Overview
The same old famous, or infamous rude bastards tour – your humorous guides who enjoy dirty jokes, rude language, and a bit of fun while conducting this historic tour. But now we are bringing something unique to the city, to the old, historic, medieval city of Berlin.
Many visitors that come to Berlin generally focus on the 20th century, forgetting or simply not realising the other half of this history rich city. We take a few steps back and start when Berlin was called the "swap land" and end just before the start of the 20th century, the rudest way of course.
