About this experience
Berlin is a city with many stories. Learn how the Wall was secretly built overnight in Berlin in 1961 on this eye-opening walking tour, including the grounds of the Bernauer Strasse Memorial.
See various memorials in honour of those who lost their lives trying to cross into the West, and discuss what life was really like in East Germany. Witness the "Death Strip", hear about amazing escape attempts, and find out about the so-called ghost stations.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
