Fat Tire Bike Tour- Berlin

There were many ways to see this city but we decided (because Berlin is flat and it was recommeneded by a friend) to take the Fat Tire Bike tour. We figured this was the best way to see a lot while keeping the kids engaged and it worked. We did not hear "my feet hurt" or "another train?" the whole trip (or at least not till the next day). We rode for about 4 hours but never more than about 15 mins at at time. We saw more sights than I can list here but here are the highlights. The extra Bike was for our tour guide Francis.

Red Town Hall
Marx and Engels Platz

Brandenburg Gate


Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe


Checkpoint Charlie

Reichstag (Parliament House)
Bebelplatz (site of the Nazi book burning)
Berlin Wall
Russian War Memorial
Museum Island
....just to name a few... we saw so much more!
