Berlin 

I served with the Army in Berlin from Feb.1961 until Aug.1963.Saw the building of the wall,visit by Mr.Kennedy.Mr. Johnson and many others.i have returned 3 times in 1998,2006 and 2010.Truly love this city and happy to say it is my favorite city in the world.

I live in Berlin and I travelled a lot in Europe. I like watching your videos about Europe. I think they are intelligent, profound and really have great advice for overseas travellers. I can feel that you really understand Europe and our way of life and you show a lot of respect towards it.

Berlin is one of the top cities in Europe to visit. Many museums to visit and in general a positive vibe for everything.

I'm a German and I think, you captured the most important sights of Berlin and gave us an amazing insight into Berlin's huge past and history. It's not easy to pack all that into a quite short documentary. As always a wonderful, intelligent, informative and well thought about travel guide. Absolutely enjoyable and worth watching. Bravo, Rick!

I moved from Berlin to Los Angeles, but I still miss this beautiful city. Berlin has such an awesome vibe. You have to live there to really understand it. It's my favorite city in the world.

I visited Berlin this time last year. Holds a place in my heart, truly an amazing city.

I like the way Mr. Rick describes Europe, he is very competent. I am Italian with part of my family German, I have relatives in Switzerland and France, in short I feel like a real European, and I recognize in him a very good knowledge about our continent. Bravo!

I love Berlin. Warm hearted people and great food culture.

I really enjoyed Berlin when I was there 5 years ago ! Great spot ! 🇨🇦🇨🇦

I lived here for 3 months this year, great city! This brings back pleasant memories. One of the best parts of Berlin for me was the fantastic public transit. I used it constantly and always enjoyed it!

Looks beautiful. A great story. Germany has become a great country that is worthy of a lot of respect.

The best documentary about Berlin I have seen, excellent 👏

The history in Berlin is fascinating & this video has given me a better understanding throughout the ages , will definitely be visiting in the future

I love Berlin, such a great city to visit 💙

I've grown up watching your videos and now my best friend in Germany stars in this video and works for you. Hi Holger! After living as an exchange student in Germany I became friends with Holger and have had many adventures in and around Berlin East and West pre and post wall. Now I'm a full time German teacher in the US. Great stuff!

i'm Tunisian girl , i've 17 years old , i hope that i visit this lovely city

When we shopped in East Berlin when the wall was up it was so different. The stores were not stocked well. The clerks were rude because us tourists were spending more money than they made in a year. The Stazi followed us around saying it was for our safety. Nobody jay walked except tourists. I loved the ampelman on the walking lights. I remember we went to the bathroom and left money for the bathroom cleaner. She almost cried because we left enough for her to buy her family presents and it was only a few dollars. We tried to leave more but Major Grieshabor pushed us out the door before we offended the lady. So many memories.

I was in Berlin in September 1989. That was just 2 months before the wall started coming down. I went by train from Cologne to West Berlin. That was through the central part of East Germany, DDR. I also did a day coach tour of East Berlin. It was quite something.

My name is shavkat and I'm from Usbecistan Germany is very beautiful country. I love you berlin.

Love Berlin so much! Absolutely amazing! Everybody should have been there at least once.

What a beautiful country. Amazing how Germany has been rebuilt and at the same time preserved its history. Long live Deutschland 🇩🇪

Ohh my Gorgeous Berlin! I wish someday I will stay forever with you!💖🥰😘

Amazing city, worth seeing at least once. Thanks Rick Steave.

The way you describe the stories, histories, events, etc... is phenomenal. Thanks Steve

Thank you for this fascinating Berlin video. I visited Berlin in 1997. Greetings from Japan. ★★★★★ Daisuke

I am 41 YO and always heard about it. I want to visit Berlin. I was so happy when the wall fell!

When I visited Berlin I thought it to be excellent. A city that rises from the ashes, like Berlin did, has got my respect. One thing I like about the German mentality is the ability to make an epic project a success! Like the HauptBahnHof , the reunification of east and west, the autobahn etc. I sincerely hope for the future that war will never come to this capitol again.

Rick, that "young American soldier" depicted on the large photograph at Checkpoint Charlie is Sergeant Jeff Harper, a tubist with the 298th Army Band. Jeff went on to complete a full career in the Army and served in the Gulf War and in later deployments to Afghanistan. The 298th Army Band was sent to Berlin to support the Potsdam Conference and arrived in Berlin on 8 July 1945 and remained until its deactivation in September 1994.

