A good overview, especially when traveling with guests in Berlin, is the “Time travel through Berlin tour”, one of the classics of videoSightseeing. The bus journey through time takes visitors from the Kaiser’s booming empire to the turbulent Golden Twenties, from the horrors of Nazism to Cold War times. The bus is equipped with video screens that show historical film clips or movie excerpts on their original set.
A tour that pleases locals as much a cineastes from all over the world is the tour “Movie City Berlin – The Rolling Cinema”. For two hours you follow the footsteps of great directors such as Billy Wilder, Wim Wenders oder Tom Tykwer. During the tour you see entertaining and fascinating film clips from movies like “The Legend of Paul and Paula”, “Run Lola Run” and “Goodbye Lenin”. The “rolling cinema” delves into almost 100 years of Berlin’s cinematic history.
This tour is suited for the entire family: While grandpa and grandma have an easy tour for their legs, the kids enjoy watching the show on the video screens.
