About

One city, one tour

With the Hop-on Hop-off tour you will be able to discover this unique city at your own pace without worrying about transportation. You choose where to hop-on and where to hop-off at any of the 18 stops in the city or take the full 2.5 hour bus tour before deciding what you want to see up close.

This tour will take you from West Berlin to East Berlin and back again. You’ll see all the historic neighbourhoods of the German capital and once you see something interesting, you can hop-off and explore the sight. From the Brandenburg Gate to Potsdamer Platz and from the Berlin Zoo to Checkpoint Charlie, you’ll see it all.

The spy capital of the world

Knowledge has always been power, which is why spies have been around as long as human civilisation itself. In ancient Egypt spies were known as “the eyes of the Pharoah”, in Persia King Cyrus referred to them as his many “eyes and ears”, and even General Sun Tzu devoted a whole chapter to spies in his famous “The Art of War”.

During the Cold War, Berlin was where East met West, no where else did the Soviet and NATO powers get into such close contact with each other. This is why Berlin is the best place to learn all about the world of spies. You can visit the German Spy Museum on the former border, the very death strip of the Berlin Wall.

Better than expected!

Amazing place and definitely worth a visit whilst in Berlin. Heaps of interactive opportunities and for a topic I’m not too interested in, the museum certainly had my attention. Very much enjoyed the visit. The venue is very modern with everything in German and English. The staff are very friendly too. There is also a shop full of all sorts of spy-related stuff to it. And if you’re in need of a drink or bite to eat after all that espionage, there’s a fantastic, very well priced cafe too. Perfect!!

Really good fun!

This was surprisingly good. The interactive displays were great fun, particularly the password hack, laser maze and fake interview. Highly recommend!

Helped me not get hacked! 😂

It was a really fascinating museum and had a lot of great info. It shows disguises, costumes, models of spies, code cracking machines and lots more. There was a device where you typed one of your computer passwords in and it said how long it would take for a hacker to figure it out. Mine didn’t get a very good score 😂 and have changed my password since then so thanks spy museum!!! There is a really interesting James Bond display with lots of good information about James Bond movies and things you didn’t notice tips etc. have not watched any James Bond movies before but want to now! 🕵️ All in all really great place and if I go to Berlin again 100% visiting it!

Wonderful experience!

Visiting the museum was a fascinating experience! From ancient artifacts to cultural exhibits, every section told a meaningful story. The layout was easy to follow, and each display was full of detail and history. It felt like stepping back in time, learning so much while still enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. A great way to understand the roots, traditions, and stories behind the places we explore. Definitely worth the visit!”

mmmmhh

Fascinating museum on the history of spying - definitely worth a visit

I have to say I was not sure about going to this Museum as I had read some reviews saying it was disappointing AND I thought it might have too many kids. I have to say I thought this museum was fascinating and could have spent more time there. I traces the history of spying from Egyptian times to the present day. It has lots of displays including all the ways secret cameras were hidden - in matchboxes, bags etc and they have these on display. There were some activities for kids, but I skipped them. When I went it was about 4.30pm, so maybe that helped. I do recommend this museum - it's a bit of fun and a change up from the general history of Berlin.

Great museum for whole family

This is great fun. In depth interviews with spies and loads of spy artefacts for adults to geek over, and loads of hands on (or hands and knees under lasers) challenges for kids. Highly recommend

Fun at the Spy Museum

We spend two fun and informative hours there. My wife reads just about everything (non-fiction & fiction) regarding spies and their organizations, so this was extra fun for her, but I really enjoyed it as well. All information boards and interactive engagements were in at least German & English. I did see some Dutch and French language, but English is the main secondary one.

Very nice visit here

The museum entrance was very cool and after the gate they tell you the history of spys.There are also some minigames.After you go to the second floor there are lots of things to learn and play.My favorite part is the laser maze which you have to choose a mode then complete the obstacles and stop the bomb(if you touch a laser the bomb explodes).The shop had lots of gadgets and pens etc.

Outstanding

Absolutely wonderful! This was super informative but required much reading so it’s more suited to advanced readers, not little children. I’d recommend this museum if you’re interested in history and how spying is carried out.

Lots of info but long wait times

The thing we enjoyed most about the museum were any interactive "missions". There were a lot of walls of text we weren't particularly interested in - if you are actually interested in the history of spying, there would be lots to learn. Even at a quiet time (midday on a Wednesday), we spent almost all our time waiting for others to finish interacting with things so we could have a go - especially the lie detector that we waited about 20 minutes for. The laser game was particularly fun and quick enough that you didn't have to queue for long at all.

