كان ساكسنهاوزن أكبر معسكر اعتقال في محيط برلين، وواحدًا من معسكرات عديدة ضمن نظامٍ يُذكر الآن بفظائع النازية. صُممت هذه الجولة لتُقدم لكم لمحةً عامة عن النصب التذكاري لمعسكر الاعتقال في ساكسنهاوزن، ولتُطلعكم على أهم معالم برلين خلال فترة وصولكم إلى الشاطئ. ستُستقبلون أمام سفينة الرحلات البحرية فور رسوها، وسيتم اصطحابكم إلى حافلة حديثة ومريحة ومكيفة. سينقلكم سائقكم المحترف بعد ذلك عبر الأراضي المنبسطة الخلابة لألمانيا الشرقية سابقًا إلى برلين. تستغرق الرحلة حوالي ثلاث ساعات.

تجوّل في الساحات الأمامية لهذا القصر الباروكي الرائع الذي يعود إلى أواخر القرن السابع عشر، والذي بناه أول ملك بروسي، فريدريك الأول، لزوجته صوفي شارلوت. إنه مكان مثالي لالتقاط صور لا تُنسى.

You will then be driven through the lush greenery of Berlin's vast central park, the Tiergarten.

Make sure to have your camera ready to catch the sun glinting on the golden angel Victoria at the Victory Column, goddess of victory, as you circle around Prussia's emphatic monument to its triumphs in the Wars of Unification.

When we reach the German parliament building (The Reichstag Building)– burned down after Hitler’s rise to power, now a bold symbol of modern German democracy – we will exit the bus and spend the next portion of the tour on foot.

Next we walk through the gateways of Berlin's most iconic monument, The Brandenburg Gate, and find out what makes the Gate the most important cultural monument in Germany.

After we leave Pariser Platz plenty of time will be taken to journey through the iconic field of concrete blocks, and bear witness the atrocities of National Socialism at the Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Boarding the bus again we head next to see the dark heart of Nazi Germany at the former headquarters of the SS and Gestapo and come face-to-face with the Cold War's most brutal symbol: The Berlin Wall

Next you will have the chance to cross between East and West at Checkpoint Charlie, the most famous border crossing point over the Berlin Wall, frontline of the Cold War, where spies roamed and US and Soviet tanks faced off in 1961. We will take a short lunch break here of approximately 30-45 minutes

After lunch we will take some time to marvel at the stunning structures at Museum Island and imperial splendor of this UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site before driving to the Sachsenhausen memorial site – the journey takes roughly 1 hour.

When you reach the camp you will exit the bus with your guide and be given a 60-75 minute overview of the memorial site. You will then board the bus once more, say goodbye to your guide, and be driven back to port. Please be aware, the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial is roughly a one hour drive from Berlin. The tour is organised to try and minimise time spent on the bus. This is why we visit Sachsenhausen in the afternoon, as it lies between Berlin and Warnemünde – on the way back to port. You will, however, spend more time on the bus than on our regular Berlin shore excursion. This is a necessity to see Berlin and Sachsenhausen in a day. All of our shore excursions are adjusted to each ship’s docking times and each starts promptly after your vessel’s arrival, returning with plenty of time to spare before its departure. We have been organizing shore excursions for nearly a decade and have never missed a cruise ship’s departure
