This is a great option for those in Berlin before or after your cruise out of Warnemunde. Your pass is good for the day, you'll be able to hear all about the sights in a variety of languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Russian, Chinese, Japanese) through your headset, not to mention you'll receive a map showing all the stops and what you can find there. Ride the whole route and make your selection later, or plan ahead and hop off as soon as your spot comes up. There are 2 different options for you to choose from - a 24-hour pass or a 2 day pass both good for all of the routes. For those who are stopping in Warnemunde for the day, transportation to Berlin is not included. You may book this excursion up to 3 months prior to your excursion date.

There are 2 different routes to explore, each with their own great selections. For those who've never been to Berlin before, the Traditional Route is the best selection. It will take you to the most popular tourist sites. See the Brandenburg Gate, KaDeWe, Checkpoint Charlie and TV Towers. You will have the opportunity to explore the heart of the city. Buses run approximately every 15-30 minutes. Hop off where you want and then just hop back on the next bus.

If you are into history, The Wall & Lifestyle Route is the one for you. See the Berlin Wall Memorial, see an original WWII bunker, discover Prenzlauer Berg, a neighborhood with dozens of restaurants, cafes, and galleries. See the East Side Gallery, the longest preserved part of the Berlin Wall.

Finally, been in Berlin before? Then The Western Route will show you some of the more hidden gems that most don't get to see. You will drive through some of the most exclusive areas and down the Ku'damm. See Charlottenburg Palace, ICC, and Radio Tower or maybe even the famous Olympic Stadium. Climb the Bell Tower in the Olympic Park to get an amazing view of Berlin. The only difficulty is selecting a route to start from. But, when you hop off to explore and want to hop back on, the wait time should be minimal since the buses run all day. Entrance fees to the attractions are not included.

Whichever route, or combination, you choose, you are sure to enjoy your visit to Berlin. Especially with the views available from the iconic double-decker sightseeing bus.