A Fascinating Experience at the German Spy Museum!

I visited the German Spy Museum, and it was an incredible experience! The museum is packed with interactive exhibits, historical artifacts, and fascinating stories about espionage. From learning about famous spies to decoding secret messages, every part of the visit was engaging. One of the highlights was the laser maze, which was so much fun to try! There were also many hands-on activities that made the experience even more exciting. The museum does a great job of blending history with entertainment, making it enjoyable for both adults and kids. Overall, it’s a must-visit for anyone interested in spies, technology, and history. Highly recommended!

Fun and informative

Great fun museum as a mix up with the more serious ones in Berlin. Teens loved all activities- especially the laser room. Lots of information that was really interesting. We booked for 10.45 time slot and was busy on way in but no problem then with having a go at all interactive elements- only short wait for laser room so kids had a couple of go’s. Imagine it gets much busier later on.

It’s a spy museum

This is a great look back at all the James Bond gadgets for the Cold War, real cameras in shoes hand bags and secret messages, Wouldn’t go during the school holidays, to many kids, book on line to hold a date and time , will also save a 10’er. There are lockers for a euro, just so you are not karting all your stuff around, The coffee shop at the end is a welcome sit down.

CBrussels

Fun and informative

It is cheaper to buy tickets in the internet and if you are interested in German history, you can also buy a cheaper combination ticket (Spy and Deutschland museum). the Deutschland museum which is just located next door. They do have a time slot and when I was there, it was very crowded so I would recommend you to buy the tickets on line. The museum is quite big with lots of interactive exhibitions and covers a lot of things about spy. It is good fun and educational. I spend 2 hours there and it is a museum for adults and children alike. Highly recommended.

Good museum for all ages

This museum is good for all ages. Very interesting artifacts, actually "spy" equipment. I particularly enjoyed seeing the Enigma machine. If you have seen the film "the imitation game" this is the machine that features in the story of the film. Very good section of James Bond film props from the movies. It's not a large museum, we was in there an hour. Have to pre book tickets to a time slot online. You scan bar code on e tickets, then go into a security check scanner before allowing entry. The shop at the end had a good selection of spy toys to take home, keep the kids entertained for hours. And not too expensive.

Interactive Spy Museum

Amazing experience! I was late because I got lost (we were directed by google maps to a nonexistent bus station) and the lady at the reception was so understanding so I was able to still get in (thank you so much!) There are a lot of activities while you learn about espionage.. I just wish I had more time (had to cram my tour within 2 days). Saw a family enjoy the whole thing, I also wish I had my family with me to enjoy this (no budget yet haha!) definitely will come back! 👏✅ 5⭐

We had fun. Personally I was more interested in people's stories than all the hardware on display. Worth a visit if you've got time to spare in Berlin. Advanced booking recommended.

Top 10 attraction

The layout is well designed. From ancient pottery to Enigma to passwords to encryption the history of espionage is shown From gun that killed Archduke Ferdinand to umbrella that killed Georgi Markov Grom codes on ancient ceramics to to Enigma passwords and ultimate encryption It’s all here in format that patents and children will find absorbing

Plenty to engage the mind

Enjoyed visiting this museum, plenty to do and plenty to read. Enjoyed the Lazer beam course which just added to the fun. Allow at least a couple of hours especially if you read and try your hand at everything.

Great Museum

Very detailed museum, with lots of interaction. Laser room was the best bit, and more difficult than you think! We went in a Monday and booked in advance, but this probably wasn’t necessary as it wasn’t busy. However I can imagine it gets busy on weekends.

4 hours of fun and information

Brilliant piece of spy history. Lots of exhibits and information videos. With some great interaction as well. We spent 4 hours going around the site and probably still missed some stuff.

Fun. A little busy.

Good visit. A fun look at the history of espionage. It was getting a bit busy when we visited so we had to wait a little for some exhibits but not too bad. I’d say time a visit carefully as this will be better when quiet. We enjoyed.

Fun for field trips and families

I am a school teacher who has bloodied the Spy Museum twice: once on a forms trip with high-schoolers, then today with my own family. The interactive and unique museum was a hit with everyone. We spent about 2.5 hours.

Enjoyable couple of hours!

My family and I spent a couple of hours here and enjoyed ourselves. The museum is modern and informative. There are some fun interactive activities mixed in with lots of information. A decent way to spend a couple of hours in Berlin.

