Join us on this fascinating tour of Potsdam! No visit to Berlin is complete without it.
Already been to Versaille or Neuschwanstein? Potsdam is Berlin’s version of paradise! Get out of the city center and have a New Berlin day in the country.
For centuries Potsdam served as the location of the royal residence of Germany’s royal family, and later the garrison of the fearsome Prussian army. Stuck behind the Iron Curtain on the Communist side of Berlin and Germany, this palace city has only become easily reachable in the last 19 years!
On the Potsdam Tour we cover all the main sites and the stories of four generations of exceptional rulers that created a town that made the state of Prussia, the Prussia that made Germany, a new country that after two world wars created the world in which we live today.
While your guide explains the amazing stories of Potsdam, marvel at the stunning palaces of Frederick the Great, the gardens and amazing lake landscape that took the Prussian kings and German emperors 400 years to create.
Our guides, graduates of some of the world’s leading universities, have settled in Berlin because they love the city and its remarkable history. Join us! We want everybody to experience Berlin and Potsdam.
