The rich history of the city of Berlin has resulted in plenty of sights to see. A little over 100 years ago Berlin was the capital of the German Empire and just 35 years ago the city was split in half until the fall of the Berlin Wall. Today the city celebrates freedom and diversity without forgetting its past.
There is so much to see and do in Berlin, many things are related to the city and the country's past. For example, you can see how the city grew at Little BIG City or explore its murky past at The Berlin Dungeon. Or visit the DDR Museum to learn more about what life what like in the city when it was split in two by the Berlin Wall. The departure point for the Cruise on the Spree is across the water from the Humboldt Forum.
Not all sights in the Berlin are marked by the city's history though. You can climb to the top of the TV-Tower on Alexanderplatz for an amazing view or enjoy the greenery of Tiergarten. Go shopping on Ku'damm or explore the Art Nouveau courtyards of Hackesche Höfe. With this Hop-on Hop-off bus you can discover the German capital at your own pace.

A great way to see all the sights of Berlin, the tour is nearly 3 hours long in one lap. There is an audio guide in several languages. You do get really close to all of the attractions. The bus driver was friendly and welcoming.
Great service, friendly staff and great views! Would recommend the Hop on Hop off bus as a great way to see Berlin. Be prepared though, the entire route is @2.5 hours long!
Okay … I have just read the recent reviews and it would seem some individual(s) rated the Sight Seeing of Berlin (Hop On, Hop Off) as not particularly great. However, I have found my tour brilliant. Whilst the tour bus, was not particularly crowded. Claudes, the bus/tour guide, was exceptionally brilliant, so knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour. Appreciated his storytelling of why the Berlin Wall was built,; explained the Berlin Wall Museum and the drawings etc … we stopped twice for a 15 minute break. Claudes, spoke about the history of Berlin and it’s check points. It’s a shame, you can’t ask for Claudes, for your tour guide … he was & is brilliant 😊
We purchased a ticket that gave us a 48 hour pass with guided walking tour and free curry wurst. The directions to activate your ticket were not great, nor was information on redeeming your curry wurst. However the actual tour bus was great. The first driver we had was entirely unhelpful but the other ones were excellent. Also the sellers and agents around the mail stops were super helpful. The English guy we had for the walking tour was hilarious and very knowledgeable. He really did an excellent job.
I would have been unable to experience visiting all of these sights without using this bus service......and just like in London, another bus will soon arrive, after you visit a given stop.
The bus ride was a great way to see the city and listen to someone tell us about all the highlights of what we were seeing. Super easy to hop on and off. The boat tour was nice but we didn’t understand anything said since it wasn’t in English…but it was still a nice ride.
Read a few poor reviews but have to say ours was a good experience. Talked to a few of the ticket sellers as they lower their prices as you move around. We were happy with the price we paid. We enjoyed the banter on the commentary and have little to complain about. This company pairs up with another so there's more choice of buses at each stop. There is a negative in that there are no *bus stops* so you have to remember where you got off. We bought tickets and boarded where there were ticket sellers. That helped, but they're not at every stop. One other gripe was other tourists chatting loudly so we couldn't hear the commentary. Overall, a great way to see the highlights of Berlin.
Tour bus handy - right outside our hotel at East Side Gallery stop! Bought 2 day ticket for extra 4 euros which was worth it. They let you use red hop on and hop off bus as well as the red city sightseeing bus so both were quite frequent. Did full tour took 2 hours but bus does stop as major sights for 15 mins during that time ie Brandenburg gate and also at stop 1. Detailed recorded tour although sometimes it continues even when you are at red lights so unsure what its referring too but still informative. There was a boat ride but we couldnt find where to pick this up from so ended up doing a separate boat tour on Reederei Hadynski which was very good. Bus was clean and soft drinks available but you need cash as card machine didnt work.
