Itinerary
Berlin Mitte Street Food and Craft Beer Tour
Taste 5 local specialties across 4 stops, including currywurst and döner, plus sample 6 craft beers
Your Tour Begins on Neue Promenade
Meet your guide on Neue Promenade, in the heart of Berlin Mitte. Look for your guide carrying a purple bag before skipping the line at one of the neighborhood's most popular döner spots. Your guide shares how the döner became closely connected with Berlin's Turkish community and grew into one of the city's best-loved foods.
Take in the Grandeur of Museum Island
Continue along the banks of the Spree River for views across Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage site home to five of Berlin's most significant museums. Take it in from the outside as your guide sets the scene for the rest of the walk.
Sip a Berliner Weisse in Mitte
Continue to Rosenthaler Straße and settle into a local café for a Berliner Weisse, Berlin’s tart wheat beer traditionally served with raspberry or woodruff syrup. Learn about the drink’s history while soaking up the atmosphere of one of Mitte’s liveliest corners.
Step into Dead Chicken Alley
Follow your guide into Dead Chicken Alley, a narrow passage in Mitte where Jewish heritage, wartime destruction, postwar reinvention, and colorful street art come together. Few streets in Berlin pack this much history and character into such a small space.
Settle the Great Currywurst Debate
Head to Oranienburger Straße for one of Berlin's most iconic street foods. Taste currywurst and weigh in on the city's long-running rivalry between East and West Berlin recipes. Your guide explains how this humble sausage became a symbol of postwar reinvention on both sides of the Wall.
End with a Fresh Donut on Sophienstraße
Finish your walk on Sophienstraße, a cobblestone street in the heart of Berlin Mitte, with a fresh Berliner donut to enjoy on the spot. Your guide brings together the stories, flavors, and history you've discovered throughout Mitte as the tour comes to an end.
