No doors is the way to go! Just way more fun and no reflections on camera shots too. I lucked out on this tour, because there were lots of clouds in the morning so it didn’t look like it would be a great flight. However, when we took off most of them lifted and allowed us to even go to the top of Mount Waialeale which is often not accessible. It’s one of the wettest spots on Earth.
After 9 years of living in Seattle I thought I had seen the whole city. I was wrong.
These were way easier and way more fun to ride than I had expected. Of course it rained on us towards the end.
A bike tour with Fat Tire Tours was the first activity that I did when I got to Berlin and it helped out a lot with finding my way around. It is just a great way to get around to the sites without wasting any time. https://www.fattiretours.com/berlin/tours/city-tour Tour Highlights Brandenburg Gate Checkpoint Charlie Berlin Wall Nazi Architecture Site of Hitler’s bunker Victory Column Tiergarten Stop for lunch at traditional beer garden (price not included) Reichstag (parliament building) Bebelplatz Museum Island Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe Berlin Cathedral Potsdamer Platz Eastside Gallery Karl-Marx-Allee Oberbaumbrücke At Café Moskau there is a 9×15-meter mosaic entitled “Aus dem Leben der Völker der Sowjetunion” ( The Life of the People of the Soviet Union ), which was created in 1964 by Bert Heller.
Visiting a concentration camp was something that I wanted to do for really unknown reasons. I knew it would be more of a somber walking through a memorial knowing that this was just one of them. Probably had the best guide of any tour I’ve gone on ever, which definitely made it more worthwhile. https://www.insidertour.com/tours.php/cat/27/id/43/title/Sachsenhausen-Concentration-Camp-Memorial
This might be the most fun bike tour that I have ever been on. It must have been a combination of the guide and the group, because it didn’t cover as much as the other tours that I did in Berlin. However, it was simply fun. We were actually supposed to catch a train back, but the guide and group decided just to bike the whole way back. Well of course part way back one of the group’s Australians somehow broke the peddle on his bike.
I don’t always drink wine, but when I do it’s on a wine train in Napa Valley! Yes, you can lean out of the windows for footage. Hopefully you enjoy looking at grapes, because the scale of grapes growing is vast and impressive. I actually don’t recall taking this video. Perhaps it was after my train tour and I was a little tipsy. Like they say, “when in Rome!” That might also explain why I’m standing on the track unable to see whether a train is coming in the opposite direction about to take me out.
Per my normal approach I took a bike tour when I first got to Brussels. It was actually the most taxing bike tour I have ever gone on. Maybe they changed the route since I went, but at the time there were hills and some iffy spots to manuver. I personally thought it was a blast, but there were definitely some unhappy customers. At least we didn’t get yelled at by locals, like I experienced in Berlin!
This was extremely interesting with getting to go down underneath the building into the Medieval Crypt.
I admit that I’m a beer fan. I wasn’t sure how this would be, because I live in the Pacific Norhwest of the United States and have been on over 15 brewery tours. This is way different; it’s more of a museum tour. It was a blast that far exceeded expectations. Plus, of course you get a perfectly poured pint and get to drink it overlooking the city!