I traveled to Berlin for a day trip with my son and therefore needed the ability to see as many of the sights in a short space of time and this tour ticked the box. We booked the combined tour and one hour river trip in advance and when we got to the central station it was really easy to find the bus stop, number 19 on the list. As one can imagine the bus was quite full but we managed to get upstairs seats and had great 360 views. A downside, not worth marking down was that the initial Jack for the headphones was as faulty but the next one did. The circular tour takes 2.5 hours if one stays on but the clue is in the name so we hopped off for the river cruise before getting back on at a different stop to get back to the station. The guided information adds humour to interesting facts. Well worth using to understand Berlin
A great way to see the sights over two days - the 2 day ticket is good value. One downside - the really cheesy audio track. Very informative, though.
Der Busfahrer Jörg, ist eine richtig coole Socke und geht auf seine Gäste ein, zehn von zehn Punkten!😊
Ich selbst habe einige Jahre in Berlin gewohnt und habe noch Verwandtschaft dort. Wenn ich nun zu Besuch in Berlin bin und Rundfahrten buche, wähle ich City Sightseeing Berlin quasi aus Gewohnheit. Dieses Mal jedoch bin ich so dermaßen überzeugt, dass ich sogar eine Bewertung schreibe. Das liegt an Klaus. Klaus ist der Busfahrer, der uns an unserem zweiten Tag durch Berlin begleitete. Wir hatten das 48-Stunden Ticket gebucht, da wir damit rechneten, dass am 03.10. bestimmt einige Demos und Kundgebungen unsere Rundfahrt "stören" würden (was dann ja auch so war). Wir stiegen zu Klaus in den Bus und bekamen eine very special Rundfahrt. Das Wetter war kühl und windig, so dass das Dach eh geschlossen war. Also blieben wir im unteren Bereich. Klaus ist das komplette Gegenteil vom kaltschnäuzigen Berliner. Er begrüßte jeden neuen Fahrgast sehr persönlich (obwohl er die Menschen ja noch gar nicht kannte!) und souverän in diversen Sprachen. Jeder fühlte sich willkommen. Falls jemand filmbegeistert ist: wartet auf Klaus. Er weiß genau, welche Filme wo in Berlin gedreht wurden (aktuell: Tribute von Panem). Wir haben auf dieser Tour so viel mitbekommen, was nicht in den Kopfhörer-Ansagen erwähnt wurde! Meine (19jährige) Tochter hat angekündigt, dass sie auf ihrer nächsten Berlin-Reise nur noch mit Klaus fahren möchte. Wir haben tatsächlich einige Stopps, an denen wir eigentlich aussteigen wollten, ausgelassen, um weiter mit Klaus zu fahren (und haben sie dann später erlaufen). Achtet darauf, in welchen Bus Ihr einsteigt: die Hör-Texte des Kooperationspartners sind zwar natürlich ebenfalls informativ, aber sehr nüchtern und unpersönlich. Vielleicht kann man das mal anpassen? Wir stiegen um 17h in einen Bus am KaDeWe ein, dessen Fahrer uns dann mitteilte, dass er nur noch bis zum Potsdamer Platz führe (zwei Stationen). Bisschen irreführend, wenn es heißt, dass der nächste Bus um 17h kommt - wir waren davon ausgegangen, dass der Bus dann dann noch einmal die komplette Runde fahren würde. Zumal andere Unternehmer offenbar länger unterwegs waren (wir haben die Busse der Konkurrenz deutlich später noch gesehen). Trotzdem und ganz deutlich: absolute Empfehlung für die Tour mit Klaus. Für den Kooperationspartner spreche ich ganz deutlich keine Empfehlung aus. Es kam kein Hinweis, dass die gebuchte Strecke gesperrt war und ein Hinweis auf möglicherweise auf möglicherwiese veränderte Routen fehlte ebenfalls. Auf einem Teilstück waren auch die Kopfhörerbuchsen offenbar kaputt. Auf unseren Hinweis erhielten wir vom Fahrer (nicht Klaus!) ein eher unfreundliches: "Det passiert". Klaus ist für uns ein absolutes Argument für diese Tour mit diesem Unternehmen. Ich weiß jetzt, warum es in Berlin überall diese überirdischen Rohre gibt (die ich bisher für misslungene Kunstinstallationen gehalten habe) und ich weiß, wo es den Schacht gibt, der der Stasi damals die Spionage des Alex ermöglichte. Und: Klaus, falls du das liest: natürlich waren wir noch in den Hackeschen Höfen! Liebe Grüße von Natalie (die mit dem interessanten Pulli) und der Mutter!
