Led by an expert local guide, this easy-paced experience offers unique insights into the royal history, architecture, and beauty that shaped Prussia, while allowing plenty of time to enjoy the atmosphere, ask questions, and take memorable photographs along the way.

Begin your journey at Potsdam’s Alte Markt, the historic heart of the city, surrounded by elegant baroque architecture including St. Nikolai Church and the reconstructed City Palace. Continue through the charming Dutch Quarter, famous for its picturesque red-brick houses, hidden courtyards, and lively streets.

Along the way, hear fascinating stories about Frederick William I — the “Soldier King” and “Potato King” — before continuing to Potsdam’s elegant Brandenburg Gate and the magnificent Sanssouci Palace, Frederick the Great’s famous summer residence.
