"We went on this tour with Mike and we were all impressed with Mike's knowledge and his passion. Mike was a very clear speaker and explaned this in such detail we were breath-taken with what this guy knows..." Keith, Wakefield, 20th Jan '12
A very interesting and well thought through tour which my friend and I thoroughly enjoyed. Barnaby was a very knowledgeable guide, full of surprises, with an infectious enthusiasm for his subject. The loan of a hat was very much appreciated as it was quite cold. If we had been there longer we would definitely have taken another tour.
I went on this trip as part of a stag do. Given that there were a lot of us I wanted to hear beforehand that the tour would be suitable for us. The correspondence with the company was great, they continued to stay in contact with us giving us contact telephone numbers for our guide on the day. The night out itself was fantastic, we went to loads of great bars and the guides shepherded along a big group of us really well. Thanks for a great night!!
I really appreciated how he took the time to wait for all the 'stragglers' to catch up and checked several times that he was speaking loud enough and that all could hear!
Thanks Jamie

We both enjoyed the informative tour to the Sachsenhasen Concentration Camp but we would not have enjoyed it as much if Mike had not been the tour guide. He was courteous, funny and full of facts. Will always remember this tour as Mike gave an amazing insight into what happened in the camp. Will return to Berlin and take other tours.

An absolutely brilliant and insightful tour conducted by an articulate, knowledgeable and humorous guide. I can certainly recommend Insider Tours and Jamie to anyone visiting Berlin who wants to pack in as much Berlin history as they can and only have a limited amount of time in which to do it.

WOW! A great way to cap off our stay in Berlin! Our guide, Jamie was absolutely amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable and is very passionate about Berlin. The tour itself was excellent, cant fault it at all and even though it was cold, Jamie kept our minds off it throughout! I wouldn't even bother with any other company, Insider Tours are simply the best and again a big thanks to Jamie for making our trip that extra bit special!

Having experienced an Insider Tour with the legend that is Brian a few years ago (where i learnt more than i ever did in a history lesson), Insider Tours were first choice for a return visit to Berlin. Michael was an excellent guide with outstanding knowledge on the subject of the Third Reich. Even the freezing cold did not deter him from running over! Simply cannot recommend Insider Tours enough.

I chose to use Insider Tours again after two very impressive previous walks. I came back to Berlin with my sister, who was last 'here' in 1975. David was a wonderful guide who explained the history of the City beautifully from its origins, up the fall of the wall and some of its present day significant sights. David is a perfect host, witty and has the ability to make you feel at ease and enjoy and learn at the same time. Insider Tours should be the number one walking tour on anyones visit to Berlin. Miss it and you'll be sorry !!

An interesting 4 hour walk, covering the history of the wall, but also seeing much of the city by bus, train and by feet. Mike is a both knowing and entertaining guide. After a 4 hour walk, expect to be tired, but an experience of a lifetime richer. Extremely good value for money.

The tour far exceeded my expectations. Tarek was a fabulous guide; very knowledgeable, funny and courteous. This was the perfect introduction to one of the world's great cities. 'Highly recommended!
