We booked our tour through Viator.com and our tour guide, Axel came to us through Sightseeing Point. Our driver was Roberto and in the very new, clean Mercedes van he was able to find parking places right in the middle of everything, every single time. Axel was amazing. He is very easy to understand and totally interesting to listen to. He was a walking encyclopedia on Berlin, before and after WW II. We saw an amazing amount of the city not only in the van, but on foot. Neighborhoods, monuments, government buildings and bombed out churches. He held our attention throughout the entire tour and gave us frequent bathroom and food breaks when we needed them. Just can't say enough positive things about this tour and it was worth every penny!.dominique7137