Von Herzen ein grosses Dankeschön für diese Möglichkeit. Meine Schwiegermutter (85) war fasziniert von der Stadt und kaum aus dem Staunen nicht mehr heraus, wie gross Berlin doch ist. Für eine 85jährige ein absolutes Highlight, da sie nichts erlaufen musste und die Stadt sitzend geniessen konnte. Die Streckenführung war super. Die Stopps in der Stadt gut gewählöt und zentral. Die Häufigkeit der Busfrequenz war sehr praktisch und mit max 20min hat man stets Zeit, sich kurz die Beine zu vertreten und/oder ein Getränk zu kaufen. Der Bus war super sauber, das Personal professionell und super freundlich. Der Service während der Fahrt informativ und excellent. Unser Platz oben und in der Sonne war perfekt. Eine absolute Empfehlung!
Wir haben die negativen Bewertungen gelesen und können sie in keinster Weise nachvollziehen. Der Fahrer war nett und freundlich, konnte auch Fragen beantworten. Für die mangelnden Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kiel kann der Fahrer sicht nichts, im Gegenteil. Er hat versucht alles positiv zu erzählen.
It was good but I think too expensive. Lovely view and you only spend 15mims there. Very busy as well and we went during the lunch hour.
I've been visiting Berlin for close to 35 years and the Berlin Fernsehturm still impresses me . Standing 203 metres high ,its one of the emblematic structures of this fascinating city ,I've been up the tower several times,enjoyed meals and drinks here and took in the sites of this city from this vantage point ,its popular, its always busy but it's also so very cool ,its also one of the most photographed buildings in Berlin, most definitely well worth checking out if you're planning a holiday to Berlin and easy to locate along Panoranastraße.
Maybe we were lucky - but we just bought a ticket when we decided to go up the tower. Another couple arrived with their pre-paid ticket but told to come back when it was their allotted time (seemed a bit harsh). So, not 100% sure the benefit of pre-booking? Maybe tickets are cheaper. Anyway, queued inside for around 10 minutes waiting for our turn in the lift. Up top, some really cracking views. Really interesting picking out the landmarks. A lot of people where enjoying a late-afternoon/early-evening beverage and I decided to join them. The only thing that was when bought my drink - at the bar - they presented the payment terminal with various options as to how much tip you wanted to give. Bit of a cheek! (All the chap had done was pout me a drink). I couldn't see the non-tip option and being British was too embarrassed to ask. But it was still a nice drink gazing out the window.
£25 to get to the observation deck..the views are great, spoilt slightly by reflection. The bar up the top sells lo al craft beer and makes for an enjoyable visit. I definitely think this is worth a stop on anyone itinerary in Berlin..
This is a must visit in Berlin. Spent well over 1 hour up top and had a wonderful breakfast. The view is breathtaking. I recommend the VR toor downstairs too for additional €. Two options to choose from: Berlin Story and TV tower story. Would definitely visit again!
Despite this being our 13th visit to Berlin, it was our first to the observation deck. Arriving slightly earlier than our 11AM admission we were granted entry. There was no queue for the elevator & quickly we found ourself at the top for spectacular 360c views of Berlin and beyond. The information at the viewing platform was available in German, English, French & Spanish. It was great to see the city sights and familiar places from above. There was a bar on the observation deck to make your time viewing the city even more enjoyable. Back at ground level you’ll find a gift shop and the VR experience which I’m so glad that we paid the extra for. There were 2 video options, the history of the TV tower or the history of Berlin. Opting for the latter it was interesting to see Berlin from centuries ago to present day. The experience lasted around 15 minutes and headsets were available in smaller sizes for children too. A memorable visit which I’d highly recommend.
