In addition, you have the opportunity to see the whole of City East here, and not just a very small section of it, as is the case on tours. Berlin is very spread out, has many other centers in addition to these two, and depending on interest we can take a short walk at the Brandenburg Gate or at Checkpoint Charlie.
