Your entry into the underworld

Our open-roofed underground tour is an unforgettable experience.

One subway station as a potato cellar, another as a nuclear bunker for up to 3300 people? These are not wild fantasies on our part, but just two of many exciting and surprising stories that are hidden behind Berlin's subway stations. You can find out more about them on the most unusual city tour of the capital!

In an open subway car, you will travel at around 35 km/h through the Berlin subway tunnels. The tour lasts about 2 hours, during which our host will provide you with interesting facts and curiosities about the structural features and history of the Berlin subway.
