Rick Steves, America's most respected authority on European travel, writes European travel guidebooks, and hosts travel shows on public television and public radio.
I live in Berlin and I travelled a lot in Europe. I like watching your videos about Europe. I think they are intelligent, profound and really have great advice for overseas travellers. I can feel that you really understand Europe and our way of life and you show a lot of respect towards it.
Please go to us, to Kyiv, Ukraine! And recommend you Lviv, Odessa, Kharkiv too.
Rick will only discuss areas where he has spent a lot of time, enough to understand the places in their current moment. I live in Seattle, about 2km from his office. He gave us critical help when we made cannabis legal. He has started to explore Eastern Europe, but won't be writing or talking about it for a few more years.
Guys ,Does anyone have a rent room for 1 year or more ?...I ll come to Berlin for Master of IT course ,
I am a new comer in Berlin so does someone knows about Gardens and Abandon areas in Berlin ?
It is even interesting for Europeans like us. If you want to have just a shortcut, a 20 minutes impression of a place or region, these videos are great.
I served with the Army in Berlin from Feb.1961 until Aug.1963.Saw the building of the wall,visit by Mr.Kennedy.Mr. Johnson and many others.i have returned 3 times in 1998,2006 and 2010.Truly love this city and happy to say it is my favorite city in the world.
James Carpenter How old are you sir
Mr Carpenter: Nice words!
Are you serious? I served in the United States Army in West Berlin.
i presume u checked out the museum now at check point charlie? there are also great underground tours that range from inside the one remaining FLAK tower to the cold war bunkers. my GF n i had a great time with the underground tours, n my dad n i were fascinated by the still half standing FLAK tower. outside of that, there are countless museums to visit which my parents(now living in Berlin) wonna take me to

I'm a German and I think, you captured the most important sights of Berlin and gave us an amazing insight into Berlin's huge past and history. It's not easy to pack all that into a quite short documentary. As always a wonderful, intelligent, informative and well thought about travel guide. Absolutely enjoyable and worth watching. Bravo, Rick!
Impressive Erection
I moved from Berlin to Los Angeles, but I still miss this beautiful city. Berlin has such an awesome vibe. You have to live there to really understand it. It's my favorite city in the world.
Why from this magical place to a dump like LA?
Because of my company. But L.A. is actually doing pretty well. They built public transportation and Downtown will double its skyscraper until 2020 (because of foreign investments) Still... Berlin is on another level you are right about that.
ich liebe Berlin
i want to travel the all world
I haven't lived there, I actually just spent a day there, but it's still my favourite city of all time. So many beautiful buildings and such a vibrant, active and social city. Very affordable prices as well!
Berlin is one of the top cities in Europe to visit. Many museums to visit and in general a positive vibe for everything.
I visited Berlin this time last year. Holds a place in my heart, truly an amazing city.
It's a love that will never ends 😍
The whole of Europe is so beautiful.
Me too! I am waiting to go back, this time for good.
München wäre mir aber lieber
ok ok
I like the way Mr. Rick describes Europe, he is very competent. I am Italian with part of my family German, I have relatives in Switzerland and France, in short I feel like a real European, and I recognize in him a very good knowledge about our continent. Bravo!
Rick, that "young American soldier" depicted on the large photograph at Checkpoint Charlie is Sergeant Jeff Harper, a tubist with the 298th Army Band. Jeff went on to complete a full career in the Army and served in the Gulf War and in later deployments to Afghanistan.
The 298th Army Band was sent to Berlin to support the Potsdam Conference and arrived in Berlin on 8 July 1945 and remained until its deactivation in September 1994.

I really enjoyed Berlin when I was there 5 years ago ! Great spot ! 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Looks beautiful. A great story. Germany has become a great country that is worthy of a lot of respect.
It was great ever since the german empire ^^
Das Leben ist ein Wurfelspiel.
Germany is great because it remember’s when it wasn’t
Deutschland wurde ein großes Land, weil sie die Zeit erinnert, wann sie nicht war.
