London and Berlin Hostels > Generator Berlin Hostel >Tours

The New Berlin Walking Tour

A free walking tour (you may tip at the end if you liked it) picks up daily at 10.15 am from the reception.
This 3.5 hour English-language walking tour goes deeper than just introducing the sites: we delve into the city’s amazing history, from the darkest hours to the brightest moments. We start off at the symbol of Germany: the Brandenburg Gate. From there we follow the line of the Wall, through the Nazi Government District to Checkpoint Charlie. After a coffee break we head through the 1920s Cabaret Mile, over Berlin’s grandest square – Gendarmenmarkt – to Museum Island. The tour concludes in the beautiful surroundings of the Lustgarten – the old royal gardens - in the heart of the city, a stone’s throw from some of the best museums in the world.

The walking tour covers all the main sites, such as:

  • Pariser Platz
  • The Brandenburg Gate
  • The Reichstag
  • The new Holocaust Memorial
  • Hitler’s Bunker
  • Luftwaffe HQ
  • The 17. June Memorial
  • The Berlin Wall
  • The Former SS Headquarters
  • Checkpoint Charlie
  • The Former Red Light District
  • Gendarmenmarkt
  • Bebelplatz
  • The Book Burning Memorial
  • The Old Royal Boulevard
  • Neue Wache
  • The TV Tower
  • Museum Island
...and more!
