a city tour of a different kind, gladly again

Our guide was very open-minded and everyone quickly got into conversation. In addition to the locations directly in Potsdam, which were reached on foot and by bus and for which the guide always had an interesting history, the own experiences and experiences of all tourers also flowed in. This way, every tour will be unique. As you can see, we like to remember the different kind of city tour, in which, despite the fluctuating weather between wet and dry, the time flew by and we would recommend the tour to anyone who is interested in our history. It was also an experience for our younger daughter, although she did not experience this time herself. The guide had always been aware of this, with questioning eyes he went out again and with the help of small attentions the time at that time even came within reach. Gladly again!

If you want to get to know more about Potsdam than the palaces, this is the place for you. It is several kilometers on foot past buildings and places of the history of Potsdam from 1945. The tour guide has put together an interesting tour. The information on each point was interesting and he conveyed it without judging post-war history, which was very nice.

Best Guided walk in Berlin - and many other places, too.

Over the past couple of weeks, my wife and I have done a number of guided walks in several European capitals. Holger Raschke, founder of Berlins Taiga, was easily the best of the bunch. We picked him to talk to us about life in the former E. Germany and guide us through East Berlin - the Red Metropolis, as he calls it. Holger's knowledge is encyclopaedic and personal: he grew up in Potsdam and can talk from memory about things like receiving gift parcels from relatives in the West. Where was he on the night the Wall came down? What were his parents doing? It's a very different perspective from the run-of-the-mill young tour guides used by the big companies. Along the way we also visited several places that ordinary tours don't bother with but which are spectacular, culminating in the Russian War Memorial at Treptower Park. Truly remarkable and I was humbled to have visited. Holger is personable and attentive, making sure that my 70-year old wife was comfortable at all times.