Great look at how ‘big brother’ invades our lives

My wife and I toured the Espionage Museum while visiting Berlin recently. This place was incredible! I really loved seeing the advancements in ‘spy tech’ and many real examples of tools used to spy on others and a country’s own citizens. Some of the hands on stations were really interesting…code breaking and finding listening devices in a room were fun. Technology has screamed forward from the examples we saw in the museum and we carry the most invasive and intrusive devices in the form of our mobile phones. They are listening…

Loads to see and do at the German Spy Museum

The museum was just amazing. There was so much to do and learn. Our 16 year old granddaughter loved it too. It was interactive and the explanations were in English as well as German. You need at least 2 hours. We would have spent longer but the cafe was outside.

Reliable private car service

My wife and I used the Daytrip service multiple times during our vacation in Germany. The drivers or dispatcher were in touch with us about the pickup time with real-time tracking of the driver's location. We greatly appreciated that they arranged for a taxi to get us to the airport after the scheduled driver had a medical emergency. We will certainly use their service again during future trips.

Do not go on the weekend, it was PACKED. Still able to see most of the exhibits and some of the interactive pieces but was very difficult with the amount of people.

Great way to spend 2 hours

Lots of interesting info on espionage right from ancient times up to wireless gadgets, via the Cold War and recent scandals. Many of the exhibits were interactive and good fun for kids and adults. We marvelled that items we’d seen James Bond use on film were actually real things we could see with our own eyes!

Great museum, good fun and lots to interest everyone

This is a really fun museum. We found it slightly by accident and then looked it up, read a few reviews and decided to visit on the last morning of our trip. Very pleased we did! It's a really interesting tour through espionage in general and Berlin's history of it, with some fun things like lie detectors and the laser maze too. Quite a lot of interactive exhibits too.

The spy museum is amazing! It is a fascinating dive into the world of espionage and there is a wonderful mix of educational exhibits and hands on activities to keep kids engaged and entertained. My son especially loved the laser maze. It's well worth a visit.

Good couple of hours entertainment and fun.

Great if your interested in the black arts of spy craft and esponaige - has a decent 007 M Bond - James Bond if you don't mind exhibit. Also some fun things for kids to do including a laser maize. Plenty of historical and adult info and items to keep most interested. Worth a visit in easy to find location.

Lots to learn and do

Just sitting in the cafe after having our mind blown by the array of items on display. We spent nearly two hours going around the various displays and still feel like we rushed it - there is a lot to read and interact with as well as look at the various displays. Definitely worth a visit

Worth going to

A well balanced look at how spying happened throughout the ages, and in the Cold War particularly. Both sides contrasted!

Perfect for adults, families even with small children.

Good little museum. Plenty to see on an adult level but also loads for small children to get hands on with. Covers the art of espionage through the ages, it's use in the wars and cold war era and in TV and film.

U8732FGjohnw

Absolutely amazing!

An absolutely amazing place to visit for all ages. We have 3 children ranging from 9-14 and we could have all stayed there the whole day. Nearly everything has an interactive element, whether that is cracking a code to writing in morse code, through to the laser challenge. In addition to the interactive elements there are lots of stories of spies and the methods they used throughout history up to today. We had to drag the children (and my wife me) away in the end. With children this is a must do if you’re visiting Berlin.

Excellent

Went to you yesterday. Got tickets but had to wait an hour as staggered access. Well worth the weight! Spent a couple of hours in here but could’ve stayed an awful lot longer. Even though it was August it was air-conditioned and felt quite spacious! Really good really interesting and would love to go back.

Worth further investigation

The German Spy Museum does a good job of catering both to children and to adults interested in the history and gadgetry of espionage or who, like Brosnan's James Bond, "never grew up". You can search for microdots on the cover of Playboy, search a desk for bugs, attempt to navigate a cinematic laser maze, reassemble shredded documents, try your hand at safecracking, and so on. There's some great information about 20th century spycraft and also a spectacular collection of now-obsolete spy equipment – some replicas, many originals – and a few props from James Bond movies. I was a little disappointed by the lack of exploding pens in the gift shop, but that was also full of stuff that I would have adored as a kid. 007/10.

dorischristina2015

Great interactive experience- definitely worth the money!

Great interactive museum with a lot of information on espionage since the early ages. Great and detailed overview of the times of the cold war and about different spies and counter spying. You can also take quizzes, take photos pretending to be a spy, do a Laser Parcours and much more. In the end the museum takes you into challenges of today’s cyber world. It is really worth the money.!

