Berlin, Potsdam and Dresden - holiday information

For more information on the city of Berlin, please click on the links on the left of the page under the "Holidays to Berlin" heading.

Berlin has a dark history but today has risen to become a vibrant city with 2 beating hearts; with some of Europe’s greatest museums. Once Hitler's nerve centre and the battleground of the Cold War, the two sides of Berlin reflect this with varied architecture such as medieval quarters, the glorious street of Unter den Linden and the communist Karl Marx Allee. Close by, Potsdam with the opulent palaces of Frederick the Great. Outside Berlin lays the extremely beautiful Spree Valley (accessible only by hand steered punts where you can watch the world drift by) and of course Dresden, a city which has been rebuilt to historical perfection – a magnificent city which has risen like a phoenix from the ashes.
