Berni was fantastic! She got to know us and adapted to our style very quickly. It felt as though we were wondering around Berlin with a close friend.

We toured Berlin with Darren, and over our four hour tour we saw so many interesting sites and locations, including the "obvious" places on all tours, but also some unique spots of intellectual and historical significance. Truly a private, stylized tour that we thoroughly enjoyed!!!
