On this 2-hour bike tour, the main goal is for students to see plenty of classic Berlin spots and landmarks from the saddle. It’s all about taking in the sights. We keep the stops intentionally short so that—even with limited time—you still get to experience a lot of Berlin.
About 80% of the tour is spent cycling, and you’ll be riding with one of our guides on selected, safe routes.
We select the routes of our tours carefully, and our guides receive specialist training in managing bike tours. We favour routes that lead away from the busy main roads of the city, and try wherever possible to stick to quiet streets and cycle paths, for maximum safety and enjoyment.
50% of Berlin households do not own a car, and travelling by bike or public transport is the norm here, which means that car drivers are used to cyclists.
The luminous orange vests worn by our bike guides and a volunteer at the back of the bike tour make us easy to spot on the roads. In Berlin it is possible to enjoy a safe and relaxed bike tour, including with children.
Our guides adapt the bike tours to weather conditions, participants’ interests, street closures and sometimes their own preferences. Changes and deviations are possible.
All Berlin on Bike public bike tours start at the Kulturbrauerei (means “Culture Brewery”) in the Prenzlauer Berg district. The brewery grounds have several entrances, the best way to get to us is through the archway at Knaackstraße 97. From the underground station Eberswalder Straße (underground line 2, three stops north of Alexanderplatz) it’s a 200-metre walk.
For private tours with your own bikes, the start can be arranged individually. Delivery of our bikes for your private bike tour is also possible for an additional charge – but this is usually only worthwhile for larger groups.
Many school classes visit us with 20 to 30 students and two accompanying teachers. In this case, we split the group and assign two guides.
Larger student groups are divided so that ideally no more than 15 students and one teacher are in each subgroup. This way, we can move safely through the city and make sure all students are included in the tour.
