Join a small group for an all-day comprehensive guided tour around Berlin. After you arrive by train, you'll board a coach for a sightseeing tour with plenty of photo stops including remains of the Berlin Wall, and the Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag. A traditional German lunch is followed by a visit to the Reichstag, home of the German Parliament. Completed in 1894, the six-story, 143,052-square-foot complex boasts a dazzling glass and steel dome that was built between 1994 and 1999. When you arrive you'll be escorted by your guide to a popular rooftop restaurant adjacent to the famous dome for a glass of sparkling wine. From this unique vantage point you have 360-degree views of the surrounding Berlin cityscape. Then, it's time to shop along the Kurfürstendamm, Germany's most famous shopping boulevard. At the end of the day, you'll transfer to the train station for the ride back to your ship.