The Berliner Fernsehturm offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city from its observation deck, which is a highlight of the experience. The ride up the tower is smooth and quick, and once at the top, you’ll be treated to a 360-degree view of Berlin's skyline. The tower's iconic design and its prominence in the city make it a landmark you can't miss. It's a perfect way to get a sense of Berlin’s layout and beauty from above.
TV-Tower, the restaurant: A very special way to see Berlin from above, and I can recommend it. You need to reserve a table online. You can enter the tower 15 min. before your reservation. Meaning if your table is reserved for 13:00, you can enter the tower at 12:45 and not before (you will not be let in). You can bring a normal rucksack and it will be searched and you will have to go through a metal detector. You then scan your ticket and go to the elevator and a guard will help you enter. The elevator is really fast and you’ll feel your ears pop. Once up you’ll go to the right and your reservation will be checked and you’ll get your table number which is on the lamp on the table. There’s a normal observation deck where you walk round, and the restaurant is upstairs. You seat yourself and a waiter will come. The waiter will give you a menu card but - I thought the food was terrible, the taste and consistency was just disgusting. I’ve been to Germany many times, so I know what it’s supposed to taste like. Just buy coffee and cake and enjoy the view and the fact that you are circling - and it has air-con. I believe you can stay for 2 hours. Once down again you can visit the tourist shop.
If you like to see a Birds Eye view of a city then you will enjoy a trip up the TV tower. But once you have walked the perimeter of the tower there is little else to do unless you plan to visit the bar. We were lucky because we visited on a clear day, I am not sure whether the view would be as good on a foggy/windy/rainy day.
Visiting the Berliner Fernsehturm during my solo trip to Berlin this August was an unforgettable experience. As one of the city’s most iconic landmarks, the TV Tower stands tall over Berlin’s skyline, and I knew I couldn’t leave without seeing the view from the top. I booked my ticket online to avoid the lines, which was a good move because the tower is a popular spot. The ride up the elevator was quick, and within seconds, I was 203 meters above the city. The observation deck offers a 360-degree view of Berlin, and it was absolutely breathtaking. Seeing the city spread out beneath me, from the historic buildings to the modern architecture, really put into perspective how dynamic and diverse Berlin is. What made the experience even better was the clear weather that day, allowing me to see landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag, and the Spree River in the distance. I spent a while just soaking in the view, trying to spot all the places I had visited during my trip. There’s also a revolving restaurant, which seemed like a great place to enjoy a meal with a view, but I opted to stay on the observation deck to maximize my time taking in the scenery. The Berliner Fernsehturm is definitely worth a visit if you’re in Berlin, especially if you enjoy city views. It’s a great way to get a new perspective on the city and see just how vast and varied Berlin really is. For solo travelers, it’s a must-do experience that offers some incredible photo opportunities and a chance to reflect on your journey through the city.
On a very hot day it is stifling up there - but it was a VERY hot day to be fair... we went up at sunset and the view was lovely, with information signs of what you can see. If you get vertigo do not look up in the lift the ceiling is glass! The bar area is small but the sparkling wine and currywurst were very good! Didn't try the VR Experience or the restaurant.
OMG it’s high. LOL 😂😂 Outstanding 360° views 670 feet up over the city. Needed the bier at the top to steady my nerves. Hahahahahaha Virtual reality attraction was very clever indeed.
Iconic evening. Such a great experience - good food, good service and amazing views - teenagers loved it (as did we). Decor defiantly and beautifully retro. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent views of Berlin. A very well organised tour. The lift is superb exceptionally fast. The display boards indicating monuments and areas in the city is very helpful.
Can't miss seeing it when in the city center, park/fountain near by, Hop On Hop Off bus tours leave from this area, lots of restaurants and shops very close
Eventhough prizy it is worth to see the city from the sky. Just avoid the restaurant on the sucond floor. Separate reviews for the Sphere restaurant.
