Berlin Wall Bike Tour

Overview

Beginning with the ideological differences between East and West, we will take you through the origins of the Cold War, the Berlin Airlift, the division of Germany, and the construction of the Berlin Wall. We will visit the East Side Gallery, the longest remaining stretch of the Wall, and stop by one of the only remaining East German Guard Towers. The tour will then head to the iconic Soviet War Memorial at Treptower Park, before biking to Tempelhof Airport – site of the Berlin Airlift. Along the way, we will talk about ghost stations, espionage, and escape attempts before stopping at one of our favorite beer gardens (cost not included).

Throughout the tour, you’ll have plenty of time to get to know your guide and ask questions. There are amazing photo opportunities all day, and we will make sure that you get a chance to stop at each of them. At the end of this full-day tour, our friendly guides would love to help you plan the rest of your time in Berlin by suggesting their favorite places for a currywurst, the best museums to check out, the perfect dance club to stay out all night, or quite simply, a great spot for a traditional German beer. As with all of our other tours, our Berlin Wall Bike Tour maintains a leisurely pace. We use comfortable city-cruiser style bicycles that are easy for everyone. This tour will leave you with a much better understanding of the Cold War and a deeper appreciation for Berlin.