There was only about 20 years when it wasn’t great, and 50 when half of it was meh, but remember the Germanic peoples conquered the Roman domains and most people of Western European/ Latin American descent have some German blood, and for the Latinos I don’t mean the nazis who escaped there I mean the Spanish in their blood who themselves had German in theirs
Germany has always been great ...
I lived here for 3 months this year, great city! This brings back pleasant memories. One of the best parts of Berlin for me was the fantastic public transit. I used it constantly and always enjoyed it!
That's called a vacation
I love Berlin, such a great city to visit 💙
I've grown up watching your videos and now my best friend in Germany stars in this video and works for you. Hi Holger! After living as an exchange student in Germany I became friends with Holger and have had many adventures in and around Berlin East and West pre and post wall. Now I'm a full time German teacher in the US. Great stuff!
Had been to Berlin for new year 2016 really makes u walk through historic times......
i'm Tunisian girl , i've 17 years old , i hope that i visit this lovely city
You are doing fine with English, which is Rick's first language; but in Berlin, German would be more useful.
Haha You would have no problem in Berlin when you speak Arabic
und?
kannst du jetzt deutsch? :D
@@arolemaprarath6615 we have a lot arabian refugees and migrants
Love Berlin so much! Absolutely amazing! Everybody should have been there at least once.
When we shopped in East Berlin when the wall was up it was so different. The stores were not stocked well. The clerks were rude because us tourists were spending more money than they made in a year. The Stazi followed us around saying it was for our safety. Nobody jay walked except tourists. I loved the ampelman on the walking lights. I remember we went to the bathroom and left money for the bathroom cleaner. She almost cried because we left enough for her to buy her family presents and it was only a few dollars. We tried to leave more but Major Grieshabor pushed us out the door before we offended the lady. So many memories.
i just love the way Rick steve sir's videos a re made ... simple dressed ... so soft n beautifull voice giving all the information.... beautifull intro song .. everything is so beautifulll
The history in Berlin is fascinating & this video has given me a better understanding throughout the ages , will definitely be visiting in the future
I was in Berlin in September 1989. That was just 2 months before the wall started coming down. I went by train from Cologne to West Berlin. That was through the central part of East Germany, DDR. I also did a day coach tour of East Berlin. It was quite something.
I went to Europe in 2015. So basically a year later after this was filmed me and my friends visited. I was amazed how much of the spot we visited was covered in this video. It really helped that we found a "local" to show around he was a Canadian student that was living in Liepzig who we met in Paris. Berlin is a beautiful city and I would love to be back there again someday.
Thank you, Rick Steves. You have brought us stories and views of Europe from a balanced, joyful perspective. You have created an amazing, objective, insightful and inspiring perspective.
The way you describe the stories, histories, events, etc... is phenomenal. Thanks Steve
I'll be there next month. Can't wait.
Berlin is my absolute favorite city in the world
Vienna for me
@Adalard Richter is there something wrong with that?
im not questioning your opinion, just curious.
Amazing city, worth seeing at least once. Thanks Rick Steave.
What a beautiful country. Amazing how Germany has been rebuilt and at the same time preserved its history. Long live Deutschland 🇩🇪
My name is shavkat and I'm from Usbecistan Germany is very beautiful country. I love you berlin.
I just finished my trip through Berlin and going back to watch this to reminisce. I miss it already 😢
Rick is the man! such an inspiration, he makes me want to get out there and see it all! Thank you so much for this amazing program and all you do.
This is unglaublich! Es ist by far one of the most entertaining Dokumentation über die Stadt Berlin and it's auf amerikanisch!
Are u ok?
Pick a language
i am crying right away after watching this heroic city.....it was sympaticaly to understand Berlin's tremendous, lightenen history
We were there in June 1991, where the Brandenburg Tor is just for people to walk through from West to East Germany (no cars goìng through that gate). It was a beautiful walk & pictorials we made with our Kid. Love it!🤩
Ohh my Gorgeous Berlin! I wish someday I will stay forever with you!💖🥰😘
My favourite city in the world, thanks for another full episode Rick!
