Overview

This 5.5-hour guided bike tour is a full introduction to Berlin, with a long lunch break at a local beer garden. First-time visitors get their bearings, and returning visitors will still pick up something new.

Cross between former East and West Berlin, seeing Checkpoint Charlie and one of the few remaining sections of the Berlin Wall. Visit the site of Hitler's bunker and the Reichstag while your guide explains the legacy of the Third Reich. Ride through the Tiergarten and climb the Victory Column for views over the city, stop at a traditional beer garden for lunch, roll down Unter den Linden and finish with the Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island.

Choose a classic bike or an e-bike. Classic and e-bike riders share the same guide, route and group. Your licensed guide, bike, helmet, bike bag, map and Victory Column entry are included; lunch is paid separately, so bring euro cash or an EC card.

Tours start and end at our shop at the base of the TV Tower in Alexanderplatz.
