The THIRD
REICH Tour

"Matthew was an excellent guide for our family of four. He was very affable and caring, and extremely knowledgable. We couldn't have engaged a better guide to show us Berlin's sights and history. His previous career as a journalist shows through during the tour as he gave in depth illustrations and narrations of Berlin's role in WWII and the unification of Germany. His partnership with Markus as the driver added an extra special touch to the day. Will highly recommend Matthew as a guide for Berlin!"

"We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the Sachsenhausen concentration camp. Our guide Matthew was brilliant - super friendly, helpful, considerate and extremely knowledgeable. He had a special way that he presented this dark and heavy material that kept us engaged throughout the tour. We were able to learn and process everything in our own way and in our own time. Thank you again Matthew we wouldn't have wanted anybody else to show us around!"

"Excellent guide. Started tour earlier to avoid late afternoon rain. Added history and pictures when visiting sites was super. One of the best tours to date. From Britain who has been in Berlin for many years. His Journalism background was a real plus. Markus, the driver, added his personal escape story from East Germany and personal experiences as well. Couldn't have been a better intro to Berlin during our first visit to the city. Fabulous day !!"

"Matthew was a very informed, professional, and yet personable and energetic guide for our day in Berlin! He is a truly amazing guide, with a breadth of understanding of Berlin, its past, relevancy for the present, and potential to impact the future. He also explained both macro and micro moments in history with amazing clarity. We would very highly recommend him for small group or even family travel. If there were 6 stars, that's how we would rank him and Markus his driver."

"Thank you so much Matt for a great day in Berlin. We so appreciated being picked up at the cruise port by Thomas. He was so professional and kind, he took such great care to get us there and back safely. Matt, your guidance around Berlin and the knowledge and historical facts you shared with us were excellent. The private tour for our group couldn't have been better. We learned so much and you helped us to connect with the history & challenged how we viewed different aspects of it. You were Terrific!"

"This is a great tour. Potsdam is a beautiful city, a short ride outside of Berlin. It was the retreat of the former Prussian kings, including Frederick the Great. You will learn the little known history of these German/Prussian monarchs and will get to see their palaces. The trip also includes the site of the Potsdam Conference, where Truman, Churchill and Stalin decided the fate of post-War Europe. Matt is a phenomenal guide and knows this history cold. I highly recommend Matt's tour."

"Matt is undoubtedly the top guide we have ever had. Matt guided us for three days in Berlin and Potsdam and every moment was great. His depth of knowledge is impressive on its own. However, Matt has a unique ability to tell stories and use language and historic photos to create experiences that made us 'feel' like we were a part of the history in the moment. Matt was also very flexible and tailored our experience to our needs."

"My family took an all day tour with Matt and his driver Marcus. It was the best tour we have ever taken. Matt was by far the most knowledgeable tour guide I have ever had on such a broad range of topics. This was our first private tour so I was very worried about the cost and reward, but it far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this tour. The added bonus was having Marcus as our driver. He escaped East Berlin and to have him give his account of his journey was truly amazing."

"Matt is an outstanding tour guide! He is both incredibly knowledgeable and personable. This tour takes you to the sights of Cold War Berlin. I highly recommend this tour for Cold War history enthusiasts. There are so many highlights on this tour but one that stood out to me was walking on what was the East Berlin side of the wall (in what can be described as the kill zone) knowing that many people were shot and killed for trying to escape the communist East Germany. Matt Thanks for a memorable day!"

"My wife and are I pensioners in our seventies, we're not exactly fast walkers. We visited Berlin before and wanted an in depth tour of Berlin with a focus on the Third Reich. Matt showed us parts of the city that are relevant to the story that we didn't know, whilst taking our needs into consideration. Although we know quite a lot on the topic, Matt was more than able to give us a wealth of new information, going into fascinating details."

"Matt was professional from the first contact, he was very helpful and was quickly able to understand what my young family's brief would be. He organised a fantastic tour for us, which to be honest has been the highlight of our European holiday, we all had a lot of fun, happy kids, happy parents! Matt was extremely enthusiastic and very knowledgeable, the tour was 4 hours and it went extremely quickly."

"Matt Robinson is, simply put, a fantastic tour guide. His knowledge of World War II & the Cold War is exceptional & he is a great storyteller. Matt has the wonderful ability to put political, cultural, social & military history into context as he guides you through the streets of Berlin. Matt made the history of Berlin come alive."