Favorite city? What??
@@djmotise yes, he said that, what's the problem?
@@djmotise are you from munich?
This is a really well done video. You show the highlights from Berlin with amazing images and takes and also your English is very clear (I’m a Spanish speaker but I understood everything). Thank you for giving us this wonderful video. I think is the best I have watched so far.
When I visited Berlin I thought it to be excellent. A city that rises from the ashes, like Berlin did, has got my respect. One thing I like about the German mentality is the ability to make an epic project a success! Like the HauptBahnHof , the reunification of east and west, the autobahn etc. I sincerely hope for the future that war will never come to this capitol again.
This was super interesting... really enjoyed the content. I’m visiting Berlin at the moment and learn fun things. Thank you!
Superb! It’s a pleasure to watch a video without backpackers chatting and showing off. Will be visiting Berlin in August and this vid was worth watching indeed!
Thank you for this fascinating Berlin video.
I visited Berlin in 1997.
Greetings from Japan.
★★★★★ Daisuke
Rick Steves Europe is beautiful ❤️
Its definitely on my bucket list, how impressive
Berlin is a fascinating city to see and experience it.
I love Rick showing me the way around! Sweet video binge.
Rick Steves creates an excellent portrait of Berlin today, wish I could visit! 🌅
I loved this place...love from india
I went to Berlin in 2015, and my hostel was in Prenzlauer Berg.
It's a really fun city with a very bohemian vibe, it kinda reminded me of the East Village neighborhood of NYC.
Holger Zimmer gives such a great tour of Prenzlauer Berg in this video!
We had an amazing week in Berlin last May 2017 and we were glad to review all main points we have visited in your video! Really cool :-)))
I’ll be there in 3 days can’t wait😍
I am 41 YO and always heard about it. I want to visit Berlin. I was so happy when the wall fell!
Thanks ever so much for valuable video. I will visit most of them on following week.🙏
Great way to travel in 2021, THANKS STEVE!
Berlin is an amazing city. I hope that I will be able to visit it one day!
favoloso tanti complimenti. e grazie x aver condiviso
I love background music.....thanks for this video
Keep on traveling!, thanks for sharing these amazing traveling adventures. Would like to see you traveling through Latvia, and Estonia, Katya from Katchatss Finland did a little traveling around these countries, I was absolutely stunned!. they even have bike paths and lanes, speechless.
Love to see all the scenes full of people eating, drinking, and being together.
Don't worry reader, I promise we will be back to doing all those things again very soon :)
We never stopped doing these things. Not everyone bought into the media and government narrative. How ironic it is learning about the communist and fascist history of a city, and then seeing people behave like they did beginning in 2020... and not seeing the connection. The attempt to separate people, muzzle them, silence their individual thoughts and opinions, pitting people against each other and proclaiming an atmosphere of constant fear... and ostracizing portions of the population that didn't go along...that's how tyranny works.
Berlin has great history. I have visited this city in 2019.Memorable
i wouldn't say “great” but i agree it has history
Great video of ric Steve ! So happy to see Berlin and its fun and peace loving people and its apt and marvelous memorials on both sides. I see cycles extensively used all over.
The history you have made after 1989 and the place in the world
you have attained is a brilliant record.germany is great! Danke!!!
I spent a bit more than two years in Berlin back in the period '70-'72 with the US Army. I worked out in Rudow and in Marienfelde, and did some time at Tempelhof Airport, and up on Teufelsberg. My barracks is now the location of the Central German Archives on Finckenstein Allee. I've never been back, since most of the places I worked are gone or closed off. My time in Berlin was interesting, and I enjoyed it.
Rick Sir, Slaam. I am anxiously waiting your appreciational reply. I claim that I have enjoyed almost all your Europe's trips. Learned much more. Live long Sir Rick Setves .
I love Berlin. Warm hearted people and great food culture.
I love watching all of your videos!
