Possible Group Activities

  • Fernsehturm am Alexanderplatz – best view of the city, but long waiting lines

  • Teufelsberg – the old NSA listening post
  • Berliner Unterwelten – awesome guided tours through old bunkers and other abandoned, mostly underground places
  • Museuminsel - 'Museum Island' is a unique complex of 5 significant national museums on the Spree Island. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
