The rich history of the city of Berlin has resulted in plenty of sights to see. A little over 100 years ago Berlin was the capital of the German Empire and just 35 years ago the city was split in half until the fall of the Berlin Wall. Today the city celebrates freedom and diversity without forgetting its past.
There is so much to see and do in Berlin, many things are related to the city and the country's past. For example, you can visit the DDR Museum on the northern banks of the Spree river to learn more about the city's recent history. Or take a further step back in time at Checkpoint Charlie. Little BIG City Berlin lets you interact with some of the most notable parts of Berlin's history.
Not all sights in the Berlin are marked by the city's history though. You can climb to the top of the TV-Tower on Alexanderplatz for an amazing view or enjoy the greenery of Tiergarten. Go shopping on Ku'damm or explore the Art Nouveau courtyards of Hackesche Höfe. With this Hop-on Hop-off bus you can discover the German capital at your own pace.

A great way to see all the sights of Berlin, the tour is nearly 3 hours long in one lap. There is an audio guide in several languages. You do get really close to all of the attractions. The bus driver was friendly and welcoming.
Great service, friendly staff and great views! Would recommend the Hop on Hop off bus as a great way to see Berlin. Be prepared though, the entire route is @2.5 hours long!
Okay … I have just read the recent reviews and it would seem some individual(s) rated the Sight Seeing of Berlin (Hop On, Hop Off) as not particularly great. However, I have found my tour brilliant. Whilst the tour bus, was not particularly crowded. Claudes, the bus/tour guide, was exceptionally brilliant, so knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour. Appreciated his storytelling of why the Berlin Wall was built,; explained the Berlin Wall Museum and the drawings etc … we stopped twice for a 15 minute break. Claudes, spoke about the history of Berlin and it’s check points. It’s a shame, you can’t ask for Claudes, for your tour guide … he was & is brilliant 😊
We purchased a ticket that gave us a 48 hour pass with guided walking tour and free curry wurst. The directions to activate your ticket were not great, nor was information on redeeming your curry wurst. However the actual tour bus was great. The first driver we had was entirely unhelpful but the other ones were excellent. Also the sellers and agents around the mail stops were super helpful. The English guy we had for the walking tour was hilarious and very knowledgeable. He really did an excellent job.
I would have been unable to experience visiting all of these sights without using this bus service......and just like in London, another bus will soon arrive, after you visit a given stop.
The bus ride was a great way to see the city and listen to someone tell us about all the highlights of what we were seeing. Super easy to hop on and off. The boat tour was nice but we didn’t understand anything said since it wasn’t in English…but it was still a nice ride.
Read a few poor reviews but have to say ours was a good experience. Talked to a few of the ticket sellers as they lower their prices as you move around. We were happy with the price we paid. We enjoyed the banter on the commentary and have little to complain about. This company pairs up with another so there's more choice of buses at each stop. There is a negative in that there are no *bus stops* so you have to remember where you got off. We bought tickets and boarded where there were ticket sellers. That helped, but they're not at every stop. One other gripe was other tourists chatting loudly so we couldn't hear the commentary. Overall, a great way to see the highlights of Berlin.
Tour bus handy - right outside our hotel at East Side Gallery stop! Bought 2 day ticket for extra 4 euros which was worth it. They let you use red hop on and hop off bus as well as the red city sightseeing bus so both were quite frequent. Did full tour took 2 hours but bus does stop as major sights for 15 mins during that time ie Brandenburg gate and also at stop 1. Detailed recorded tour although sometimes it continues even when you are at red lights so unsure what its referring too but still informative. There was a boat ride but we couldnt find where to pick this up from so ended up doing a separate boat tour on Reederei Hadynski which was very good. Bus was clean and soft drinks available but you need cash as card machine didnt work.
I traveled to Berlin for a day trip with my son and therefore needed the ability to see as many of the sights in a short space of time and this tour ticked the box. We booked the combined tour and one hour river trip in advance and when we got to the central station it was really easy to find the bus stop, number 19 on the list. As one can imagine the bus was quite full but we managed to get upstairs seats and had great 360 views. A downside, not worth marking down was that the initial Jack for the headphones was as faulty but the next one did. The circular tour takes 2.5 hours if one stays on but the clue is in the name so we hopped off for the river cruise before getting back on at a different stop to get back to the station. The guided information adds humour to interesting facts. Well worth using to understand Berlin
A great way to see the sights over two days - the 2 day ticket is good value. One downside - the really cheesy audio track. Very informative, though.
