Alternative Berlin Experience

Berlin's Dynamic Culture & Lifestyle Fascinates Everyone!

Creative, tolerant, multi-cultural and liberal. No other city balances tradition & trends, density & open space, underground & cosmopolitan like UNESCO's "City of design".

On our premier alternative tour of Berlin we step off the tourist trail and explore the entire cultural landscape from a local perspective. From alternative & underground to urban and cosmopolitan, we'll compare the many flavours, colours and vibe of the East & West Berlin neighbourhoods.
