What you can expect

Glide through the bustling streets of the German capital on a guided city bike tour. Cover up to 15 kilometres as you tour the sites that shaped world history, from the remains of the Berlin Wall to Checkpoint Charlie.

Choose your bike from a wide selection and set out on your guided adventure in Berlin. Begin at the Kulturbrauerei, a remarkable 19-century brewery in the district of Prenzlauer Berg.

Then, ride along the former border that once separated East and West Berlin. View the remains of the Berlin Wall and former border crossings, such as Bornholmerstraße and the infamous Checkpoint Charlie.

Marvel at one of the last watch towers and hear stories about both successful and tragic escape attempts. Learn more about how the Berlin Wall came down overnight after almost 30 years and its lasting impact on Berliners.

Pedal from Mauerpark, through Bernauerstraße, all the way to the historic Brandenburg Gate. Admire this iconic symbol of the capital as your guide explains its 18th-century origins. Finally, return to the shop to drop off your bike.
