Trip Summary
Map of Itinerary
Expand [+]

The city of Berlin has been in the midst of rapid regeneration in the last few years and in the west, super-modern buildings provide a backdrop for a dynamic and cosmopolitan city that it has a distinctly new millennial outlook. The east, meanwhile, is a model of twenty-first century urban development - the grey communist concrete has been replaced with gleaming new structures that look to the city's future rather than dwelling on the past. Enjoy a half day walking tour of Berlin with private English speaking guide. Discover Potsdam and Sansucci Palace with a shared tour.

Itinerary

Day 1 Berlin

Say Berlin and people immediately think of the Wall, even though it is over a decade since "Die Mauer" was broken down. But Berlin has much more to offer and is growing in popularity with tourists wanting something with a bit more grit than most European destinations. The city has been in the midst of rapid regeneration in the last few years and in the West super-modern buildings provide a backdrop for a dynamic and cosmopolitan city that is distinctly new millennium in outlook. The East meanwhile is a model of twenty-first century urban development - the grey Communist concrete has been replaced with gleaming new structures that look to the city's future rather than dwelling on the past.

Enjoy an airport transfer (Tempelhof/Tegel) with private vehicle and German speaking Driver.

The Sorat Ambassador Hotel (3*) is your door to the lively capital city. Right at Wittenbergplatz, with KaDeWe and Berlin's underground system on the doorstep. Kurfuerstendamm, Gedaechtniskirche Memorial church, Zoologischer Garten and Tiergarten are just a short walk away. You can even walk to Potsdamer Platz. In the middle of this exciting district, that's where you'll find the SORAT Hotel Ambassador, an unconventional retro-look hotel, with fun and esprit for the discerning guest.