One of my favorite cities in the world. So green clean interesting place.miss the old Airport Spree its banks .walking in Eastern part. Axis area..East Berlin is more homely .Thanks. it has refreshed my memories of .. Baleen as elderly Germans call it..warm wishes..
Awesome, thank you so much for such a wonderful job.
This a fascinating account of the history of Berlin. Thank you Rick Steves!
this is just one beautiful country if i ever saw one. i wish i could afford a trip there
Awesome. very nice video about Berlin!!
Thanks a lot, Rick Steves, for presenting Berlin as it is now. Your video does more for the tourist industry than any paid advertising guy could do in his whole life. -- Hans Rosenthal (A.H.R.D.)
visited berlin a while back and miss the city a lot.
Can an update on Berlin be done at some time?
Berlin, thank you Rick!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Germany is beautiful & natural country ♥
I absolut loved this video. Thank you for producing it.Congratulation . Nice job. I also loved your shoes, they look so confy...
Some day one day, I know I'll live here.
There's just something about it's past, it's recovery and it's present that captivates me. I think to add to it being the first place I visited with friends and no family in 2016 when I was in college, to it being where I went on my first solo trip in March of 2019, it would be fitting to make this my first post-covid destination to try out the new normal - I cannot express how badly I yearn to live here for sometime.
5:27 this painting is incredible
Such a beautiful amazing City I love the scenery is great for the whole world 🌎
I’m visiting at the end of February. Super excited!
Rick Steves is awesome. His inspirational wording could make a jail house look beautiful 😊
Great work! Thanks
One of the greatest cities where history meets modern world!!
Very interesting city. Lots of history. I hope to visit that city
great review !
will be there in August ...
Impressive video! I can see myself strolling on the streets of this beautiful city.
We like watching this video and really enjoyed. Thanks Mr.
beautifull and good explanation we are like your videos thanks for the video sir Mr Rike Steve we are watching through all Europe beautifull historic places salute you
Love watching your videos on my tv
Beautiful ~ Shared ~
The best documentary about Berlin I have seen, excellent 👏
I made two day trips to Berlin during one of my trips to Germany, from Frankfurt. Basically, I was on the InterCity Express for @ 10 hours, and had 8 hours to spend sight seeing during the time that I was in Berlin. I saw a lot of the places that were shown in this video clip :)
Im traveling to Berlin this weekend and I absolutely loved this video. Very informative
the most liveable capital in europe, its optimistic vibe is absolutely unique, and the berliners are not like the other germans, they take life with a lighter spirit and are overall weird, but in a good way
I wish to find a rent room there ,I ll come there for Master of IT course
Yes berlin and brussels aswell
@Evi1M4chine halt deine fresse
Looks worth visiting in the summer.
Friedrich II was King of Prussia never an Emperor, the Berlin Cathedral was build by Wilhelm II who was actually the third Emperor of the reunited Germany.
Your videos are very enjoyable and entertaining, keep up the good work.
Amazing content! Can’t wait for my upcoming vacation in May
Berlin bietet tadellosen Service! Die Speisen sind von absoluter Perfektion! Business Manager/Kundendienstmitarbeiter sind die professionellsten, freundlichsten, positivsten, hilfsbereitesten und unterstützendsten da draußen! Sie leisten immer perfekte Arbeit, um die Erwartungen zu übertreffen! Ich war immer völlig überwältigt davon, wie makellos perfekt und makellos makellos die Professionalität und die geschäftliche Formalität sind! Der Preis ist immer ein Schnäppchen! Ich freue mich darauf, dort begraben/eingeäschert zu werden, wenn ich viel älter bin
VIELEN DANK, DASS SIE ABSOLUT PERFEKT, EINWANDFREI UND IM HÖCHSTEN GRAD TADELLOS SIND! FORTFAHREN MIT DER PERFEKTEN ARBEIT!
14:05 - yes, most impressive. Very grand and strong ;)
Well done Rick, Thank You
Thank you for the Berlin video!
