Berlin Experiences

Berlin Experiences is the companion app to berlinexperiences.com — private guided tours of Berlin, led by historians since 2004. No account, no sign-up, no sign-in. Open the app and everything is there. Browse the full catalogue of twenty private experiences, see exactly what each one costs and how long it runs, and explore the city's history between tours with archive photography, quizzes and a daily almanac. WHAT'S INSIDE The catalogue — all twenty private experiences in one list: one-hour introductions, half-day walks, and full-day tours by private van. Filter by length in a single tap, and see duration, group size, transport and total price before you go anywhere near a booking form. Then & Now — stand where the photographer stood. Drag a seam across a paired archive photograph and the present-day view, and watch a street, a square or a facade change. The distance to each photo location is worked out on your own device. Play — seven quizzes on Berlin's history, written by the guide who runs the tours: the Wall, the Third Reich, Weimar, Cold War Berlin and more. Plus Guess the Year, Object Guesser, and Pathfinder — six questions that point you at the tour that actually fits. On this day in Berlin — a dated entry from the city's history, every day, with sources. Nearby — an open map of the sites the tours visit, with walking distance from wherever you happen to be standing. Tour notes — long-form companion reading on Marginalia, our notes archive. BOOKING HAPPENS ON THE WEBSITE Dates, availability, options and payment all live on berlinexperiences.com. Tapping through to book opens that tour's page in your browser, where you can check availability and pay securely. Nothing is bought or paid for inside the app. PRIVACY The app collects nothing. There is no account to create, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. If you allow location access, your position is used on your device to work out how far away something is, and is never sent anywhere. The camera is used only as a live viewfinder on the Then & Now screen — no photograph is taken, saved or uploaded.