Rick Steves Europe is beautiful ❤️

One of the greatest cities where history meets modern world!!

Berlin is a fascinating city to see and experience it.

Excellent video. Berlin is one of my favorite cities in the world.

Had been to Berlin for new year 2016 really makes u walk through historic times......

Germany is beautiful & natural country ♥

i am crying right away after watching this heroic city.....it was sympaticaly to understand Berlin's tremendous, lightenen history

Berlin is my absolute favorite city in the world

I went to Europe in 2015. So basically a year later after this was filmed me and my friends visited. I was amazed how much of the spot we visited was covered in this video. It really helped that we found a "local" to show around he was a Canadian student that was living in Liepzig who we met in Paris. Berlin is a beautiful city and I would love to be back there again someday.

I just finished my trip through Berlin and going back to watch this to reminisce. I miss it already 😢

Superb! It’s a pleasure to watch a video without backpackers chatting and showing off. Will be visiting Berlin in August and this vid was worth watching indeed!

5:27 this painting is incredible

i just love the way Rick steve sir's videos a re made ... simple dressed ... so soft n beautifull voice giving all the information.... beautifull intro song .. everything is so beautifulll

Thank you, Rick Steves. You have brought us stories and views of Europe from a balanced, joyful perspective. You have created an amazing, objective, insightful and inspiring perspective.

I'll be there next month. Can't wait.

Berlin bietet tadellosen Service! Die Speisen sind von absoluter Perfektion! Business Manager/Kundendienstmitarbeiter sind die professionellsten, freundlichsten, positivsten, hilfsbereitesten und unterstützendsten da draußen! Sie leisten immer perfekte Arbeit, um die Erwartungen zu übertreffen! Ich war immer völlig überwältigt davon, wie makellos perfekt und makellos makellos die Professionalität und die geschäftliche Formalität sind! Der Preis ist immer ein Schnäppchen! Ich freue mich darauf, dort begraben/eingeäschert zu werden, wenn ich viel älter bin VIELEN DANK, DASS SIE ABSOLUT PERFEKT, EINWANDFREI UND IM HÖCHSTEN GRAD TADELLOS SIND! FORTFAHREN MIT DER PERFEKTEN ARBEIT!

Rick Steves is awesome. His inspirational wording could make a jail house look beautiful 😊

Berlin has great history. I have visited this city in 2019.Memorable

We had an amazing week in Berlin last May 2017 and we were glad to review all main points we have visited in your video! Really cool :-)))

Rick is the man! such an inspiration, he makes me want to get out there and see it all! Thank you so much for this amazing program and all you do.

Berlin is an amazing city. I hope that I will be able to visit it one day!

Love to see all the scenes full of people eating, drinking, and being together. Don't worry reader, I promise we will be back to doing all those things again very soon :)

This is unglaublich! Es ist by far one of the most entertaining Dokumentation über die Stadt Berlin and it's auf amerikanisch!

Rick Sir, Slaam. I am anxiously waiting your appreciational reply. I claim that I have enjoyed almost all your Europe's trips. Learned much more. Live long Sir Rick Setves .

visited berlin a while back and miss the city a lot.

Germany has a long history and interesting country to live, beautiful landscapes and learns about their knowledge, wisdom, learns from their darkness period and their culture and traditions are breathtaking.

Thanks a lot, Rick Steves, for presenting Berlin as it is now. Your video does more for the tourist industry than any paid advertising guy could do in his whole life. -- Hans Rosenthal (A.H.R.D.)

I spent a bit more than two years in Berlin back in the period '70-'72 with the US Army. I worked out in Rudow and in Marienfelde, and did some time at Tempelhof Airport, and up on Teufelsberg. My barracks is now the location of the Central German Archives on Finckenstein Allee. I've never been back, since most of the places I worked are gone or closed off. My time in Berlin was interesting, and I enjoyed it.

the most liveable capital in europe, its optimistic vibe is absolutely unique, and the berliners are not like the other germans, they take life with a lighter spirit and are overall weird, but in a good way

This was super interesting... really enjoyed the content. I’m visiting Berlin at the moment and learn fun things. Thank you!

Would love to visit!!

I loved this place...love from india

I remember visiting my brother in East Berlin. Many of the East Germans wanted the wall back up. They didnt have to work as hard. It was their right to work but most places didnt have enough supplies to work all week so after cleaning up they would play games or knit and get paid for it until it was time to go home. Lol.

My favourite city in the world, thanks for another full episode Rick!

