Sightseeing with a new twist!

The possibilities for exploring the city are as diverse as Berlin itself. Whether you want to find your way around the city while playing a game or are looking for a major dose of humour, we’ll let you in on the secrets of how you can explore our amazing capital and have a huge amount of fun while you’re at it!

The so-called “City Rallyes” offer a perfect combination of active sight-seeing with a fun factor. Get to know the many facets of Berlin on a range of varied routes with a modern scavenger hunt. You’ll make your way around on foot or by bicycle – how else will you find the answers to the tricky questions about the sights or historic events in the city! You have to solve the first challenge at the starting point of your tour and then you’ll discover the next destination on your sight-seeing tour. And so the game continues – full of excitement and with not a boring moment – until you finally reach the finish with an award ceremony for the winners!
 

Of course that’s not all, because as well as the classic tour, the company “Berlin Rallye” has a number of special tours that are in a class of their own! Fall under the spell of the twenties as you get to know the entertainment capital on the “Marlene Dietrich & the Golden Twenties” tour. Equipped with a tour book full of questions and challenges, you and your team can follow in the footsteps of that unique diva Marlene Dietrich. Or delve into the city’s history and look for traces of the Berlin Wall! On the “Berlin Wall Rallye” for example, you’ll find the answers to the following questions: “Where exactly did the wall run? Are there any remains of the wall in the city? And how did life change with the fall of the wall?”

Duration:      three to five hours
Price:           from EUR 20.00

Fans of German comedy on the other hand
should definitely take a ride on the ComedyBus while they are in Berlin. Enjoy a light-hearted drive past the most beautiful but also most terrifying attractions in the city, in the company of some rather “different tour guides”. In fact, you’ll be sharing the bus with some of the city’s best-known top comedians who will be slipping into the role of a city guide for a change. There are plenty of
laughs for example on a sightseeing tour
with Ades Zabel: as Berlin’s most prominent
welfare recipient and V.I.P. housewife Edith Schröder she will take you on an amusing ride through Berlin on a comfortable coach. From Moabit and Neukölln to Wedding – you’ll get to know all sorts of interesting corners off the beaten tourist track and give your laughing muscles a great workout at the same time.

Duration:      depending on traffic, approx. 105 minutes
Price:           from EUR 25.00
