In Berlin, like in any other capital, a bus excursion program with a hop on/hop off system is very developed. This service is convenient because you can get off at the stop and then take the next bus along the same route to explore the sights in more detail. One of the most famous companies providing this service is CitySightseeing. Its red double-decker buses are clearly visible even from afar. I will provide you with detailed information about their destinations, routes and rates.
This open-top bus runs on the classic route all year round from 9:30 to 17:30, except on September 25, when the Berlin Marathon takes place.
Tourists can get on or off at any stop, that is, this is a regular bus HOP ON HOP OFF (we have already seen it in Budapest and Vienna). The bus has an audio guide in English, French, German, Italian and other languages (13 in total). There is also free Wi-Fi.
