Itinerary

  • Fuhrerbunker

    10 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Explore the chilling history of Hitler’s Bunker on a private WWII tour that takes you to the site of the Führerbunker, where Adolf Hitler spent his last days in 1945. This infamous underground shelter, located near today’s Potsdamer Platz, was a fortified structure deep below ground, part of a larger bunker complex designed to protect Nazi leaders from Allied air raids. Here, key decisions were made as Berlin fell, leading to the war’s dramatic conclusion and Hitler’s own demise.

With insights into Berlin's post-war transformation, this private tour provides a unique and deeply reflective journey through one of the most notorious locations of WWII.

This street once divided East and West Berlin, and today, it stands as a powerful reminder of the city’s turbulent past. During your visit, you’ll explore the Berlin Wall Memorial, which preserves remnants of the Wall, along with a watchtower and the preserved "death strip" that once separated families. Learn about Tunnel 29 and Tunnel 57—daring escape routes used by East Berliners to flee to the West—and discover the stories of those who risked everything for freedom.

Situated in the historic Bendlerblock, the memorial honors the men and women who risked everything to defy Hitler’s dictatorship, including those involved in the famous 1944 assassination attempt led by Claus von Stauffenberg. Your private tour will take you through the center’s thought-provoking exhibits, which showcase the different resistance movements that arose within Germany—ranging from small, underground groups to high-ranking officials within the military and government.

    On our walking tour, we'll visit the site of the former NKVD and Stasi prison on Fröbelstrasse—a haunting reminder of East Berlin’s oppressive surveillance state. Originally used by the Soviet NKVD in the late 1940s, the prison later came under control of the East German Stasi, the notorious state security service. Here, countless political prisoners were interrogated and detained under brutal conditions. This site provides a chilling glimpse into the tactics of intimidation and control employed during the Cold War era, offering an important perspective on life behind the Iron Curtain and the resilience of those who endured it.
