Berlin German Christmas Markets School Trips & Tours

Our City Representative, or one of her team, will take your group on a half-day tour of the key sights and provide a first-hand perspective of Berlin’s history and how life has changed for the city’s residents.

• Berlin Wall: Pupils will see how East and West Berlin were divided for 28 years. Potsdamer Platz and the East Side Gallery are two of the remaining areas where it is still accessible to see a section of the wall.
• The Reichstag: This impressive building, perhaps most recognisable due to its impressive glass dome, re-opened as the new seat of Federal Parliament in 1999. Here, pupils can learn about the building’s turbulent 114-year history.
• The Brandenburg Gate: Berlin’s only remaining city gate and a symbol of unified Germany. The dramatic Quadriga that sits on top has a history as eventful as the city’s.

Built for the 1936 Olympics, this is an excellent example of Nazi architecture. This is where the black American athlete, Jesse Owens, won four gold medals, supposedly infuriating Hitler because of his race.

Run by our City Representative, Tatjana (or a member of her team), this language quiz activity takes in the major sites of Alexanderplatz with a big bag of Gummibärchen for the winning team! 

The large indoor market in the centre of the city is an ideal place to put language skills to the test and pick up a bargain or two.

A fabulous museum that shows over 800 years of Berlin’s history, through a number of interactive exhibitions and sound and light shows. The exhibition text, and guided bomb-shelter tour, are available in both English and German.

Get on board and experience the heart of Berlin from the water. A great way to see the city! 

Located at the very heart of the city on the Alexanderplatz, the Berlin TV tower is part of German history: in the sixties the East German government had the TV tower built to demonstrate the strength and efficiency of the socialist party system. Today the tower, Berlin’s highest structure, shapes the skyline of the German capital city and has fantastic views - and serves as a landmark of the reunited Germany. Your group can pinpoint the many landmarks and attend the free exhibition.

Here, your pupils can give free reign to their chocolate notions and manufacture their very own chocolate creations – all the way from ingredient selection to package design.
