Tours & Workshops

Tours_FINAL

Our cultural-historical tours, led by long-term residents, take the form of informal but informed strolls that draw on history, literature, architecture and other cultural phenomena.

We aim to provide unique and personalised insights into the city’s past and present that appeal to both locals and visitors alike.

We usually limit numbers to six-eight people in order to encourage maximum interaction and minimum interruption to the neighbourhoods that we operate in, and keep the price deliberately affordable to encourage a broad range of participants.

Our tours and workshops have been mentioned in various German and international publications, from Easyjet Magazine and the Rough Guide to Berlin, to b.There MagazineIn Your Pocket, Flux FM, The Observer, Sydney Morning HeraldTagesspiegel and more.

Please note that our tours have been on hold during the pandemic. As things return to normal we will be creating new tours and re-publishing some of our favourites. We will also continue to offer tours for private groups and can arrange tailored itineraries. Please contact slowtravelberlin@gmail.com for more information.
