Free walking tours in Cold War Berlin

Ismael was fascinating and I learned lots about the local art. Thank you for making it so enjoyable

Its slightly offbeat route with lot of inside stories about Graphittis and street art. Would recommend for Artists visiting the city

Ismael was very friendly and told us a lot of insider stories about artists and the background of the street art and graffiti we saw. Even though we initially missed half an hour due to a traffic jam, it was a very informative and fun tour—even as a Berliner (as I am). I'd definitely recommend it.

Well worth trying, exploring an area of Berlin that not everyone goes to!

This was one of the best things we have done in Berlin and was very interesting. We saw some great street art and graffiti and our guide Ismael was excellent in his knowledge. My only regret it I wish we had done this tour earlier in our visit, as we got some great recommendations of places to visit. Excellent tour for all ages. I would recommend for children and adults as there was so much to see and learn about.

We had a great time… learned a lot of new things.

We had a great tour with Ismael. Although we are 10+ years Berliners ourselves, we learnt a lot about our city and its unique culture. Ismael’s stories were interesting and entertaining! Thank you :)

Super alternative tour, I can only recommend!

The tour is really entertaining and interesting, he can combine fun with really quality and historical informations. The tour is complete and it last the perfect time.

Ismael was super nice and prepeared, he showed us Kreuzberg viertel and the east side galery and gave us lots of tip about things to do in the area. Really recommended!

Ismael shows strong interests in mural arts, sharing his good knowledge of the graffiti/ murals with us.

I had an excellent experience learning about street art, public art and graffiti from the tour guide Ismael. Despite the rain, he made an excellent job giving us the tour and explaining to us about the neighbourhood as well. This is an excellent alternative walking tour compared to other history tours that start at the Brandenburg gate. I highly recommend this tour!

Recommended tour!

Amazing route with a very knowledgable guide! Highly recommended.

Muy sorprendente

This was a great tour on the topic. I don't know much about street art or grafitti, so there was plenty of background and how it ties in with urban planning/mainteance/regulations and how the paintings are done and how the artists respond to the way their art is treated. It's a tour of different parts, it starts with explanations on techinques and artists and teaches you to look in all directions and what to look out for, and finishes walking a long section of Berlin Wall with graffiti on one side and commissioned street art on the other. There's a stop for bathroom access midway if you need it. As our guide points out, there are plenty of tours about Nazis and Cold War but this is the antidote if you need something else that's connected to Berlin (though obviously the Berlin Wall is a large part of it)

Ismail is passions himself about topics he is talking on. I find it really important when guide can share with audience. Not only fulfil the programme or talk about popular topics.

Tolle Tour! Ismael hat super interessante Fakten und tolles Zusatzmaterial!

Isma fue muy amable y didáctico. Claramente entiende del tema. Ver esas zonas de Berlín con alguien a quien le gusta su trabajo da gusto!

Excellent and knowledgeable guide!

Our first ever graffiti guide tour and it was very good and fun! Very thankful for all the tips 😁

The tour by Ismael was interesting, inspiring and never boring. Thank you Ismael!

This is one of the best tours that we have attended!! We were thrilled about both the information and the performance that the guru made for us. We 10/10 recommend!

Ismaels knowledge was outstanding. I learned a lot and found many unknown treasures from Berlins graffiti art styles.

Ismael is a knowledgeable and passionate guide. Would highly recommend this tour!
