Itinerary
Meet your guide in front of Starbucks
Our journey begins at the striking Humboldt Forum, housed in the beautifully restored Berlin City Palace. Here, you’ll stumble upon a quaint secret — a secluded winter market surrounded by a dreamy display of sparkling lights, making it an ideal place to snap your first holiday photo!
See the TV Tower, Alexanderplatz, Neptunbrunnen, and the Rotes Rathaus (Red Town Hall) and pass by one of Berlin’s liveliest Christmas markets, complete with a towering Ferris wheel, an ice-skating rink, and a festive spirit set against the backdrop of the city’s historic skyline.
Stroll through Berlin's oldest quarter. With its medieval architecture, narrow stone-paved alleys, and charming Christmas market, this spot feels like it’s straight out of a winter fairytale. Your guide will share engaging stories about Berlin’s beginnings, unique German Christmas traditions, and a few fun seasonal tidbits. To help you stay cozy, you’ll also enjoy a complimentary warm cup of spiced mulled wine — or a non-alcoholic version, if you like — while taking in the festive surroundings.
Surrounded by elegant white pavilions, twinkling lights, and stunning historic architecture, this market is a true holiday centerpiece. After your guide’s introduction, you’re free to wander at your leisure — whether that means shopping for artisanal treasures, indulging in festive treats, or enjoying another warm cup of Glühwein. Please note: Entry to the market is optional and costs just €2, should you wish to stay and explore further after the tour.

About Berlin
Berlin is Germany's creative, open-minded capital, where landmarks of a turbulent history stand among art, green parks and legendary nightlife.
The Brandenburg Gate is the city's symbol, close to the glass-domed Reichstag and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Fragments of the Berlin Wall survive, most strikingly at the East Side Gallery, a long stretch covered in murals, and at the Bernauer Strasse memorial, while Checkpoint Charlie marks the most famous former crossing point.
Top-ranked sights in Berlin: Brandenburg Gate (Brandenburger Tor), Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Holocaust Memorial), Checkpoint Charlie.
