Enjoy a private 6-hour tour from Berlin exploring the unique town of Potsdam where the palaces and parks were designated a World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1990. Not only is the city incredibly picturesque with its manicured gardens, many palaces, statues and water fountains dotted over hundreds of green acres, it is also brimming with an equally fascinating history.
Pickup included
Stroll around the Dutch Quarter with your private guide and see an ensemble of red-brick buildings that is unique in Europe, built by the infamous 'Soldier King', Frederick William I, in the middle of the 18th century to accommodate Potsdam's new community of Dutch artisans.
See the stunning Sanssouci Palace, favorite residence of Frederick the Great, which is set in beautiful parkland scattered with temples, churches and follies.
After walking over the Glienicke 'spy swap' Bridge, visit Cecilienhof, the manorial residence of Germany's last Crown Prince, used to host the Potsdam Conference in 1945. Your private guide will describe the discussions that took place between Churchill, Truman and Stalin, which were to seal the fate of Cold War Europe for the next half century.
