We recommend this experience with Shadi. He is right on time, speaks English very well, his friendly and helpful.

Private car tour with Shadi
We strongly recommend you hire Shadi for your private tour of Berlin. He went above and beyond to find a cemetery which had closed in the late 19th century enabling us to honor our relatives. His commitment is to you, his client. He will ensure you see all the notable but also the less known high points in Berlin. He is also available to take you to Potsdam & Sans Souci. This was the highlight of our visit and money well spent.

Beautiful day in Potsdam
We enjoyed our day with Shadi. Potsdam is lovely with many beautiful places to see. We were, however, disappointed that we did not get to see inside Sanssouci Palace. That was a priority for me, but the timing of the ticket didn’t work with the timing of the tour. There wasn’t the flexibility in the day and tickets aren’t purchased ahead. But, as Shadi reminded us, Potsdam requires more than 6 hours. It is well worth the time!

Potsdam private walking tour
Shadi was very friendly and enjoyable to spend time with. He knows the employees at the castles very well and they go out of their way to accommodate him. It was a nice tour and well worth the cost for a private tour.

Adapted tour to mobility issues
Excellent private tour adapted to accommodate my mobility issues. Shadi is very knowledgeable and personable and showed us quite a lot during the time we were in Potsdam. We didn't go into the Neues Palais, but we spent more time seeing other things, and that was fine. We had a choice of lunch places and chose Italian, which was good. Shadi picked us up on time at our accommodation and returned us there as scheduled. Highly recommended.

Informative, Flexible & Fun
This tour gave a wonderful insight into 3 significant moments in history - Frederick the Great and his building of Germany, the Potsdam Conference which course for Germany following WWII and the bridge of Spies which was a significant part of the Cold War in Germany. All this was done with good lively conversation between the venues.

Wonderful, personable, and flexible tour
I cannot recommend this tour more! Shadi is kind and considerate. He was flexible and allowed us to explain what we were interested to see and adapted his itinerary. As a result, we saw much more than we knew we should! Also, as a personal touch, Shadi went out of his way to help me find a specific type of cake I wanted. This is a great tour!

Amazing Tour of historical sites at Potsdam
We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide (Shadi) who was very helpful and well-informed. He showed us some amazing places such as Cecilienhof palace and Sanssouci palace, which were both very impressive and significant in history (especially for those who are interested in the second world war, Cecilienhof Palace is a must-see). He gave us enough time to explore these places and then he took us to the charming Potsdam old town, where we enjoyed a delicious lunch at a great Italian restaurant. He also fulfilled our request and took us to the bridge where the US and Soviet used to exchange prisoners during the cold war, as shown in the bridge of spies' movie. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Berlin.