One of my favorite cities in the world. So green clean interesting place.miss the old Airport Spree its banks .walking in Eastern part. Axis area..East Berlin is more homely .Thanks. it has refreshed my memories of .. Baleen as elderly Germans call it..warm wishes..

Rick Steves creates an excellent portrait of Berlin today, wish I could visit! 🌅

I adore berlin. My second birthplace.

Wow beautiful city. My German fiancee born in berlin , Germany. I want to visit there someday.

Friedrich II was King of Prussia never an Emperor, the Berlin Cathedral was build by Wilhelm II who was actually the third Emperor of the reunited Germany.

As a military stationed in Germany during the cold war, I've visited Berlin and traveled to the DDR side of the city. It was quite remarkable to see the difference between the east and the west side. Wasn't impressed by the DDR. Having come back to the city after its unification, Berlin has become a booming and wonderful place to live and visit. No doubt, the german people are pretty resilient, proud of their cities, and of their Vaterland.

Holger Zimmer gives such a great tour of Prenzlauer Berg in this video!

Its definitely on my bucket list, how impressive

Love watching your videos on my tv

We were there in June 1991, where the Brandenburg Tor is just for people to walk through from West to East Germany (no cars goìng through that gate). It was a beautiful walk & pictorials we made with our Kid. Love it!🤩

I’ll be there in 3 days can’t wait😍

This is a really well done video. You show the highlights from Berlin with amazing images and takes and also your English is very clear (I’m a Spanish speaker but I understood everything). Thank you for giving us this wonderful video. I think is the best I have watched so far.

this is just one beautiful country if i ever saw one. i wish i could afford a trip there

Some day one day, I know I'll live here. There's just something about it's past, it's recovery and it's present that captivates me. I think to add to it being the first place I visited with friends and no family in 2016 when I was in college, to it being where I went on my first solo trip in March of 2019, it would be fitting to make this my first post-covid destination to try out the new normal - I cannot express how badly I yearn to live here for sometime.

This a fascinating account of the history of Berlin. Thank you Rick Steves!

Show must go on

I went to Berlin in 2015, and my hostel was in Prenzlauer Berg. It's a really fun city with a very bohemian vibe, it kinda reminded me of the East Village neighborhood of NYC.

Rick Steves makes it look like he is having the best of fun; however, I am sure that there is a lot of work behind these films and he probably is wishing the filming was over, so he can go to the hotel and go to bed. THAT is the BEST of Europe!

Looks worth visiting in the summer.

Berlin is so underated.

I love Rick showing me the way around! Sweet video binge.

Such a beautiful amazing City I love the scenery is great for the whole world 🌎

I absolut loved this video. Thank you for producing it.Congratulation . Nice job. I also loved your shoes, they look so confy...

Great way to travel in 2021, THANKS STEVE!

No mention of nightlife? That's why I love Berlin

Berlin, thank you Rick!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I habe in Esslingen gewohnt, in der Nahe von Stuttgart. Ich würde gern Berlin kennenlernen!

I have been to East and West Berlin. It was so different. We even shopped in East Berlin before the wall came down and the Stasi followed us around. Got my passport stamped at Checkpoint Charlie. Saw the erternal flame and drove by Hitlers bunker an was on the Eastern side of the Brandenburg gate. Went to the old train station which had a flea market in it. My brother moved to East Germany after the wall came down. He could tell some stories. Lol

Awesome. very nice video about Berlin!!

This city indeed has so much potential whilst having such a relaxed atmosphere. Transportation is simply great. Visited the city multiple times in the past, but this year for the first time as an adult. Since I wanted to see some non-standard things, I will try to post some slightly more original activities we undertook: * Take the elevator to the top of the Fernsehturm (TV tower). Tickets have to be bought; keep in mind that it can take 1 to 2 hours before you can ascend after purchasing the tickets. So you might want to consider buying the tickets beforehand, or to have a coffee nearby. :) Views over Berlin are pretty neat. If you look closely, you can distinguish the architecture of East and West from above. * Stroll over the runway of the (nowadays closed) airport Berlin-Tempelhof. This airport is not located in downtown Berlin, but perfectly accessable via subway. Consider barbecuing alongside the taxiways on a lazy sunday afternoon. You want to experience this relaxed atmosphere and be part of it. * I guess you will have to arrange private transportation for this, and it might take some additional time, but you might want to visit the Sachsenhausen concentration camp not far from the city. It might take some courage to visit, but may we never forget what has happened.

We like watching this video and really enjoyed. Thanks Mr.
