Media & Film Studies trip to Berlin for schools and colleges

Today the Reichstag houses the German Parliament and is one of the most recognisable landmarks in Berlin. A must-see during you visit. Guided audio tours are available, but the highlight is probably the fantastic mirrored dome.

The Brandenburg Gate is probably Berlin’s signature attraction. Built in 1791 it was one of many historic city gates it is now reinvented as a symbol of unity for the new Berlin.

More than 100 paintings on what was once a section of the east side of the Berlin Wall, this is the longest (1.3km) open-air gallery in the World, commemorating the time of political change when the wall came down.

A cruise along the Spree river gives a view of historic and modern Berlin from a different perspective. The tour passes Bellevue Palace and the Chancellor's Office, Museum Island, Berlin Cathedral, and East Side Gallery.

Museum Island is a complex of five museums on an island in the Spree River in the historic heart of Berlin. The Old Museum, New Museum, Bode Museum, Pergamon Museum and Old National Gallery.

Originally built for the controversial 1936 Olympic games the stadium now host major sports events and music concerts. A tour of the stadium and surrounding Olympic park offers an interesting insight into the history of the site.

A ride in the fastest lift in Europe takes you to the viewing gallery on the 25th floor of Kollhof Tower, 100 meters above Potsdamer Platz in just 20 seconds.