Hop On Berlin

A great way to see all the sights of Berlin, the tour is nearly 3 hours long in one lap. There is an audio guide in several languages. You do get really close to all of the attractions. The bus driver was friendly and welcoming.

Great service, friendly staff and great views! Would recommend the Hop on Hop off bus as a great way to see Berlin. Be prepared though, the entire route is @2.5 hours long!

Balham1066

Brilliant.

Okay … I have just read the recent reviews and it would seem some individual(s) rated the Sight Seeing of Berlin (Hop On, Hop Off) as not particularly great. However, I have found my tour brilliant. Whilst the tour bus, was not particularly crowded. Claudes, the bus/tour guide, was exceptionally brilliant, so knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour. Appreciated his storytelling of why the Berlin Wall was built,; explained the Berlin Wall Museum and the drawings etc … we stopped twice for a 15 minute break. Claudes, spoke about the history of Berlin and it’s check points. It’s a shame, you can’t ask for Claudes, for your tour guide … he was & is brilliant 😊

Excellent tour guide

We purchased a ticket that gave us a 48 hour pass with guided walking tour and free curry wurst. The directions to activate your ticket were not great, nor was information on redeeming your curry wurst. However the actual tour bus was great. The first driver we had was entirely unhelpful but the other ones were excellent. Also the sellers and agents around the mail stops were super helpful. The English guy we had for the walking tour was hilarious and very knowledgeable. He really did an excellent job.

a good way to see Berlin

I would have been unable to experience visiting all of these sights without using this bus service......and just like in London, another bus will soon arrive, after you visit a given stop.

Great tour and relaxing. Easy on and off👍

The bus ride was a great way to see the city and listen to someone tell us about all the highlights of what we were seeing. Super easy to hop on and off. The boat tour was nice but we didn’t understand anything said since it wasn’t in English…but it was still a nice ride.

A good overview of Berlin

Read a few poor reviews but have to say ours was a good experience. Talked to a few of the ticket sellers as they lower their prices as you move around. We were happy with the price we paid. We enjoyed the banter on the commentary and have little to complain about. This company pairs up with another so there's more choice of buses at each stop. There is a negative in that there are no *bus stops* so you have to remember where you got off. We bought tickets and boarded where there were ticket sellers. That helped, but they're not at every stop. One other gripe was other tourists chatting loudly so we couldn't hear the commentary. Overall, a great way to see the highlights of Berlin.

Handy tour bus quite frequent

Tour bus handy - right outside our hotel at East Side Gallery stop! Bought 2 day ticket for extra 4 euros which was worth it. They let you use red hop on and hop off bus as well as the red city sightseeing bus so both were quite frequent. Did full tour took 2 hours but bus does stop as major sights for 15 mins during that time ie Brandenburg gate and also at stop 1. Detailed recorded tour although sometimes it continues even when you are at red lights so unsure what its referring too but still informative. There was a boat ride but we couldnt find where to pick this up from so ended up doing a separate boat tour on Reederei Hadynski which was very good. Bus was clean and soft drinks available but you need cash as card machine didnt work.

A great way to see central Berlin

I traveled to Berlin for a day trip with my son and therefore needed the ability to see as many of the sights in a short space of time and this tour ticked the box. We booked the combined tour and one hour river trip in advance and when we got to the central station it was really easy to find the bus stop, number 19 on the list. As one can imagine the bus was quite full but we managed to get upstairs seats and had great 360 views. A downside, not worth marking down was that the initial Jack for the headphones was as faulty but the next one did. The circular tour takes 2.5 hours if one stays on but the clue is in the name so we hopped off for the river cruise before getting back on at a different stop to get back to the station. The guided information adds humour to interesting facts. Well worth using to understand Berlin

Perfect for a 3- day trip to Berlin

A great way to see the sights over two days - the 2 day ticket is good value. One downside - the really cheesy audio track. Very informative, though.

Fahrt mit Klaus - absolute Empfehlung!