Der Busfahrer Jörg, ist eine richtig coole Socke und geht auf seine Gäste ein, zehn von zehn Punkten!😊
Ich selbst habe einige Jahre in Berlin gewohnt und habe noch Verwandtschaft dort. Wenn ich nun zu Besuch in Berlin bin und Rundfahrten buche, wähle ich City Sightseeing Berlin quasi aus Gewohnheit. Dieses Mal jedoch bin ich so dermaßen überzeugt, dass ich sogar eine Bewertung schreibe. Das liegt an Klaus. Klaus ist der Busfahrer, der uns an unserem zweiten Tag durch Berlin begleitete. Wir hatten das 48-Stunden Ticket gebucht, da wir damit rechneten, dass am 03.10. bestimmt einige Demos und Kundgebungen unsere Rundfahrt "stören" würden (was dann ja auch so war). Wir stiegen zu Klaus in den Bus und bekamen eine very special Rundfahrt. Das Wetter war kühl und windig, so dass das Dach eh geschlossen war. Also blieben wir im unteren Bereich. Klaus ist das komplette Gegenteil vom kaltschnäuzigen Berliner. Er begrüßte jeden neuen Fahrgast sehr persönlich (obwohl er die Menschen ja noch gar nicht kannte!) und souverän in diversen Sprachen. Jeder fühlte sich willkommen. Falls jemand filmbegeistert ist: wartet auf Klaus. Er weiß genau, welche Filme wo in Berlin gedreht wurden (aktuell: Tribute von Panem). Wir haben auf dieser Tour so viel mitbekommen, was nicht in den Kopfhörer-Ansagen erwähnt wurde! Meine (19jährige) Tochter hat angekündigt, dass sie auf ihrer nächsten Berlin-Reise nur noch mit Klaus fahren möchte. Wir haben tatsächlich einige Stopps, an denen wir eigentlich aussteigen wollten, ausgelassen, um weiter mit Klaus zu fahren (und haben sie dann später erlaufen). Achtet darauf, in welchen Bus Ihr einsteigt: die Hör-Texte des Kooperationspartners sind zwar natürlich ebenfalls informativ, aber sehr nüchtern und unpersönlich. Vielleicht kann man das mal anpassen? Wir stiegen um 17h in einen Bus am KaDeWe ein, dessen Fahrer uns dann mitteilte, dass er nur noch bis zum Potsdamer Platz führe (zwei Stationen). Bisschen irreführend, wenn es heißt, dass der nächste Bus um 17h kommt - wir waren davon ausgegangen, dass der Bus dann dann noch einmal die komplette Runde fahren würde. Zumal andere Unternehmer offenbar länger unterwegs waren (wir haben die Busse der Konkurrenz deutlich später noch gesehen). Trotzdem und ganz deutlich: absolute Empfehlung für die Tour mit Klaus. Für den Kooperationspartner spreche ich ganz deutlich keine Empfehlung aus. Es kam kein Hinweis, dass die gebuchte Strecke gesperrt war und ein Hinweis auf möglicherweise auf möglicherwiese veränderte Routen fehlte ebenfalls. Auf einem Teilstück waren auch die Kopfhörerbuchsen offenbar kaputt. Auf unseren Hinweis erhielten wir vom Fahrer (nicht Klaus!) ein eher unfreundliches: "Det passiert". Klaus ist für uns ein absolutes Argument für diese Tour mit diesem Unternehmen. Ich weiß jetzt, warum es in Berlin überall diese überirdischen Rohre gibt (die ich bisher für misslungene Kunstinstallationen gehalten habe) und ich weiß, wo es den Schacht gibt, der der Stasi damals die Spionage des Alex ermöglichte. Und: Klaus, falls du das liest: natürlich waren wir noch in den Hackeschen Höfen! Liebe Grüße von Natalie (die mit dem interessanten Pulli) und der Mutter!
Von Herzen ein grosses Dankeschön für diese Möglichkeit. Meine Schwiegermutter (85) war fasziniert von der Stadt und kaum aus dem Staunen nicht mehr heraus, wie gross Berlin doch ist. Für eine 85jährige ein absolutes Highlight, da sie nichts erlaufen musste und die Stadt sitzend geniessen konnte. Die Streckenführung war super. Die Stopps in der Stadt gut gewählöt und zentral. Die Häufigkeit der Busfrequenz war sehr praktisch und mit max 20min hat man stets Zeit, sich kurz die Beine zu vertreten und/oder ein Getränk zu kaufen. Der Bus war super sauber, das Personal professionell und super freundlich. Der Service während der Fahrt informativ und excellent. Unser Platz oben und in der Sonne war perfekt. Eine absolute Empfehlung!
Wir haben die negativen Bewertungen gelesen und können sie in keinster Weise nachvollziehen. Der Fahrer war nett und freundlich, konnte auch Fragen beantworten. Für die mangelnden Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kiel kann der Fahrer sicht nichts, im Gegenteil. Er hat versucht alles positiv zu erzählen.
Fun. Interesting. We visited at Christmas time and it was apparent that they had made the scenery look like winter with snow, santas and Christmas-based facts. Informative and somewhat interactive. Enjoyed our visit but would say that it's probably more suited to children (if you're in Berlin with kids I'd definitely recommend).
