The food tour was a walk through East Berlin's immigrant communities including how and why communities immigrated to Berlin. And as is if all that wasn't enough, the food was absolutely phenomenal. We had doner; Syrian dips; Vietnamese tacos; currywust; schnitzel; and some delicious beers and other drinks. We'd highly recommend this tour!

Everything was in context and not just "this is what they eat" kind of thing. We felt like we got the full story behind everything. Some of the stops were expected tastes of Berlin and some were cuisines we didn't know were now part of the Berlin culture. Everything was delicious! We never felt rushed and it truly just felt like we were taken around my a local friend. Some of the others on the tours were super friendly as well and we came away with new contacts around the world! The laid-back nature was very much appreciated and we'd highly recommend this tour to others!

She was thorough in explaining the significance of Berlin's history and I thought it was an amazing 2 hours spent.

It's worth every euro !

**STREET ART WORKSHOP & TOUR**…read more WHERE: Met at noon (plenty of time to grab breakfast beforehand) at Alexanderplatz TV TOWER next to entrance of Starbucks. However, the tour ends at the workshop in Lictenberg. DURATION: 3.5-4 hour tour and workshop. COST: 18 euros per person and can book online. PART 1 ======= Took the back streets and discovered some of the latest, greatest, and oldest examples of street art, graffiti and mural art. Our guide, a street artist/expert on the scene, showed us some of the best: - stencil art - throw ups - mural art - tagging - ad busting - heaven spots - burners; and - installations while teaching us who was who and their motivations behind their artwork. PART 2 ======= We then visited their workshop in a former abandoned margarine factory in Lictenberg we were instructed how to stencil and spray paint. Yes, we took our piece home as well. So much fun. PRO TIPS: - Make sure to tip your guide. - Purchase an AB transport ticket for this tour. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those who like street art, graffiti, and history of Berlin.

My friend Jennifer recommended Alternative Berlin as a great way to see some of the counter cultural sites in Berlin, places that would take weeks or months of living in Berlin to find on your own. I decided to suck it up and go along since I was only going to be in town for 3.5 days. Alternative Berlin has several tour options. I did the Real Berlin tour, which is an extended version of their free walking tour. They also have a street art workshop (combined tour and DIY tutorial), a twilight tour and an alternative pub crawl. Our guide Dora spoke Italian, German and English, but conducted the tour in English. Dora was fluent on the historical and cultural aspects of the city. We visited several squats and art complexes, learning about the transformation of the structures over the years. Dora also pointed out some of the more colorful bars in the area and took us to the Turkish neighborhood of Kreuzberg. All in all, it was a great intro to Berlin. HELPFUL HINT - Pick up a day public transit pass ticket in advance as you'll be riding the trains between sites. - Bring money for lunch/snacks. - The meeting spot, the Starbucks, is somewhat obscured from view until you are close. It's in the small complex of businesses directly at the base of the Alexanderplatz TV Tower.

Make sure before you go on your tour, you have a valid train ticket since you will be taking public transportation. Also if you go on the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Tour, bring food with you since there will be no break for lunch. Also LAYER UP! Since the majority of the tours are outdoors. Jules and Duarte were both wonderful tour guides whom had endless upon endless information and made the tours exciting and informational. Jules really gave you an insight to what Nazi Germany was like on the Sachsenhausen Tour, and Duarte really broke down the separation of East and West Berlin on the Berlin Wall Tour. The next time I come back to Europe, I plan on seeing if the next city I visit has Sandeman's tours.

Martina was our tour guide for Tour M and she was engaging, knowledgeable, friendly and fun! She made the tour interesting and was happy to answer any and all questions. They offer a bunch of different tours which cover different topics/aspects "Underground Berlin". We chose Tour M because it focused on the history of the Berlin Wall which we were interested in knowing more about, but there are other tours available that focus on other aspects, such as bunkers, WWII, etc. Be sure to read through what's available before you schedule your tour to ensure that you're signed up for the topic that interests you most. My husband and I had very little knowledge of the Berlin Wall and the history behind it prior to this tour. We left feeling incredibly informed yet hunger for more knowledge! Martina recommended a few movies and documentaries to watch for more information about the wall and we fully intend to watch them when we get back home. Thanks for an interesting and enjoyable experience! Next time we're in Berlin, we'll come back to experience a different tour with you.

I was wearing shorts and a small long sleeve which really didn't make me feel comfortable because this place is seriously seriously cold. I asked the guide if it gets any hotter in the summer time and he says it stays this cool. So be warned bring a jacket when you come here because the whole tour is literally under the streets of Berlin! The guide we got was not from Germany but from another country and spoke English quite well. The place is filled with many cool things to see and also the glow in the dark room is pretty awesome. I didn't even know they invented that kind of thng so long ago! Very factual tour and with many photos and items that are from that time period. Yes we aren't allowed to take pictures soo they can keep all these items for the next generation! I'm glad I actually went to this place and got to listen to this tour. It is a little bit long but if you have time check this place out, I really loved it and you probably will if you want to see what would happen if the bunkers.

I did the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial with Chris (the Canadian Chris)…read more Chris was amazing! Very passionate about the tour and very informative. I would've booked all of my tours with him, if possible. The tour is very heavy. A lot to take in. I felt like throwing up as soon as we set foot on the property. I would do the tour on your last day in Berlin - not a good way to begin your trip. It's a long tour so they ask you to bring snacks and drinks. I bought some snacks last minute, but didn't even eat them as I would've probably thrown up immediately thereafter. Make sure to buy your metro ticket with the C connection. It was good to experience the tour, but definitely a heavy tour.