Ich selbst habe einige Jahre in Berlin gewohnt und habe noch Verwandtschaft dort. Wenn ich nun zu Besuch in Berlin bin und Rundfahrten buche, wähle ich City Sightseeing Berlin quasi aus Gewohnheit. Dieses Mal jedoch bin ich so dermaßen überzeugt, dass ich sogar eine Bewertung schreibe. Das liegt an Klaus. Klaus ist der Busfahrer, der uns an unserem zweiten Tag durch Berlin begleitete. Wir hatten das 48-Stunden Ticket gebucht, da wir damit rechneten, dass am 03.10. bestimmt einige Demos und Kundgebungen unsere Rundfahrt "stören" würden (was dann ja auch so war). Wir stiegen zu Klaus in den Bus und bekamen eine very special Rundfahrt. Das Wetter war kühl und windig, so dass das Dach eh geschlossen war. Also blieben wir im unteren Bereich. Klaus ist das komplette Gegenteil vom kaltschnäuzigen Berliner. Er begrüßte jeden neuen Fahrgast sehr persönlich (obwohl er die Menschen ja noch gar nicht kannte!) und souverän in diversen Sprachen. Jeder fühlte sich willkommen. Falls jemand filmbegeistert ist: wartet auf Klaus. Er weiß genau, welche Filme wo in Berlin gedreht wurden (aktuell: Tribute von Panem). Wir haben auf dieser Tour so viel mitbekommen, was nicht in den Kopfhörer-Ansagen erwähnt wurde! Meine (19jährige) Tochter hat angekündigt, dass sie auf ihrer nächsten Berlin-Reise nur noch mit Klaus fahren möchte. Wir haben tatsächlich einige Stopps, an denen wir eigentlich aussteigen wollten, ausgelassen, um weiter mit Klaus zu fahren (und haben sie dann später erlaufen). Achtet darauf, in welchen Bus Ihr einsteigt: die Hör-Texte des Kooperationspartners sind zwar natürlich ebenfalls informativ, aber sehr nüchtern und unpersönlich. Vielleicht kann man das mal anpassen? Wir stiegen um 17h in einen Bus am KaDeWe ein, dessen Fahrer uns dann mitteilte, dass er nur noch bis zum Potsdamer Platz führe (zwei Stationen). Bisschen irreführend, wenn es heißt, dass der nächste Bus um 17h kommt - wir waren davon ausgegangen, dass der Bus dann dann noch einmal die komplette Runde fahren würde. Zumal andere Unternehmer offenbar länger unterwegs waren (wir haben die Busse der Konkurrenz deutlich später noch gesehen). Trotzdem und ganz deutlich: absolute Empfehlung für die Tour mit Klaus. Für den Kooperationspartner spreche ich ganz deutlich keine Empfehlung aus. Es kam kein Hinweis, dass die gebuchte Strecke gesperrt war und ein Hinweis auf möglicherweise auf möglicherwiese veränderte Routen fehlte ebenfalls. Auf einem Teilstück waren auch die Kopfhörerbuchsen offenbar kaputt. Auf unseren Hinweis erhielten wir vom Fahrer (nicht Klaus!) ein eher unfreundliches: "Det passiert". Klaus ist für uns ein absolutes Argument für diese Tour mit diesem Unternehmen. Ich weiß jetzt, warum es in Berlin überall diese überirdischen Rohre gibt (die ich bisher für misslungene Kunstinstallationen gehalten habe) und ich weiß, wo es den Schacht gibt, der der Stasi damals die Spionage des Alex ermöglichte. Und: Klaus, falls du das liest: natürlich waren wir noch in den Hackeschen Höfen! Liebe Grüße von Natalie (die mit dem interessanten Pulli) und der Mutter!

Absolut empfehlenswert

Von Herzen ein grosses Dankeschön für diese Möglichkeit. Meine Schwiegermutter (85) war fasziniert von der Stadt und kaum aus dem Staunen nicht mehr heraus, wie gross Berlin doch ist. Für eine 85jährige ein absolutes Highlight, da sie nichts erlaufen musste und die Stadt sitzend geniessen konnte. Die Streckenführung war super. Die Stopps in der Stadt gut gewählöt und zentral. Die Häufigkeit der Busfrequenz war sehr praktisch und mit max 20min hat man stets Zeit, sich kurz die Beine zu vertreten und/oder ein Getränk zu kaufen. Der Bus war super sauber, das Personal professionell und super freundlich. Der Service während der Fahrt informativ und excellent. Unser Platz oben und in der Sonne war perfekt. Eine absolute Empfehlung!

Preis-Leistung ok.

Wir haben die negativen Bewertungen gelesen und können sie in keinster Weise nachvollziehen. Der Fahrer war nett und freundlich, konnte auch Fragen beantworten. Für die mangelnden Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kiel kann der Fahrer sicht nichts, im Gegenteil. Er hat versucht alles positiv zu erzählen.
