Berlin city guide

Brandenburg Gate: Take a free walking tour – New Europe runs a long and informative walking tour that begins at the Brandenburg Gate and lasts 3.5 hours. It takes you through the center of the city, shows you all the highlights, gives you some history, and will help you orientate yourself.

Eating at Mustafas. They’re known for the best kebabs in Berlin. The exaggerations are true—the lemon, the mint, the fresh vegetables. Mouth watering.
East Side Gallery
Treptower Park




Located in the eastern part of Berlin, this park is near an old abandoned amusement park (which you can also visit). This park is a popular place to bike around, and there are a number of beer gardens and a small island nearby where they have a weekend flea market. Moreover, you can rent boats and canoes and cruise the adjoining river.

German History Museum

Berlin’s central park: is an excellent place to relax, walk, bike, and hang out. It’s one of the most beautiful city parks in all of Europe, in my opinion. There’s a war memorial for Russian soldiers, and you can also see the nearby Reichstag (German parliament) and famous Brandenburg Gate.


Checkpoint Charlie
Take a boat tour
The Spree river flows through Berlin, and there are lots of canals and waterways on which you can take a boat tour. It’s quite relaxing on a warm day.