We booked for the Restaurant sphere, thinking to enjoy food and the view, but we were underwhelmed by the food: tasteless and unattractive, while the place smelt of school dinners cooked elsewhere and reheated. I know you can't expect first class food at the top of such a tower, but this was unimaginative and something of a rip off.
Visiting the Berlin TV Tower is one of our Berlin travel highlights. Contrary to some of the reviews I have read here, I found the tv tower fun and enjoyable. We bought tickets that has entry to the restaurant. The food was amazing, we ordered the fish and lamb fish. Perfectly done and so tasty. All the desserts were heavenly. We ordered the desserts offered on the meny, the panna cotta and chocolate cake. After we finished, we ordered 2 more cakes, the black forest and cheesecake. Yummy!
The Berliner Fernsehturm offers a unique panorama and an unforgettable view of the entire city from over 200 meters above ground. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, visiting the TV Tower is a must-do experience.
Quite a lot of money but it does what it says! Saw some of the reviews were quite negative but it is what it is and for that it was ok! Lift works well and takes you to great views with plenty of information about the different parts of the city. Make sure you check for private events and closing times as website didn’t meet reality for us! Worth a visit if you’re on the all inclusive Berlin welcome card or like these things! I preferred the view from the Berlin cathedral (Berliner dom) and the Reichstag and both better if you have limited time!
It was all about the view and the added information with pictures in front of the windows was a bonus! These would, however, be difficult to read, if it was busy!
We thoroughly enjoyed it! Loved the 'retro' vibe of it all! But do feel its a little expensive. (But it was something we wanted to visit) .We paid at the ticket machine when we arrived which proved to be a bit of a problem as the machine didn't print the tickets - luckily it never took payment, and printed them on our second attempt. We also discovered, after our visit, that if you booked on line there was on offer that if you went before 10am the ticket price was €5 cheaper! We went at 1030 on a Tuesday and there weren't many people which made the experience better. We fell lucky as it was a clear day and the views are amazing. I recommend taking a bottle of water as it does get very warm and 'stuffy', take your own as the vending machine at the top is also expensive! Food isn't allowed. There is a gift shop too - also expensive! To sum it up - a great over priced experience!
The TV Tower dominates the Berlin skyline being visible for miles around and as such gives the best views of the city. Yes, it is expensive but it's kind of worth it as it gives such a good introduction to the city and is right there in the middle of everything. Its free of course with a Berlin card - a good reason to get one. The queues are lengthy at times though so it's best to go either early or maybe towards the end of the afternoon. I'm an early riser so getting there early was no problem for me. The exhibition on the history of the tower is worth a look as well to give you a perspective on how and why it was built.
This is a must do in Berlin! We had a 3 course meal in the restaurant which was amazing and the restaurant did a 360 spin, providing the perfect view of the city. It was amazing!
We booked tickets online in advance and printed out our tickets at home and brought them with us but you can also buy tickets at the entrance or online and download them to your phone....we booked a time slot and arrived 15 minutes early...a few people in a queue but we got in very quickly. We did the virtual reality experience first...there were 2 options for the VR headset....either a film about the history of Berlin or one about the building of the Tower. Each person can choose individually which to watch....we opted for the history film which was great. Then we queued again to ascend in the lift..again the queue moved quickly and staff were great and cheerful chatting to people in the queue. The lift takes 40seconds and has a glass roof which is cool...on the observation deck you can take as long as you need to go around in a circle and see the layout of Berlin city....it really gives an idea of where everything is so is a great first introduction to the city....there is a bar on the observation deck if you fancy a coffee or drink. Back down on ground floor there are toilets, cloakroom, and a gift shop with helpful staff there too. We were travelling with out teenage son and he really enjoyed the experience and would recommend it for other young people. Very well organised and we really enjoyed our experience!
A lovely visit up the TV Tower. The views were excellent and the guides helped to show what you could see. It was also helpful having a bar area for a drink whilst up there. The only negative was the heat, they needed to turn it down as it got very warm. Overall it is well worth visiting.
