Starting now, I will give away a free audio-tour every week.
Starting with "Stories of Escape and Tragedy". The walk begins at North Station in Berlin and runs down Bernauer Strasse where a piece of the wall is still standing. You'll hear of people who escaped by jumping from windows into the West, and of people who, tragically, died trying. And you'll get the full story behind the iconic picture of the soldier jumping across the fence to freedom.
This tour can also be enjoyed by listening to the stories at home.
I am giving away 5 vouchers. So act quickly to be among the first to load it down. Once you have the VoiceMap app installed, enter the code: 70E945D0
Enjoy!
And come back next week for another free tour.

You can even sample the tours from home and get help in deciding which places to visit.

How about seeing new places without traveling far? You can do a virtual audio tour sitting at home! I have recorded lots of tours in beautiful historical places such as Berlin, Potsdam, Meissen, Hamburg, Düsseldorf, Quedlinburg, Meissen, Sylt, Edinburgh and more. If you want to try one out, I will send you a voucher for a free tour, just let me know which one you would like, and I'll send you a code to use. They are yours to keep, so if you ever come to town, you can do the tours on site!

I just published my 16th audio tour (most are in English, some are in German). This is a great way to explore a place on your own, guided by your mobile's GPS, and listening to interesting facts and stories. So far I've covered Berlin, Potsdam, Meissen, Düsseldorf, Quedlinburg, and Warnemünde. Or maybe you would want to listen to a tour from home? That's possible too. I have a few free vouchers. If you are interested, please send me a message, and I send you a free voucher for the tour you chose.

What do Germans secretly dream of? Being Italian! This was at the all white Tavola event of my favorite restaurant in Berlin, at the Osteria Maria.

I've recently published an audio tour on VoiceMap. This is a great way to explore Berlin on your own, at your pace, and still get lots of useful information and suggestions on what else to do and see. It works like this: you load the tour on your mobile, follow instructions to get to the starting point (the Reichstag in this case), and then hit play. My voice will guide you along a path that leads you to some landmarks and some hidden treasures. I also have a tour of the Berlin Wall, and Potsdam is coming up. Try it out! I also have some vouchers to give away, just write to me. Enjoy!
