A very informative sightseeing tour with a guide and driver. Both were extremely helpful and informative and especially Stefan with a substantial knowledge of the City and a good sense of humor.

From start to finish this tour was perfect. We had corresponded in advance about the sights we wished to see and visit in conjunction with their normal itinerary. Our outstanding guide Stefan along with his driver of a very comfortable mini-van arrived promptly at our hotel to begin the tour. Stefan was very knowledgeable and personable. He was able to focus on his presentation while leaving all of the driving headaches to his colleague. The new church at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church was very peaceful and moving. We then visited the exterior of the Tempehof airport and looked through exhibits depicting the Berlin airlift. Throughout the tour Stefan would take us on short walks and point out the current city landscape in contrast to historical pictures of how the city was divided during the Cold War. The memorial to the Roma victims of the holocaust was very sobering. We had obtained special access tickets to visit the Reichstag glass dome in advance which was well worth the visit. The Egyptian exhibit including the Nefertiti bust at the Neuesmuseum was amazing. Stefan recommended a Bavarian restaurant for lunch that had delicious food. We highly recommend this tour as Stefan provided deep insights into the Berlin history and culture and having the driver/van allowed us to very efficiently get around the city.

Our tour was, at best, acceptable. Guide was knowledgeable but inexperienced in how to connect with people. On the plus side, we covered a lot of ground, saw Berlin in its entirety in six hours. Little regard given to our personal comfort. Driver and guide both very polite and pleasant but we had a tour, not an experience in Berlin. Have taken multiple tours through La Vacanza Travel and very much enjoyed them but this one was a disappointment especially for the price. Will not automatically go to La Vacanza Travel in future. Vehicle was not as nice as vehicles on other La Vacanza Travel tours. Dingy, ground in dirt on carpets. Minimally comfortable.
