - we were freezing!”
