3 hours 35 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

A dynamic and immersive experience that blends Berlin’s war-torn history with its rich beer tradition. Walk through iconic WWII sites, then relax with German beer tastings at Berlin pubs in locations tied to the city’s past.
Walk the streets where World War Two unfolded, wars were fought, and walls came down—then toast it all with Berlin’s finest brews. This is no dry lecture. It’s Berlin’s history, the way it was lived: intense, emotional, and always better with a drink.

From Nazi resistance to WWII battles, we’ll trace the city’s darkest chapter—then raise a glass at the same pubs located where Berliners once schemed, mourned, and rebelled. This is not your typical walking tour. It’s a raw, immersive, story-driven journey through the heart of 20th-century history, guided by Berlin’s most passionate historians.
Walk key WWII and Battle of Berlin locations with an expert storyteller and historic guide.

Taste 3–4 Berlin beers in great Berlin pubs.