Tolle Ausstellung für gross und klein. Man lernt viel über die Geschichte Berlins. Die Darstellung ist toll gestaltet mit viel Leibe zum Detail. Gab vieles zu entdecken. Sehr interaktiv für Erwachsene und auch für Kinder.
L’ho trovato bellissimo ed entusiasmo vedere la ricostruzione di berlino dal medioevo e cultura tedesca al periodo moderno. Ci sono dei modellini animati e piccoli riassunti della storia lungo il percorso. Mi è piaciuto un sacco. Plastici e modellini è il mio forte.
Jag kan verkligen rekommendera vuxna och barn att besöka Little Big City Berlin. Lärorikt och intressant. Många kluriga detaljer gör det till en underhållande upplevelse för hela familjen.
Un piccolo mondo,con tutte le miniature dei principali siti d'interesse a Berlino.Essendo un'amante delle miniature,non potevo non visitarlo e averlo fatto sotto le feste ha senza dubbio aggiunto un tocco di magia a questa visita. Tutte le miniature erano infatti illuminate a festa e prima di accedere al grande salone che le ospita,si assiste a un divertente spettacolo di marionette che fa da anticamera alla visita.Si apre quindi una porta che vi catapulterà nella Little Big Berlin,tutta illuminata e luccicante. Un particolare che ha colpito sia me che altri visitatori é che la miniatura della Porta di Bradenburgo era presentata al tempo del Nazismo,con tanto di parata militare e bandierine con relativa svastica(allego foto). Alla fine della visita,varcato il portone,vi attenderà un'altra miniatura della Porta di Bradenburgo,che per il periodo delle feste proponeva luci e suoni del famoso Capodanno Berlinese. Il museo si trova alle spalle della Torre della Televisione e affaccia su una bellissima piazza,che nel periodo Natalizio é occupata dalle casette tipiche dei mercatini di Natale e di fronte alla ruota panoramica. Consiglio la visita a grandi e piccini,porta via poco tempo e vi regala un po' di stupore.
Entrées obtenues grâce à la visite de l’aquarium car rénovations. Musée très interactif avec de magnifiques reproductions miniatures de la ville de Berlin. C’est le meilleur moyen pour les enfants de découvrir l’histoire tout en s’amusant ! Le seul inconvénient c’est qu’encore une fois rien n’est traduit sauf en anglais !
Nous avons eu l'entrée car l'aquarium de Berlin est en rénovations, enfin le cylindre donc ce n'étais pas prévu d'aller la bas. Nous avons apprécié la visité et nous conseillerons d'aller sans problème. C'est très impressionnant tout ce qu'ils ont fait en miniature. D'ailleurs cela retracasse bien l'histoire du pays. Par contre allez avec des enfants en âge de comprendre de ne pas toucher les figures car c'est très tentant. Endroit très sympa et à refaire en tout cas. Nous avons pris énormément de plaisir à le faire.
Impresionante la visita al lugar y la historia más allá de las típicas películas de Hollywood. 100% recomendable la visita, pero sobre todo la guía: Montiel (Monti).
Quelle bonne idée que de se tourner vers cette visite par un temps pluvieux. Comprenant l’anglais, la visite n’à pas posé souci. Les décors sont superbes, le souci du détail est très poussé et l’interactivité pousse à la curiosité ! Bravo !
La struttura è carina e molto ben realizzata, bella la parte relativa alla seconda guerra mondiale con le animazioni. È un po’ confusionaria e non si capisce bene che ordine seguire ma tutto sommato è stata un’esperienza positiva. Il prezzo è un po’ alto, consiglio l’acquisto combinato con le altre attrazioni dei pacchetti offerti (madame Tussaud’s, Aqua Dom, Berlin Dungeon)
Davvero curato nei minimi dettagli, spiega molto bene la storia della città, nonché la riproduce con le sue miniature. Soprattutto la parte legata al pre e dopo nazismo fa venire la pelle d’oca, in particolare i dettagli della marcia nazista attraverso la Porta di Brandeburgo e la città distrutta dopo i bombardamenti. Lo shop permette degli ottimi acquisti a prezzi convenientissimi.
Stedet er hyggeligt, og ligger ved foden af tv-tårnet. Vi var der med vores 3 børn. Stedet er ikke stort, men fantastisk flot lavet. Stedet lover som de beskriver det, et indblik i Berlins historie. Brug tiden, og kig på detaljerne, det er fantastisk lavet. Kunne have været fedt, hvis de solgte modeller eller dioramaer, af Berlin
Fantastisk utställning om Berlins historia. Vi besökte muséet med barn i åldrarna 7, 9 och 11 år och alla uppskattade det mycket (även vi vuxna). Utställningen ger, på ett pedagogiskt och underhållande sätt, en förståelse för Berlin historia. Genom miniatyrmodeller av människor och byggnader går man en tidslinje som tar en från 1200-talet fram till modern tid. Det är perfekt att börja Berlinbesöket med Little Big City, för att sedan gå ut och se monument och platser i verklighet. Rekommenderas!
