About this activity

Explore Berlin's pivotal but sobering World War II history on a 3-hour private walking tour that traces Nazi governance, the war's impact on the city, and Soviet liberation. Visit authentic sites including Hitler's bunker, the Reichstag, government ministries, and a preserved air-raid bunker to understand how the war shaped modern Berlin.

Join us on a Berlin World War Tour like no other. When you consider the turbulent history of Berlin, considering its relatively young age, none of the chapters of its story are darker than that of the Nazi Period. And on this Unique tour, we will cover it all, pre-war Nazi Berlin and the events in Berlin coinciding with the ebbs and flows of the Second World War, Hitler’s dream for Berlin, the Germania Project and the shattered reality of the city post-war.

Visiting one of the still extant Hoch Bunkers we will learn about the Heavy Bomber air-raids raids on Berlin and how the nazi authorities and military countered it. And we will retrace the footsteps of the Soviet Soldiers as they raced to raise the Soviet Flag above the Reichstag under a hail of fire.

The World War Berlin Tour includes a stroll down Wilhelmstrasse which was the government district, visiting the site of the Hitlers Bunker, The New Reich Chancellery Building, Joseph Goebbal’s Propaganda Ministry. Essentially the nerve center of the Third Reich and occupied Europe
