Hello! I'm Estela, and I've been living in Berlin for five years. For me, a city that isn't just streets, but open books full of secrets, voices, and memories. I studied Ancient Sciences and I'm passionate about giving spirit to places: allowing every corner to speak to us as if it had a soul. Through my social media projects *La Vida de Nosotros* and *Te Cuento de Alemania*, I've been sharing these stories for some time now, and now I want to experience them with you in the city, walking and discovering together what Berlin still whispers. I invite you to walk with us through Berlin and discover its hidden voices, those that don't always appear in guidebooks, but that make this city an unforgettable place :)

Tour description

Immerse yourself in 1920s Berlin: a city teetering between luxury and ruin. This tour takes you through the cafés, theaters, and streets where European modernity was born, from Charlottenburg to Nollendorfplatz and Potsdamer Platz. Discover how the Weimar Republic transformed defeat and crisis into an explosion of art, freedom, and desire.


Amidst the neon lights and cabaret smoke, you'll meet the figures who defined an era—Marlene Dietrich, Josephine Baker, Brecht, and Anita Berber—and the places that still resonate with their presence: the Romanisches Café, the Hotel Eden, and the legendary El Dorado.


But not everything was bright: we'll also talk about the shadows that grew at the same time: the fear, poverty, and hatred that paved the way for Nazism.

More than a historical tour, it is a journey to the heart of a city that invented the 20th century: free, contradictory, and tragically beautiful.
