We had a fantastic tour with Lauren. We were not sure what to expect from an architectural tour, but Lauren was indeed able to show us how architecture reflected life on both sides of the wall. Along the way, we had an unexpected encounter with a current resident of one of the “Palaces for the People” and we all learned so much . We also thoroughly enjoyed getting to known Lauren and what her life is like in Berlin. This was our second Context tour in Germany this week and we look forward to more trips and more tours with Context guides in the future.

Igor was a brilliant guide—friendly, informative and funny. We felt very quickly that we were simply taking a walk with a friend who was steeped in architectural and historical knowledge, but who also shared freely relevant experience from his own life. He was very patient with our numerous questions and gave us a strong sense of what it was like to grow up in East Berlin, and to live through the momentous changes of reunification. Igor's was one of the best guided tours we have ever taken in decades of traveling, and whenever we might be fortunate enough to return to Berlin, we will arrange another tour with him.

The Cold War history tour was a great mix of architecture and history, and Finn was an excellent guide! Very friendly and knowledgeable, highly recommend Finn and this tour.
