The day trip to Berlin from our ship was seamless and outstanding! The driver, Peter, was a delight and got us quickly and safely to and from Berlin. Our guide, Mikhail, was a wealth of knowledge and took us everywhere it seemed. A very enjoyable and educational day.

Everything was great. The tour guide was very good and knowledgeable. They picked us up and dropped us off outside the cruise ship. We couldn't have done this tour on our own. We paid for it, but it was worth it. Highly recommended.
