“Tobias was really engaging and friendly, and you could tell that he was passionate about LGBTQIA+ history within Berlin. This really helped move the experience along and we also really enjoyed the use of archive pictures and text which added an additional layer to the tour. The tour was a perfect length, with plenty of time being spent taking in the architecture and sights. Tobias was very accommodating when our transport was delayed and we had plenty of comfort stops during the tour. Tobias brought a brilliant wit to the tour and we as a group really enjoyed his company. Would highly recommend this tour, incredible value for money and…”

2.Historyof the Trans, Queer & Gay communities of Berlin tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 17 reviews · 2 hours · from $58

A small-group, 2-hour Berlin walk tracing Trans, Queer, and Gay stories from Hirschfeld by the Spree to Schöneberg’s Nollendorf heart.

“Gali’s “Street Art and Berlin Gay, Queer, and Trans History” tour was such a great experience. She really knows her stuff when it comes to Berlin’s art and cultural history and made the whole tour feel super engaging by tailoring it to what our group was interested in. I went with my 16-year-old doughter, and we both enjoyed it so much. The snow that started falling during the tour made everything feel extra special and added this magical vibe. If you want to see a different side of Berlin and learn something new, I can’t recommend this tour enough!”

3.Queer Berlin Tour: Birthplace of LGBTQ+ Movements

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6 reviews · 3 hours · from $153Top rated

3-hour Queer Berlin walking tour through Schöneberg, Hirschfeld’s Institute sites, and Cold War Alexanderplatz for $153.

“Justin was an excellent tour guide. His love of Berlin together with his in-depth knowledge of queer history made for an informative and captivating tour. It was helpful that he was born and raised in the US because he could reference familiar history and compare it to Berlin’s. Our group was wonderfully small which made the experience more intimate. One small suggestion for Justin — introduce everyone at the start of the tour! Thanks, Justin, for a really informative afternoon!!”
