    Berlin with Betty !

    "Our tour of Berlin with Betty was very interesting and entertaining. Our guide was very cheerful and funny. The tour wasn't like a long history lesson, but rather very engaging, sharing facts and amusing stories about Berlin during the Nazi era and when the city was divided in two. The tour was interspersed with architectural, political, and historical commentary. Thank you for the wonderful tour!"

    Tour of Germany

    "Boyd does a wonderful job of showing things and places you wouldn't typically see and weaves stories with an equally great historical perspective into his orations. It is obvious he knows the city and its history and we would highly recommend him for any tour he offers. He is also very accommodating in adding or modifying things you might want to see. So very happy with our experience!"

    We loved our information-packed afternoon.

    "We had a great afternoon with Pablo. He’s incredibly well informed, and even though we thought we knew so much about the history of the city, we learned so much more. He’s funny and flexible and gave us a lot of information about other things to do, see and restaurants for the rest of our journey. "

    Marina about Claudia

    "Claudia is a wonderful guide! Very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and open to questions. As someone that grew up in Berlin, she brings a valuable first hand perspective. We really appreciate her sharing her own experiences with us. Berlin’s history doesn’t fall into an easy, straightforward timeline. Claudia is a great contextualizer, which is important to put things into perspective. Your tour has been one of the highlights of our trip! Thank you! Marina "

Explore the History of WWII Berlin

Walk through the pages of history on a private WWII Berlin tour. The city's streets hold profound stories of conflict, resilience, and rebirth. A personal WWII Berlin experience with a local storyteller is the best way to connect with its powerful past. Your journey awaits.

  • The Reichstag: A WWII Berlin Icon

    The Reichstag building, with its iconic dome, was central to the turmoil of WWII Berlin. The 1933 fire here was a pivotal event used by the Nazis to consolidate power. Its capture by Soviet forces in 1945 symbolized the ultimate fall of the Third Reich.

  • Hitler's Bunker: Final Days of WWII Berlin

    The site of Hitler's Führerbunker, where he spent his final days, is now an unassuming parking lot. A private WWII Berlin tour with a local guide can bring the chilling history of this location to life, explaining the dramatic events that unfolded beneath the surface.

  • WWII Berlin: A Culture of Remembrance

    Berlin's culture is deeply shaped by a duty to remember its past. Poignant sites like the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe and the Topography of Terror museum are not just tourist spots; they are vital parts of the city's soul and a key part of any WWII Berlin tour.

  • The Resistance Hero of WWII Berlin

    Claus von Stauffenberg was a German army officer and a leading member of the resistance. His daring but failed attempt to assassinate Hitler in July 1944, known as the 20 July Plot, is commemorated at the Bendlerblock memorial center in Berlin.

  • A Taste of Post-WWII Berlin: Currywurst

    Born from the rubble and resourcefulness of post-WWII Berlin, the Currywurst is a legendary local snack. A Berliner, Herta Heuwer, supposedly invented it in 1949 using ketchup and curry powder obtained from British soldiers. A must-try taste of local history!
