La he sintetizado con la palabra " excelente". Luciano muy conocedor de la historia berlinesa, mantuvo al grupo atento. Observé como un adolescente y un niño de no más de 10 años, escuchaba, preguntaba. No siempre fácil de conseguir. Relato dinámico, expresado con entusiasmo, que nos mantuvo atentos al tomar conocimiento de hechos desconocidos para algunos de nosotros. Nunca decayó el tour. Parando y escuchando. De tal manera no resultó cansador.Acertada la pausa para tomar un café, etc. Translate this opinion into English.

I have summed it up with the word "excellent". Luciano, who is very knowledgeable about Berlin's history, kept the group attentive. I observed how a teenager and a child of no more than 10 years old listened and asked questions. Not always easy to achieve. A dynamic story, expressed with enthusiasm, which kept us attentive as we learned facts unknown to some of us. The tour never faltered. Stopping and listening. In this way it was not tiring. The break for coffee, etc. was appropriate. Opinion translated. Show original.

En general el tour no estuvo mal. Camino, la guía simpática y divertida. Perdimos algún tiempo de visita con una parada para hacer publicidad de otros tours. Podía haberlo hecho al final del mismo. También durante los trayectos gestionando tours con miembros del grupo. La parada en el bar de 20 minutos también sobra. Como mucho parar al aseo y comprar algo quien quiera almorzar algo durante el tour,b pero no tanto tiempo.

Overall the tour was not bad. The route was nice and the guide was fun. We lost some time with a stop to advertise other tours. I could have done it at the end of the tour. I also lost some time during the journeys to organise tours with members of the group. The 20-minute stop at the bar was also unnecessary. At most, if you want to stop for a restroom and buy something for lunch during the tour, but not that long.

Este tipo de tours ayudan no solo a visitar lo imprescindible de la ciudad si no a conocer parte de la historia de la ciudad y Francisco se encargó de hacerlo super ameno y didáctico.

Francisco was wonderful, so much so that we decided to take the Berlin Wall tour with him. These types of tours not only help you visit the essentials of the city but also learn about part of the city's history, and Francisco made it super fun and educational. Opinion translated. Show original.

Luís fue un guía excelente, nos lo explicó todo muy bien y además con buen humor. Muy amable, muy interesante todo lo que contó y nos lo hizo muy entretenido.

Realmente nos encantó, sobre todo por la guía, Micaela. Lo hizo genial, sus explicaciones fueron interesantes y precisas y su relación con el grupo fue altamente motivador, incentivándonos a participar con nuestras opiniones o interpretaciones (por ejemplo, en el Monumento en Memoria de los Judíos Asesinados de Europa). Fue nuestra primera toma de contacto con la ciudad, pero fue más que eso. De los tres tours que hicimos con Civitatis, este fue el mejor, gracias a Micaela. TOP 100% Translate this opinion into English.

We really loved it, especially because of the guide, Micaela. She did a great job, her explanations were interesting and precise and her relationship with the group was highly motivating, encouraging us to participate with our opinions or interpretations (for example, at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe). It was our first contact with the city, but it was more than that. Of the three tours we did with Civitatis, this was the best, thanks to Micaela. TOP 100% Opinion translated. Show original.

Realizamos la visita con Alberto y nos gusto tanto que repetimos con él la ruta de la cerveza el mismo día!!

Sin duda repetiríamos una visita con él :) Translate this opinion into English.

We visited with Alberto and we liked it so much that we repeated the beer tour with him the same day!! We really liked his casual way and his passion for telling us every detail of the story.

El mejor tour en el que he estado. Lamentablemente no recuerdo el nombre del guía para mencionarlo por aquí. Se nota que tiene un gran conocimiento de la historia de Alemania y Berlin, además de que al hablar lo hace con pasión, de manera que no se hizo aburrido en ningún momento. Junto con la explicación utilizaba fotografías históricas y mapas, y antes de comenzar la ruta nos hizo un breve resumen de la historia de Berlin para ponernos en contexto. Recomendado Translate this opinion into English.

The best tour I have ever been on. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the guide to mention him here. You can tell he has a great knowledge of the history of Germany and Berlin, and he speaks with passion, so it never got boring.

Freetour Berlín con Jorge. Fueron tres horas largas muy amenas y didácticas. Un pequeño apunte: Jorge alabo como se ha abordado la memoria histórica en Alemania, "se han mostrado los excesos de ambos extremos y deberíamos tomar nota". En ese punto discrepo. Equiparar RDA y nazismo sería como poner al mismo nivel militares golpistas del 36 y el gobierno de la Republica. Por último, eche en falta que se mostrarán un poco más los claroscuros de ambos bloques -habia puntos posit y negativo en ambos- Translate this opinion into English.

Free tour Berlin with Jorge. It was a long three hours, very enjoyable and educational. A small note: Jorge praised the way historical memory has been addressed in Germany, "the excesses of both extremes have been shown and we should take note." On that point I disagree. Equating the GDR and Nazism would be like putting the military coup leaders of 1936 and the government of the Republic on the same level. Finally, I missed the fact that the chiaroscuros of both blocks were shown a little more - there were positive and negative points in both. Opinion translated. Show original.

Interesante, pero no tanto como otras que he hecho en distintas ciudades de Alemania. El guía (RF) gestionó un descanso en un lugar con un solo bar, bastante regulero, y nos dio la impresión de que tenía un acuerdo con ellos. Y todo su interés era ofrecernos más tours por la ciudad. Dicho esto, nos gustó el recorrido y la planificación, a excepción de la parada. Translate this opinion into English.

Interesting, but not as interesting as other tours I've done in different cities in Germany. The guide (RF) arranged a break at a place with only one bar, which was pretty average, and gave us the impression that he had an agreement with them. And his only interest was to offer us more tours around the city. That said, we liked the tour and the planning, except for the stop. Opinion translated. Show original.

Alberto ha demostrado su amplio conocimiento sobre la historia de Alemania y ha sabido transmitirla de una forma amena, algo muy necesario para aquéllos que la tenemos más olvidada y, además, con un sentido del humor que lo hacía más agradable y llevadero, teniendo en cuenta que la duración del tour es de algo más de 3 horas.
