Which one, if…

Which of the Berlin private tours to book, by situation

Worked out from the prices, lengths and ratings above.

    The top 20 walk at $100: three hours, the Brandenburg Gate to Museum Island, 4.6 across 205 reviews, Free cancellation on the listing.

    The private e-rickshaw at $109 for one to five hours, 4.9 across 383 reviews, or the $98 rickshaw with a personal pick-up for one to three hours.

  • You are six or seven and want to stay together

    The seven-seater e-funbike at $178 for one to two hours. It rests on 25 reviews, so read the listing closely.

    The private Reichstag and glass dome tour at $273: an hour and a half from the Brandenburg Gate to the roof terrace, 4.8 across 2,265 reviews.

The honest comparison

Are Berlin private tours worth the extra over shared ones

Private costs several times the shared version. The shared VW T1 Samba bus is $49 for two hours (4.9 across 1,031 reviews); the private one is $329 for the same two hours. The shared Reichstag, dome and government district tour is $18 (4.7 across 21,463 reviews); the private Reichstag tour is $273. The shared Potsdam and Sanssouci tour with entry is $71; the private car is $664. A shared walk of the main sights starts at $20; the private guide is $100.

The ratings do not rise with the price. Two of the ten are rated 4.9, the private e-rickshaw and the private VW bus; the lowest is 4.5 for the Potsdam car, on 36 reviews. Four listings have more than 150 reviews: the Reichstag tour (2,265), the private e-rickshaw (383), the top 20 walk (205) and the VW bus (194). The other six have fewer than 60 each.

So Berlin private tours are worth it when the group is the point: several people sharing one rickshaw, bus or car, with a guide who keeps to your pace. For most private tours in Berlin, the figures on this page do not say whether the price covers one person or the whole party, and that single line on the listing decides the value. Two more listings with private in the name sit on other pages: a treasure hunt for families at $279 and a street food bike tour at $725, on the food page.
