We were in Berlin for a short time and wanted to have an inside of the history of the city and visit some highlights places.
Bjorn was our guide for our bicycle tour.
He came directly to our hotel for the meeting which was great for us.
As a berliner, Bjorn has a great knowledge of the city and took us in some places we would not have been able to discover by ourself.
The great thing was that with his capacity to link the places with the history, we were able to understand much better the evolution of the city.
He conducted the tour in French as my mother didn't speak German or English. And he also adapted to our desire to see certain places and riding pace.
I would definitely recommend Bjorn for any of your tour in Berlin, it was a lovely experience we will remember for long. The highlight of our stay.

I have done an extensive amount of travelling as both a tourist and as a professional performing musician.
I've gone on many, many tours and I have to say that Berlin Like a Local is one of the most fascinating and educational tours I've ever been on. Bianca Gépoint is funny, warm, very intelligent, extremely well informed and I feel like I got a chance to see a side of
Berlin that I would never have seen had I not taken her tour.
I also loved her explanation about what was happening to Berlin in terms of increased 'gentrification'. She also had a fascinating 'underground' take on Berlin culture that I feel is frequently missing from typical tourist tours.
She is fluent in German, French and English (at least) and is very well informed about the rest of the world and the cultures of , at least, those three countries.
I cannot more highly recommend this tourist. It is absolutely unique and Bianca Gépoint is the reason why!
FIVE STARS! UNEQUIVOCALLY!!!

What a wonderful tour! Eric was awesome, super informative, engaging, and gave us a way better understanding of the history of Berlin. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a private tour experience. When friends and family come to visit we’ll bring them to Berlin for this tour. Also, ask Eric about “the Scorpions” and their song “Wind of Change.”

Very informative. Eric effectively catered to our specific interests and queries. Especially appreciated the tour of ‘socialist architecture’ on Karl Marx alle and its environs. Highly recommended.

Berlin is such an interesting city and full of so much unexpected street art that this tour was perfect! It allows you to enjoy the streets of Berlin by bike while also seeing some great graffiti art. Our tour guide, Alice, was perfection. Informed, fun and someone you wanted to hang out with all day long. We highly recommend this tour.

This was the second time that we used Eric. We had previously done the Berlin Wall Walking tour and this time asked for a Third Reich Walking Tour. Eric is a very engaging and extremely informative tour guide and answered all our questions. Eric told and showed us exactly what we had asked for and the information he provided was spot on. My Wife and I had a private tour which we can highly recommend as allowed Eric to pace the tour and stop as when needed to answer our questions. A totally brilliant tour with Eric. T&T

This was an excellent tour. Our guide took us on a fascinating walk around Berlin looking at some of the city’s best urban artwork. We travelled all over by foot and train and saw many off best urban sites. Highly recommend.
