Cheap holidays and trips to Berlin

Experience tourism in a different way and cycle on your sightseeing tour around Berlin. Larger and smaller distances, such as between the Brandenburg  Gate and Alexanderplatz, can be easily covered by bicycle. Excursions around the Tiergarten or to one of the many lakes in the city area are worthwhile and fun.

Bicycle Rental Stations

You will find bike rental stations everywhere in Berlin: Most of them are located in Mitte (e.g., at the Friedrichstraße station), Kreuzberg, Friedrichshain or near the Zoologischer Garten station. Rental prices are around twelve euros per day - depending on whether you want a simple three-speed bike or a sports mountain bike for your excursions.

The Wall Cycling Tour in Berlin

The cycle route along the Wall Trail along the old stretch of the Wall is particularly well known. Take the first road, which is mostly paved. In the centre of Berlin, the route of the city wall is partly marked by a cobbled strip, and the traces of the city wall can usually be followed in quiet side streets.

Reinickendorf? Treptow-Köpenick? Is that still Berlin? Of course! The 12 Berlin districts are the true face of the German capital. Since: Berlin is not the same as Berlin. The great diversity of the districts has grown: Each neighbourhood, called a "Kiez" in Berlin, is marked by its own history – either Charlottenburg in the west by the upper bourgeoisie during the “Gründerzeit” (the time of the founders) or Marzahn in the east by the typically socialist architecture of the GDR. Former industrial complexes that have been transformed into impressive cultural institutions characterise Berlin's districts in the same way as their dreamy villages, comfortable cafés, colourful market squares and covered markets do; not to mention the vast green landscapes, rivers, and recreational lakes.

Berlin Centre

The centre of Berlin is first and foremost one thing: pure culture! Around the new Humboldt Forum you will find many first-class historical sights, but the other districts in the heart of the city will also surprise you: with the culture of life. Visit Mitte, Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Neukölln and Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf.

East Berlin

The eastern districts of Berlin follow one rule: no two are alike! Discover the castle of Frederick the Great's wife in Pankow, experience the concrete-slab tower blocks in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, visit the largest zoo in Europe in Lichtenberg, or sail the water in Treptow-Köpenick.

West Berlin

West Berlin captivates with its clear waters, vast green landscapes, and lively city life. Discover the lakes and cycle paths in Spandau and Steglitz-Zehlendorf, enjoy the shopping culture in Tempelhof-Schöneberg, or the cultural walks in Reinickendorf.
