Travel story
In the Champs-Élysées, we discuss philosophy
If we break the questions, Berlin will laugh
To get lost correctly, the traveler falls in love with both

    HISTORY OF THE MONUMENT
    A unique viewpoint. From the top of the panoramic terrace, your eyes sweep over the whole of Paris.
    The revisited Antiquity. Architect Jean-François Chalgrin was inspired by the Roman Arch of Titus in a single arch, but went beyond it by exceptional dimensions (about 50 m high, 45 m long and 22 m wide) and abandoning columns.
    A key place of major national events. Wanted by Napoleon in 1806, the Arc de Triomphe was inaugurated in 1836 by French king, Louis-Philippe, who dedicated it to the armies of the Revolution and the Empire. The Unknown Soldier was buried at the base of the arch in 1921. The flame of remembrance is rekindled every day at 18:30.

    You will marvel at the breathtaking royal chateau, transformed by the ‘Sun King’ Louis XIV in the 1660s from a hunting lodge. Playground of the French monarchs, Versailles was the centre of royal and political power until the French Revolution in 1789 which saw Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette forced to return to the capital.

    Your audio guide will enable you to discover the State apartments of the King and Queen, the Royal Chapel and Hall of Mirrors, the epitome of French opulence: three hundred and fifty-seven mirrors line the gold-adorned hall and crystal chandeliers hang from the ceiling.

    You will also be given time to explore the manicured gardens “à la française”, which mirrors the splendor of the interior. Designed by the French landscaper André Le Nôtre in 1661 for the King Louis XIV, the 2,000-acre park is an architectural expanse of perspectives, parterres, fountains and groves that since its inception has defined what a French garden should be.

  • Berlin Street Art Tour (group tour in English / 3 hours) Artists will tell you the secrets, history, techniques, rules and personal stories of graffiti and street art on this colorful tour of a city whose walls are like canvas. This is a comprehensive tour of the history of Street Art & Graffiti and its culture.

    What to expect?
    Berlin’s air is thick with paint. Its soundtrack is the clack-clack of a spray can in the night. Tags tell as much of a story as five-storey murals, a name on a train can be as expressive as a centuries-old painting by a Dutch master.

    Who owns the city? Who designs our public space, can express and realize themselves in it? What messages do we perceive and what do the artists and actors have to say to us, who empower themselves and often communicate without being asked?

    Murals, rooftops, bombing and tagging, stencils, paste-ups and stickers are their language of expression, which we will discover on this tour.

    Our guides are experts and members of this scene. They know the history, the stories and above all the culture and will show you the best hidden corners for urban art in this modern Mecca.

    The tour starts in Friedrichshain and ends in Kreuzberg with the realization that urban art is more than just writing on the wall.

    What to bring:
    Depending on the current art and tour route we might need an AB zone transport ticket. It´s best to bring them to the tour but we can also buy them along the way when we need it.
    Appropriate clothing depending on weather (umbrella if necessary)

Day5
  • Breakfast
  • Museum Island Berlin (Entrance tickets) A unique ensemble of buildings on Spreeinsel (Spree Island) in the heart of Berlin. It encompasses five large Berlin museums built under the Prussian rulers as well as a reception and exhibition building, the James Simon Gallery.

    The Pergamon Museum
    The three-winged Pergamonmuseum by Alfred Messel is unfortunately closed since October 2023 due to extensive renovation work. It presents the Collection of Classical Antiquities, the Museum of Pre-Asia and the Museum of Islamic Art. The Collection of Classical Antiquities is one of the most important collections of Greek and Roman art in the world. The most famous work is the Roman Pergamon Altar, whose sculptural frieze depicts the battle between gods and giants. The Hall with the Pergamon Altar will reopen in 2027.

    The Bode Museum
    Restoration of the Bode Museum at the tip of Museum Island was completed back in 2005. In its magnificent halls it houses a unique collection of sculptures, showcasing exhibits from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, including works from Donatello, Bernini and Canova. Other treasures are housed in the Museum of Byzantine Art and the Numismatic Collection. Together with works of European sculpture, works from Berlin’s Gemäldegalerie (Picture Gallery) are also on display. Since July 2019, visitors can once again visit the James Simon Cabinet in its original room, which was closed as a result of anti-Semitism under the Nazi dictatorship. In summer, the riverbank opposite is a popular meeting place for Berliners and their visitors because of the beautiful view of the northern tip of Museum Island.

    The Neues Museum
    The reconstruction and renovation of the Neues Museum by the renowned architect David Chipperfield took a total of ten years. A sensitive approach to the old building and the traces of war, combined with ultra-modern conversions, resulted in an exciting, unusual architectural style that has not lost its authentic character. Since the spectacular reopening in 2009, the building has housed selected exhibits from the Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection, the Museum of Prehistory and Early History and the Collection of Classical Antiquities. The world-famous bust of Nefertiti is presented in a special octagonal room under the northern dome.

    The Alte Nationalgalerie
    Like an ancient temple, the Alte Nationalgalerie (Old National Gallery) rises above Museum Island on its high stepped pedestal. It is clear that Greek temples served as a model for the architect, Friedrich August Stüler. The Alte Nationalgalerie houses paintings and sculptures from Classicism, Romanticism, Biedermeier, Impressionism and the early Modern Age. It is considered to be one of the most comprehensive collections of art from the period between the French Revolution and the First World War. World-famous works such as The Monk by the Sea by Caspar David Friedrich and The Thinker by Auguste Rodin can be found here, as well as works by Schinkel, Menzel, Manet, Monet and Renoir among many others. Right at the entrance, visitors are welcomed by the most beautiful couple in Prussia: the famous Princesses Group by Johann Gottfried Schadow.

    The Altes Museum
    The classical building, the Altes Museum, designed by Karl Friedrich Schinkel in 1830 was the first museum building on the island. And for the first time, the royal art collections were shown to the public in a specially designed antique-style building. Today, countless masterpieces of classical antiquity are exhibited alongside the magnificent architecture with its expansive circular dome: Sculpture, jewellery, vases and coins from Greek and Etruscan art, as well as from the Roman Empire. Gold and silver jewellery is displayed under a blue ceiling in a special treasure chamber.
