There is probably no other city with as many Christmas markets as Berlin. On this three-hour tour, a local English-speaking guide will show you three of Berlin's most beautiful Christmas markets.
Your guided tour starts at the Brandenburg Gate, where a huge beautifully illuminated Christmas tree stands every year at Christmas time. The tour not only visits three different Christmas markets - it also passes important sights such as Berlin Cathedral, the City Palace and Humboldt University.
At the Christmas markets you can enjoy the festive atmosphere along with mulled wine, gingerbread hearts and roasted candied nuts. As you walk through the markets with their charming wooden stalls, you are sure to find the perfect traditional Christmas gift to put under the tree at home.
On the tour, your guide will take you from market to market and tell you exciting stories and fun facts about the many Christmas traditions in Germany: When did the first Christmas tree appear in Berlin? What do potatoes have to do with Christmas? How did Berliners celebrate Christmas during WWI and WWII?
The city tour of the Christmas markets in Berlin ends near two other Christmas markets at Alexanderpaltz near Berlin city hall - the so-called "Rotes Rathaus" - and the TV Tower. Here, you can end the day with some ice skating, a ride on the Ferris wheel and a classic bratwurst.
