Overview
The beautiful city of Potsdam is just a short train ride away from Berlin, surrounded by a fairytale landscape of forests and waterways.
Enjoy a relaxed trip from Berlin on this 4-hour trip to Potsdam, the former residence of centuries of Prussian kings. From the ridiculous to the impressive, from the ineffective to the mighty, you’ll learn how Prussia rose from a minor European power to the foundation of the German Empire. Oh, and find out why Germans leave potatoes on Frederick the Great’s grave!
You can then accompany the guide back to Berlin or stay in Potsdam to go inside any of the splendid palaces, or for example, discover the beautiful Dutch quarter in Potsdam City Centre at your own leisure.
