Tour description

Join us to learn about the most revolutionary and controversial movements in world history: welcome to the Berlin Communist & Socialist tour. The goal of the tour is to give you a deeper understanding of movements that have changed and largely shaped world history from the end of the 19th century up to the present day. From Marx and Engels, through revolution led by Luxembourg and Liebknecht, the Cold War and the Berlin Wall up to leftwing movements today.

After this 3 hours Walkative journey, you’ll form a historical Gestalt of communist & socialist ideas! Both in Germany and Europe (and even beyond). Both before and after WWII. Long before and long after.

Ru was a highly engaging and fascinating tour guide. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to get a deeper understanding of past governing bodies and how their political standings influenced the Germany of today.

Ru was an amazing guide for our tour: he explained historical facts in a passionate, simple yet informative and thought-provoking way. It was fun to listen to him, we never got bored! Although there are few physical remainders of the communist past of Berlin, we highly recommend the tour to learn more from Ru and his fantastic storytelling!