We visited yesterday and were not disappointed. I didn't realise this attraction was linked to the 360 in Chicago which we did a few years ago. The lift ride up is quite quick and the roof lights up so you can see when you have reached the top. The views are amazing once you are up there, we were lucky because we had picked a really nice sunny and clear day so we could see for miles. The information at each window is really good to, tells you what you are looking at and gives a little history lesson. This is one of the best towers we have visited and it's not too expensive to do either. We paid around €50.
The beauty of the center lies precisely here, you can shop wherever you want, but the roads were built here, a true icon of the city!
I visited on a Sunday morning at opening time at 10am. 360 Views from the top are terrific and well worth it and are provided with images below pointing out key landmarks and supporting info. Thankfully it wasn't too busy at opening time but was a lot busier by the time I headed down at 11am. I felt there were too many people there then and had to queue at each viewing place to look out. Also, there was no staff keeping people moving along - For instance one person was stood in front of the window looking down Unter Den Linden for over 15 minutes scrolling through their Instagram and one family looked like they were setting up a picnic with their coats over the supporting images! The History of Berlin VR was excellent and I would recommend.
We went there in February 2023 It was a cool experience. But first you should stay in line and wait a little bit. Then smell in elevator might be unpleasant. But when you get to the top the view is great. You can walk around and see 360*
Whilst wandering around the city, the tower is visible from so many points, and is always makes for a fine view... Especially up close.
Love Berlin, a great City with lots to do and see. Transport great, plenty of places to eat for all prices.
It was a quiet Monday morning when we visited so we bought tickets and got straight on the elevator with no queuing at all. The views from the top were great and there was information about what you could see in each direction. There was also no queue to get back down. There was a gift shop and toilets available near the entrance.
We booked a window seat in advance at the restaurant which gave us the great views in the spinning restaurant (full cycle in 30 minutes). We had a decent meal to go along with 90 minutes or so of great evening views across Berlin. Well worth going to and i would book the restaurant again. We were able to go to the viewing platform on the floor below as part of the experience, but busier times this may not be allowed.
We booked this in advance for our first day in the morning (09:00). It was a little bit crowded after 9:30, but we were able to enjoy the view over Berlin.
The TV Tower was an iconic symbol of the German Democratic Republic the last time I was in Germany, now it’s an easily accessible tourist attraction. It’s an excellent viewing platform to go round and view points of interest and learn more about the history of Berlin. The photographs of the view could be updated as some are seriously out of date. The restaurant is an excellent visit with a wide selection of local specialties, it’s highly recommended and the staff were very helpful and friendly.
Very touristy, but a really cool experience. Views of the city are great and you can see the divide of East vs. West pretty clearly from above (architecturally). Gift shop also had some cool souvenirs to take back.
I don't understand why this is not higher on the things to do. Outstanding view. Great food and service. We were a little late and they extended our stay no problems. Wonderful experience
Prebooked reservation for dinner. Book near window for best view. Entrance is timed and must go up two flights of stairs to visitor level then another to restaurant. Sunset views of entire city as platform slowly moves. Food was decent. Live piano player during meal, can dress casual. Neat to see contrast of West to East.
We came at 10.00 and it was not so crowded. Later it was full of people. Actually it’s all about walking around the sphere, looking at the signed map with some descriptions of buildings. But many of them are located far, so you see a photo and a description but not a real building. While not those which are close and well seen are described, even those looking really old. One circle around the floor took about 30min. We also took a VR session - a video about 8min long. Could be more exciting but still is a good experience.
Only 4 out of 5. Tickes are time slotted which sounds great. No queue to get in on slotted time. Lift all the way to the top. Fantastic views. Lots of information about the views at each window. Downside: do not understand the time slots due to there being too many people up there at once, very crowded and was not able to see every view. I thought having a time slot would control the amount of people up there. Wait time for the lift down was about 25 minutes due to the amount of people. Something to be improved on? Would recommend a visit as views that we did see were brilliant.
