Your Itinerary
A curated journey through the experience
Mecklenburg-West Pomerania
On your transfer from Rostock to Berlin you will pass through the land of 1000 lakes, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. You will see many of these lakes from the road, as well as bright yellow fields of rape (in May and June). Transfer is about 2 hours.
Charlottenburg Palace
As you enter Berlin the first stop will be Charlottenburg Palace. Your guide will join you here. Charlottenburg Palace is the most beautiful palace built by the Hohenzollern, it's named for Sophie Charlotte, wife of Frederic I who was crowned king in Prussia in 1800.
10 minutesKurfurstendamm
Kurfürstendamm is the world's largest boulevard. It used to be the center of Berlin night-life in the roaring 1920s, and was also the main shopping street in West-Berlin. Today it is once again a place where tourists and Berliners alike like to come to dine, have coffee, shop, see a play, or just stroll.
Kaufhaus des Westens (KaDeWe)
The KaDeWe ist the largest department store in continental Europe, and probably the most exquisite also. On your tour of Berlin you can chose a couple of longer stops: this could be one of them.
30 minutesTopography of Terror
There are several things to see here: the former SS and Gestapo-headquarters are now a memorial and documentation center. At the same time you can see an original stretch of the Berlin Wall.
20 minutesCheckpoint Charlie
Who hasn't heard of Checkpoint Charlie, the border point where Allied Soldiers were able to move from West to East Berlin, and back. Once US and Sovjet tanks faced each other, today you can see a replica of the guard house and the sign "You are now leaving the American Sector."
10 minutesThe Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe
This haunting memorial by Peter Eisenmann is one of the highlights of Berlin, right next to the Brandenburg Gate and the US Embassy.
10 minutesPotsdamer Platz Tiegarten
The Berlin used to divide East and West right here. At the time the once lively square was a waste land. Today it is once again the center of Berlin, with lots of highrises hotels, movie theaters and shops.
10 minutesGendarmenmarkt
A beautiful square with the French and German domes at either side, and the 19th century theater building by Schinkel in the center.
5 minutesReichstag Building
The Reichstag was where Hitler rose to power, but after only a couple of weeks, a fire destryed much of the building, and so the building was not used during the Third Reich at all. It was thus an easy choice to make this poignant building the seat of the German parliament after 1990. If you want to go up to the roof, please let us know in advance so we can reserve a time slot (you will have to give us your full name and date of birth, and bring ID).
30 minutesBrandenburg Gate
Germany's most famous landmark, site of Hitler's march of torches, of the death strip between the Berlin Wall, and of Reagan's famous "Tear down this Wall" speech.
10 minutesAlexanderplatz
Drive on Unter den Linden, past the Opera, the New Guard House and the New Humboldt Forum (Hohenzollern Palace rebuilt) to come to Alexanderplatz, the large square with Germany's tallest building: the TV tower.
