Languages: German Italian English

Go for an audio-guided tour into the heart of Germany’s capital city. Do you have an idea where to find a 360m long relief frieze that tells the history of the city? Can you imagine how an 80 tonne granite foundling boulder was transported to Berlin 200 years ago, which was then shaped into the city’s largest soup bowl?

Allow our Berlin experts Anna Guchinski and Karl Lehmann to accompany you on your audio-guided walk around Berlin’s historical city centre. Anna is an art historian very fond of pointing out minute details you would otherwise walk past without taking notice. Karl is basically at home on water; having grown up on cargo boats, he now escorts visitors to the city along the Spree river. Occasionally he does go ashore, though. That’s when he and Anna tour together, to accompany you and invite you to make fascinating discoveries in this city.

By the way: You can also give this acoustic city tour as a gift: As a download voucher for the audio guide in the smartphone app