Great views from the top of the tower. No queue so really quick access however it did feel like there were too many people at the viewing deck trying to read the information about the buildings in view There was no time limit to how long you could spend at the top which sort of solves the problem and causes it at the same time Quite pricey but definitely the best view in Berlin!
Great views of the city, easy access and really thorough history and context of the buildings you can see from the tower. We weren’t quite expecting how different the architecture was East vs West but you could see it clearly from up the tower which was great. The VR experience was good, and we would recommend, however make sure you get the combined ticket as the VR is not worth the money on it’s own (also check the ticket as we asked for the combined but they gave us it separately so we had to pay more for each one).
Got off at Alexanderplatz S bahn station and as you walk outside I looked across and saw the TV Tower, Crossing the tram tracks and walked towards it. Alexanderplatz has plenty of places to eat and shop..Waited for my timed entry which I prebooked and went in, The lift is very fast and it takes only a few minutes to reach the top. The views are stunning and as you walk round the top there are picture placards telling you what you are looking at..You can stay as long as you wish as well.. After I came down to the main entrance I prebooked with my entrance ticket With a extra visual expierience, Absolutely brilliant, You wear these goggles and headphones in your own language it tells you the story of how Berlin grew from 1237 to the present day, Turn your head 90 degress and you can witness all of the figures in moving form, The realism is fantastic..Well worth the extra money.. The staff were great as well...
This is the tallest building in Berlin, I believe, and you can travel to the observation platform and get fantastic views of Berlin. I've been to a similar building in a few cities now, but the information boards in the Berlin TV Tower made it the best experience for me.
Elle vaut le coup, en plus d'un super panorama en coeur de Berlin, il y beaucoup d'explications sur les batiments et leur histoire (si certain font le tour en 15 min, c'est qu'ils ne lisent rien.....) Il y a un petit bar pour prendre un verre La visite fonctionne par créneau donc en vous rendant sur place, il y a de grande chance que tout soit parti et reste les crénaux du soir..... (nous y étions en novembre donc à 16h00 le soleil se couche) Bien sur Berlin la nuit c'est aussi sympa je présume. Sinon acheter le ticket à l'avance sur leur site (mais je ne sais pas si on a la possiblité d'appliquer la réduction si on a la carte Berlin welcomecard....) Pas pris le tciket VRR (réalité virtuelle) je ne sais pas ce que ça vaut Attraction que je recommande pour voir l'histoire de Berlin de haut
For anden gang besøgte vi Fernsehturm for at nyde den fantastiske udsigt over Berlin. Det er en oplevelse jeg aldrig bliver træt af og vil klart anbefale at besøge tårnet når du er i Berlin.
Der Fernsehturm ist eine wirkliche Attraktion. Der Ausblick und in unserem Fall das Essen im Restaurant. Der Einlass allerdings ist katastrophal schlecht organisiert und der Mitarbeiter der den Einlass durchführte zeichnete sich durch Herumbrüllen und komplett inkompetente Versuche aus, die Situation zu erklären. Natürlich gebrüllt. Als wir erstmal oben waren, war alles sehr schön.
La torre della televisione di Berlino è uno dei simboli iconici della capitale tedesca, è nella famosissima Alexanderplatz, è alta ben 368 metri e la vista panoramica verso tutta la città è veramente magnifica. Nella torre è presente anche un ristorante per una cena con vista!al piano terra abbiamo anche vissuto un esperienza 3d con dei vissuti che facevano vedere la storia della città fin dalla sua nascita. Si può volendo anche vedere la storia della costruzione della torre. Assolutamente una delle cose da fare a Berlino.
Caro pero..... Estando ahi en visita corta de unos días ,la torre si merece la pena subir, y ver todo el Berlin en 'plan' panoramica. Hay mas opciones como la bola de cristal en el parlamento y otra torre más pequeña (Pero con subir en esta te ahorras tiempo y no hace falta entrar en las otras ,en mi opinión)
