A great introduction to the city of Berlin.

We took a 4 hour bike tour of Berlin with Markus, starting and finishing at Bornheimerstrasse. Our guide was pleasant, interactive and informative, filling us in on historic, geographical and architectural detail and showing a great variety of sights during our tour. This was a great orientation activity on day one of our visit.

Interesting, nice and enjoyable!

It was great to discover some new places we've never been to before. The guide was very kind, and told things in a very interesting way. Furthermore, she showed us a few popular places, without doing every single popular place of Berlin. And when we were at a popular place, she didn't tell us the cliché stories everybody knows about, but she focused on the little details that are unknown. She also took us to the little and quiet streets of Berlin, which we enjoyed !

Berlin by citybike - brilliant, recommend it to anyone

I've never done a better city tour with my family, wife and 2 sons aged 15 and 18. The city tour was very individual, and went according to the wishes of the participants. The progress could be influenced by us. The tour guide was very competent and spoke also of personal experience. He gave us tips for the rest of our stay in Berlin.
