Highly recommend!

Misti, Aug 2025

Anne was a great guide and Matio was a great driver! We really enjoyed the trip. They picked us up promptly and had us back at the ship in plenty of time. The history was amazing! Anne was very knowledgeable. She was also very patient as we had a group on our tour that apparently didn't read the description and just thought this was a German beer tour (which it is clearly not!) and kept interrupting her asking for a beer stop. I definitely recommend!

Terrible, not organized,...

Viktor_K, Jul 2025

Terrible, not organized, not knowledgeable guide. No headphones for such a big group. We spend most of the time trying to not to get lost. I definitely not going to recommend this excursion.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Dear Viktor, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We were genuinely surprised by your comments, as they differ greatly from what we consistently hear from other guests. The tour you are referring to is one of our top-rated excursions, with over 70 five-star reviews and a Badge of Excellence. In fact, we received multiple five-star reviews for the exact same tour on the same date, which makes your experience particularly surprising to us. The guide who led your group is one of our most trusted and experienced team members, frequently praised for both their knowledge and warm communication style. While we do not provide or advertise the use of headphones on this tour, we do limit our group sizes to 35 participants maximum, specifically to ensure a high-quality and manageable experience for everyone. Given how different your feedback is from the norm, we wonder whether there might have been a mix-up or misunderstanding. We’ve also reached out to you privately, and we’d really appreciate the chance to understand more about your experience and to clarify anything that may have gone wrong. Kind regards, Vexperio Team

Berlin experience

Sonia_G, Jul 2025

Our tour guide, Anne, was excellent. Very informative and knowledgeable. We got to know Berlin very well with her. Answered all questions. Gave free time for personal exploring. Passengers on bus were respectful of time that Anne allotted. A very pleasant day. We got back to the ship in plenty of time before departure. Anne was very well aware of our ship departure time.
