About this activity
Stroll around the Dutch Quarter with your private guide and see an ensemble of red-brick buildings that is unique in Europe, built by the infamous 'Soldier King', Frederick William I, in the middle of the 18th century to accommodate Potsdam's new community of Dutch artisans.
See the stunning Sanssouci Palace, favorite residence of Frederick the Great, which is set in beautiful parkland scattered with temples, churches and follies.
After walking over the Glienicke 'spy swap' Bridge, visit Cecilienhof, the manorial residence of Germany's last Crown Prince, used to host the Potsdam Conference in 1945. Your private guide will describe the discussions that took place between Churchill, Truman and Stalin, which were to seal the fate of Cold War Europe for the next half century.

Our guide Nickolay met us at hotel and we walk to train station. He was very personable, knowledgeable and it was a delightful day. We saw a lot of the castle area as well as downtown Potsdam. I highly recommend this tour
My husband and I along with two friends took this day tour from Berlin. Our guide was wonderful and the tour was everything we expected. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in a historical visit to a beautiful city. Nice getaway from the bustle of Berlin.
