Discover Berlin’s Highlights by Bike
This bike tour through Berlin is ideal for first time visitors, as well as for history buffs.The Berlin Highlights Bicycle Tour takes in all the central sights of Berlin, and way more! Your guide will take you through Berlin’s fascinating history and show you hidden treasures you might miss on your own.
A leisurely Sightseeing Tour in Berlin through the city’s turbulent history
Our Berlin Highlights Bike Tour begins in Prenzlauer Berg, once a working class slum, now a trendy central neighbourhood for the chic and monied of the city. We explore its painstakingly restored historical apartment blocks that were built during the industrial era of the Wilhelminian boom.
Most popular places in Berlin – Berlin City Sightseeing by bike
First your guide will show you the former heart of Jewish Berlin where Jewish families started settling in the 17th century. After that, it’s off to the historical city centre, where Museum Island, Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag are just a few of the famous sights you will experience first hand. You’ll encounter remnants of Prussia’s glory, and traces left behind by the 40 years when the Cold War divided the city of Berlin, like Berlin’s iconic TV tower at Alexanderplatz.
Take a Sightseeing Tour through the Vibrant New City Centre
You will also see the rapidly changing contemporary landscape of the city, all constructed in the 30 years of reunited Germany. This includes the breathtaking architecture of the new government district but also the Holocaust Memorial and the reconstructed city palace, both places which pose questions about how Germany is dealing with its past.
