Whether you prefer to explore the city on foot or by car, your guide will take you on a journey through divided Berlin and its lasting legacy. Visit key landmarks and sites related to the division, including the East Side Gallery, the longest remaining part of the Berlin Wall and the world's largest open-air gallery, the Oberbaumbrücke, a former border crossing, and the Palace of Tears museum, another former crossing point and now a museum.
