Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We spend a lovely morning with Miha showing us the Christmas markets in Berln but in the process sharing much about the history of this lovely city"
"We had a fantastic Christmas Market Tour with Tiago. We did this on the first night we arrived. It was great to hit a few markets, try some of the best foods, and get our bearings. Tiago was very informative, has great taste, and he went out of his way to get us some great experiences and set us up with excellent information for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend."
"We arrived on a day 3 days before Christmas Eve to wind gales of up to 60km/h. Braving that near 0-deg celsius weather with children is no mean feat, so we arranged via text to meet at a nearby location to the original. Miha was so accommodating and understanding - he was also honest about what we could really see in winter, what to learn and gave a good insight to the places we visited. All in all, we saw almost all the major sights in the city - Brandenburg Gates, the Berlin Wall markers, the Memorial to the murdered Jews of Europe and even Parliament. Some historical churches, small shops and even 2 pitstops to get bratwurst and coffee! We even got a walk-through of Museum Island, the key castles which are now state buildings in between visiting the city's major Christmas markets. Miha is wonderful with the information and patient even for families with varying interests. He made a few quick edits on my queries for the booking and was flexible with what we wanted to see and do. Absolute delighted to have spent these 3 hrs with him! "

Feel the festive magic of Christmas in Berlin! The city glows with enchanting Christmas markets and yuletide cheer. Let a local guide show you the best spots. Your unforgettable Berlin Christmas tour awaits!
Germany's famous Christmas markets, or 'Weihnachtsmärkte', date back to the late Middle Ages. The tradition began with winter markets that allowed people to stock up on goods for the cold months, eventually evolving into the festive celebration we love today.
A Berlin Christmas market is a feast for the senses. Warm up with a mug of Glühwein (mulled wine) and savor traditional treats like Lebkuchen (gingerbread), roasted almonds, and the iconic Currywurst. Every bite is pure Christmas comfort.
Beyond the markets, Germans cherish traditions like the Advent wreath, lighting a new candle each Sunday before Christmas. Many families also bake festive 'Plätzchen' (cookies) together, filling their homes with the sweet scent of the holiday season.
One of Berlin's most beautiful Christmas markets is at Gendarmenmarkt square. Framed by stunning architecture, this market offers unique handcrafted goods, gourmet food, and live classical concerts, creating a truly magical Christmas atmosphere.
Forget crowded department stores. The best Christmas gifts are found at Berlin's festive markets. From handcrafted wooden toys to delicate glass ornaments, you can find unique presents that carry the special magic of a Berlin Christmas.

"Tiago showed us things we would have never been able to experience in Berlin! He was so knowledgeable, flexible, and tailored the tour to our interests- highly recommend!!"
"Miha was a great tour guide. He showed us lots of holiday markets and answered all of our questions about food and customs. Definitely saw and learned a lot more than we would of on our own."
"Don’t look any further, Miha is THE GUIDE to book for Berlin! History told in a fun local way, you won’t feel like you’re on a tour. It’s like hanging out with your friend you haven’t seen in a while, but you pick right back up from the last time you saw each other. We had a fabulous time wandering the city, hearing about history in a way that made it seem like we grew up here. Miha also gave us the best tips for local restaurants. Grab Miha as your guide and hit the streets!"
"Miha was an excellent guide providing the right mix of Xmas market experiences with a great knowledge of historical sites on the way. I highly recommend Miha for this type of Berlin walking tour. We will definitely be back for more. Thanks Miha from the Kiwis Abroad."
"My wife and I could not have been more pleased with the Berlin Christmas market tour that we took with Miha. Energetic, knowledgeable, funny, insightful, and thoughtful would be the terms that would sum up our time with him. We would definitely recommend that anyone who wants a custom tour of Berlin contact Miha!"
"I want to thank Miha so much for helping me organize a last minute tour for my mother in law and sister and friend. He was very prompt to reply. The women thoroughly enjoyed their first day in Berlin, and it gave them a great insight. "
"We arranged to meet Mihael on our first day in Berlin; we hoped he would help get our bearings. This he did and more. Michael was attentive to our purpose and provided a informed and interesting view of the culture, history and sights. We felt the time spent with him was very worthwhile indeed and considered it to be a great start to our city break. Thank you Mihael."
