Hola, soy Mary y espero que puedas pasar un tiempo fantástico en uno de mis tours. Crecí en Varsovia, donde mis raíces judías/polacas y la experiencia de mi familia me indicaron un gran interés por la historia europea. En mi trabajo combino mi interés por las ciencias sociales con mi experiencia como periodista reparador y organizador de base para ofrecer explicaciones comprensibles incluso de los procesos y fenómenos más complejos que dieron forma a Alemania y Europa tal como son hoy. He vivido en Berlín durante 3 años, los cuales han sido intensos y extremadamente educativos. Adquirí experiencia como guía turístico trabajando para el líder del mercado comercial. Ahora ofrezco mis propios tours independientes; aprecio especialmente a aquellos visitantes que quieren reflexionar un minuto más e ir más allá de las típicas miradas turísticas. Desafía tu pensamiento, profundiza tu conocimiento histórico, siente las grandes vibraciones del corazón de Europa: ¡simplemente ven!
It was a lovely tour with a small group (less than 10 people), which made it feel very personal and informal. We received great recommendations and enjoyed interesting snippets of history that were informative without being overwhelming. It really felt more like hanging out with a local friend than being on a typical tour. Mary was super prepared, bringing paper cups so we could carry drinks along the way, and showing us some fascinating pictures. Despite the awful weather, the shared stories and the fun time spent at the market made it all worth it. It was a great way to get the most out of a walking tour, even during what’s probably the toughest time of the year for it.
This is the best walking tour I have been on! The wealth of knowledge, the combination of entertainment and serious history, as well as the depth of our guide Mary’s thinking is crazy impressive. I not only learned about the town of Berlin, but also Germany/WW1&2/Jewish experience in Germany, Poland and beyond/inspirational and hopeful thoughts about humanity’s future. Mary is patient, knowledgeable, and passionate about what she is doing. This is a must do for visitors and even locals of Berlin.
Mary’s way of introducing the Historical stories of the city is very interesting. She brings her ideology to the stories which adds a perspective that for me was not familiar at all. It helped me think of the history from a different way and for that I’m grateful.
