Description

This tour offers the opposite of a standard sightseeing ride. You will hear a colorful mix of unusual tales from different centuries, many of which are unknown even to locals.

Ride peaceful side streets, through parks, and along scenic bike paths as your guide narrates Berlin’s hidden history with fascinating facts and background information. Highlights include abandoned bear cages, mystical creatures near ancient monasteries, “magical” stones with global connections, and a satirical giant figure atop a former newspaper building.

Your tour starts in Nikolaiviertel, just five minutes from the TV Tower at Alexanderplatz. Begin where Berlin’s history began and experience a route designed to surprise and intrigue.

The FREE BERLIN CONCEPT means each tour is unique. Guides create their own routes based on the group’s interests, current events, and Berlin’s evolving culture, ensuring no two tours are the same.

Private tours are available. Contact us to customize your starting time, route, and enjoy a tailored experience.
