East Berlin Food and History Tour
Embark on a culinary journey through East Berlin's lively Friedrichshain , and visit a section of the Berlin Wall's mural art gallery. Skip the need to browse through restaurant reviews and gain insider tips from a local instead. The tour introduces you to a diverse range of flavors from traditional currywurst to Vietnamese tacos, Syrian mezze, and doner kebabs, which helps you experience the culinary richness of Friedrichshain.
Highlights
- ✓Explore Friedrichshain’s foodie hot spots with a guide
- ✓No need to pay for tastings—they’re included
- ✓Enjoy the perk of having craft beer included
- ✓Small group size ensures a more intimate experience
What you'll see & do
- ✓Start your tour with a typical Berlin-style Döner Kebab - a dish that’s eaten over 400,000 times every day in Berlin, paired with a Club Mate Drink.
- ✓At a welcoming Syrian-Levantine restaurant, you’ll savor metabal and Mezze, a dip made from smoked aubergine, tahini, garlic, and lemon, with a homebrewed beer, while your guide shares stories of Berlin’s recent immigrants, their integration, and how they’ve shaped local life.
- ✓Pass by one of the last remaining Berlin Squat Houses that has hosted political and educational events and activities, alongside live concerts, for nearly a decade.
- ✓Step into a trendy, neon-lit Vietnamese street food spot where you’ll try the flavorful TyTy Taco, filled with marinated chicken, pickled red onions, and sweetcorn.
- ✓This vibrant alternative complex was once an imperial rail yard, Soviet factory, and Deutsche Bahn warehouse. Today, it buzzes with art galleries, indie labels, nightclubs, beer gardens, a bouldering hall, and Berlin’s largest indoor skate park.
- ✓Visit Berlin’s most famous currywurst spot to taste the city’s iconic street food, served mit Darm (with casing), while hearing the story of how currywurst was invented and became a local legend.
- ✓Stop by a Turkish nuts and sweets shop to pick up your dessert: a bag of freshly mixed caramelised nuts, the perfect sweet-and-crunchy treat to enjoy as you end the tour.
- ✓This historic open-air art gallery centers around the longest surviving stretch of the Berlin Wall. Standing at just over 1.3 miles from end to end, each individual segment is coated in a colorful and often politically-themed mural that has been in place for over twenty years.
