For decades, Kreuzberg was a very special location in a very special city! That makes its history different and interesting. Now it is a district in the center of Berlin, known for its progressive and multicultural atmosphere, and more importantly for its art scene, Street Arts and Squatting.
There are a significant numbers of immigrants from all around the world, also many activists, artists, and expats that work and live in Kreuzberg, and because of them, it has a unique vibe and nightlife. Besides, it's home to many international restaurants and bars, serving food and drink of every corner of the world!
But it's not fair to describe Kreuzberg just like that because it has a rich history too! From industrialization to Berlin Wall and even today, you can find a trace of many global crisis in Kreuzberg!
In our tour, we will walk through this district to see many historical memories and surprising stories of Kreuzberg.
In our walking tour, we will visit:
Aufbau Haus
Possession House
Oranienplatz
Engelbecken
Children’s Farm at the Wall
Bonanza Café (break)
Art District Bethanien
Mariannenplatz
Treehouse at the wall

Hello, I'm Behzad! I am a formerly Ph.D. student in physics, but now, passionate about the history and vibes of Berlin. A city with an amazing history in each corner and a multicultural vibe.
Why am I doing this? For more than a year, we have had a large group that goes out every week and visits a new neighborhood of the city, and we haven't visited a place twice! So I decided to share this experience and show Berlin, and all layers of it, to an even larger group of people, that are you! Guruwalkers!

We had a fantastic tour with Behzad! He was incredibly friendly, warm, and welcoming, and shared so many interesting facts and stories about Berlin. His passion for the city is truly contagious and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The tour was informative, engaging, and felt like exploring Kreuzberg with a knowledgeable friend. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend Behzad to anyone visiting Berlin. Thank you for such a lovely experience!

The tour was very informatieve, lots of background information, history and politics all woven in a interesting story. The tour had a coffee stop in the middle, but even without it it, the three hours would have flown by. I brought two teenagers to the tour, and they really enjoyed it, they loved the humor and were surprised how Behzad made even simple buildings look unbelievably interesting. A twelve year old talking still talking about it an hour after. That's a big win.

It was really interesting and Bezhad is well informed and helpful and with a warm heart on the right place. Glad to have 3h of time to discover at least a part of Kreuzberg.
