Do you wish you knew somebody in Berlin who could help you decide where to stay and what to see? Whether you travel alone, with family, or in a group, I will help you plan your trip and show you around once you get here: On foot, by car, or by bus. Get the support you would get from a friend or relative! I'll also suggest restaurants and help purchase concert tickets. If I am not available, one of my guides will be.
My name is Jo Eckardt.
I lived in New York for 19 years teaching German at NYU and working for the UN. In 2001 I returned to Berlin. Even though I still miss New York, I don't regret the move. Berlin is a great place and I'd love to show it to you!
What's new
More Languages: In addition to Spanish, French and Italian tours, we now also offer tours in Hebrew, Portuguese, Thai, Chinese, Russian, Greek, and Dutch!
Movies to watch: Before coming to Berlin, consider watching the following movies: Valkyrie, Life of others, The Downfall, The Good German, The Forgers. All these movies take place in and around Berlin and I could show you where they were shot.
Concerts: When in Berlin, check out the free Philharmonie lunch concerts every Tuesday!
Tipping: Here is an interesting article about tipping in restaurants: http://www.thelocal.de/society/20090527-19531.html
Special Exhibition The Pergamon is probably the most spectacular museum in Berlin. But it just got better. There is a special attraction that will run only for one year (until October 2012): it's a panorama of the ancient city of Pergamon in 3-D that is so lifelike, it's unbelieavable. I would be happy to purchase tickets for you. Ask me about it!
Boat tours through Berlin: You may not know this, but Berlin has more water ways, canals, rivers, and lakes, then almost any other city in the world. A tour in a small private motor boat will be the highlight of your stay!
