What To Expect

Meet and greet the tour guide and group near in Alexanderplatz, a large public square and transport hub in the center of Berlin. After getting fitted for a Beach Cruiser bike and helmet, there is a brief introduction to Berlin before beginning the ride around and the capital city and cultural center of Germany.

Because there is so much to see in Berlin, this tour takes advantage of the many bike paths the city offers. More than 95 percent of the tour takes place on bike paths and through parks. Also, Berlin is quite flat and easy to traverse by bicycle. With frequent stops to learn about the sites and to take pictures, it all makes for a most enjoyable way to explore this fascinating place.

See the Berlin Wall Memorial and one of the last remaining sections of the wall itself. Stand above Adolf Hitler's bunker and recount the final days of the Third Reich. Check out Checkpoint Charlie, the best-known crossing point between East and West Berlin during the Cold War.

Pedal to the famous Brandenburg Gate, one of Berlin’s most important monuments. It was a symbol of division between Berlin and Germany during the Cold War, but it is now a national symbol of peace and unity. And visit the Reichstag Building, the meeting place of the German Parliament.

Also, ride along the Spree, a river that runs through the city, and Tiergarten Park, Berlin’s largest and most popular inner-city park. Then stop at a beer garden for lunch (own expense) to experience Berlin as the locals do (full-day tour only).

Other stops on the tour include Museum Island, with its collection of five world-renowned museums; Potsdamer Platz, a public square and traffic intersection in the center of Berlin; Gendarmenmarkt’s German and French cathedrals and much more. 

Throughout the tour, the guide provides ample information about Berlin’s past and present—and maybe even offers some insight into where the city is headed in the future. It’s a great introduction to the city of Berlin and all that it offers its visitors and residents alike.

The tour ends back at Alexanderplatz.

We did a full day ride with Fat Tire Tours and it was an amazing experience! Our knowledgeable guide, Ceri, led us through the city's vibrant streets, sharing fascinating historical insights and hidden gems. Riding past and stopping at iconic landmarks like the Victory Column and the Berlin Wall was truly unforgettable. The lunch place was fun and Ceri brought our group together. The pace was comfortable, and the route allowed us to soak in the local culture. I highly recommend this tour for an engaging and enjoyable way to discover the beauty of Berlin.

Don’t skip this tour!
Marissa_M, Sept 2023
I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this tour is and it’s 100% because we had Franca as our guide! She is so passionate about this history of Berlin she truly memorizes you with the knowledge and backstory of the city. She provides wonderful photos to show further detail of the history and her knowledge with dates of each iconic location it’s absolutely incredible. If only she could have been my history teacher back in my school days! I can not recommend this tour more. When I visit Berlin again in the future, I look forward to attending the tour once more!
Fantastic

Ceri was a great tour guide. Cycling is the way to see all the main attractions and center yourself in Berlin.

Ali_H, Aug 2023
Franca’s incredibly knowledgeable about Berlin's history, culture😍 It was mind-blowing to hear all the fascinating stories Franca shared during the tour. Franca really knows how to make history come alive! 🏰🌆 But that's not all! 🤣 Franca had us laughing throughout the entire tour. It made the experience so enjoyable and lighthearted. It's rare to find someone who can combine education and humor so effortlessly. 🎭🚴‍♀️ I highly recommend joining one of Franca's bike tours if you ever find yourself in Berlin. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! It's a fantastic way to explore the city, learn something new, and have a great time. 🌟

Well worth doing on the first day to get the layout and you can go back later if you wanting a deeper look. It’s a easy ride, gentle pace.
1-2 Days in Berlin
Paulina_M, July 2023
Thor is amazing with the history of Germany and safety of everyone!! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that has a few days in Berlin
Great Experience on the 6 hour City Tour.
Renee_H, July 2023
What a fantastic tour. Nate was our guide and he was super knowledgeable and friendly. We took the 6 hour City Tour and it was the perfect amount of time. We got to see all of the highlights of Berlin and briefly learn about the history of the wall and Germany. We never biked for more than 5-10 minutes at a time which makes the tour very doable for most people. The bikes were in great shape and they were organized from check in and throughout the tour.
Great way to know the inner city
Miguelngel_M, July 2023
Nice and fun ride. Great way to know the main city places. Carlo was a great guide with good humor and plenty of historic facts. Definitely recommended!
6 hours go by real fast when you're having fun!
Jose_G, July 2023
Simon is a wealth of information! He did great at interacting with the entire tour group and keeping everyone engaged. He answered our questions and researched the ones he didn't know the answers to. The bike tour was a great way to see lots of the city in a very short time.

We had a memorable, informative and interesting ride with Carlo. He was very knowledgeable, and this was a great introduction to sights of Berlin.
Great tour in doubt just book don’t over think it.
Sylvie_L, July 2023
I didn’t know what to expect. The tour was fantastic. Carlo was amazing and knew his stuff very well. I am not a rider and the 6 hours went very fast! I was able to do it without any problem and truely enjoy every minutes of it after we really started . I felt secure ( I don’t normally bike so was a bit apprehensive). Highly recommend it and if in doubt book it early as the places goes really fast. I wanted to do another tour and places weee all gone so could not do so for the next 3 days. Hope you will have as much enjoyments in your bike tour then I had .
Exciting

I recently had an amazing bike tour experience with Fat Tire Tours in Berlin. The tour was well planned, with interesting stops, and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. I was impressed by their ability to recount historical events where we stood. I highly recommend this tour company, as you don't need to be an experienced cyclist to enjoy it. Overall, a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend!
