Scott is from my home state, Michigan, and was an excellent guide who knows the history of Berlin. I have been a student of history all of my life with a special interest in the Cold War and WWII and Scott was a fine touch to my interests. Thanks again...
This tour is an absolute must if you're in Berlin for at least a day. A walking history lesson. Scott was a brilliant tour guide who led a large group effortlessly. Full of intersting facts, told enthusiastically. Thank you Scott for helping make our trip to Berlin so memorable!
Had such a wonderful day. Chris was an inspirational tour guide, full of interesting insights to Berlin, being a true Berliner himself. Well organised and so much fun! A must if you're staying in Berlin for any more than 3 days. Thanks Chris!
Heiko, I really enjoyed the tour, as I felt that your perspective and knowledge put all the sights into a context for me that I have never seen before. As an American student growing up in the two decades just before and immediately following the fall of the Wall, I feel I was slightly short-changed in my education and understanding of 20th century world history. Perhaps this is because of the remnants of the "Iron Curtain," and perhaps it is because I was intellectually and emotionally unable to process the facts and put them into context. At any rate, you have helped me to become intrigued and interested in reading more about the sequence of events that centered in Europe during the 20th century and progressed from the start of WWI to the fall of the Wall. Thanks so much for the tour!
Dear Francis and Mike,
Wow, what a great time we had! The Insider tour was absolutely a top moment of the whole weekend, thanx to Mike's enthusiasm, knowledge and eagerness to share Berlin experience! We really had great times, it has been an excellent tour, informative and entertaining at the same time. Mike, thank you very much for making us think and for making us laugh. We all were very much impressed by your knowledge and your great way of presenting it to us. We shall spread the word about Insiders here in the Netherlands, and be sure we shall come back for more Berlin experience!
Best regards,

Our tour guide was Helen her name doesn't appear in your list of guides. We did the tour with her today and even when the trains were not running properly she still made sure we did the full tour and that everyone enjoyed themselves. She was a wealth of information and we thought she was an excellent guide. So well done Helen keep up the good work.

Hey Mike,
Just wanted to say thanks so much for an amazing bike tour! I can vouch for everyone in saying that your energy was infectious and kept the whole tour group wanting more. We all agree that you gave the best tour any of us have experienced.
Other than that, it was great to meet you and we'll definitely get in touch when we return to Berlin.
We had a great time with Kurt on the 3rd Reich tour too - and ended up immersed in film conversation. Let him know we said hi, and he is welcome to contact us any time (didn't get his email) and we'll have that dinner when we return...
Alright, good luck with your thesis, and we hope to see you soon,
Fraser & Kate.
ps. the weather in Prague is amazing, but the tours... well...

Nigel was extremely successful in bringing reality to those horrendous events that occured at Sachsenhausen. We will never forget that tour. It has made a tremendous impact in our lives and also made our trip to Berlin the most memorable of trips in our lifetime. We can't wait to come back and take more tours. Thanks Nigel and Insider Tours!!!
Wow! I just woke up after a brilliant Pub Crawl last night. Excellent bars and nightlife. I love this city! Simone and Yanis were our guides. They were really cool and giving out jagermister shots and all kinds of crazy stuff. My head hurts! Yanis, your a legend man! Best guide ever! I loved the arts house and all. Next time in Berlin I'll definately come back on your tour. Thanks for an awesome tour. Chris.
