We only used the Berlin WelcomeCard for public transportation and it is well worth its price. Surely many of the sights are a short distance apart so you would spend a lot of time walking. With public transport this is just a bit faster.
We mostly took the bus, but also the S-bahn or U-bahn. We used google maps to find the right connections and they are very accurate. We booked tickets for zone ABC because we also did the airport transport by public transport as well as a visit to Sachsenhausen concentration camp.
Just be sure to print out the codes on paper when you buy, because you have to show them at inspection (this only happened once).

In Berlin, the card worked very well. Unlimited public transportation is very practical. You can get around Berlin very easily and get where you want to be. We also got discounts everywhere we wanted to go in. Card was known everywhere.

It's perfect for transport, with one small drawback: I took the Pass for 6 days. We should consider a 7-day pass. As far as discounts are concerned, it would be a good idea to develop partnerships (zoological parks in particular) and consider slightly larger discounts.

Overall, I really liked the Citycard. I found it particularly practical that the use of public transport is already included without any complications - this makes getting around the city really stress-free. The discounts at various attractions are also a plus point, as you save quite a bit. One suggestion for improvement would be to make the map even more digital: Instead of just getting a PDF with the info, an interactive online overview or app would be great, where you can see directly which services are included. I would also find a function where you can tick off what you have already visited or used particularly helpful - that way you would always have a good overview of your stay.

Didn't realise we wouldn't get a discount for the main museums like Neues. Didn't need to travel that much so in the end only a little bit of value for our money. Audioguide 1st description was as expected, but after that it would auto play the next without showing where the subject of that explanation was. Like the aquarium close to townhall or the rabbits close to Gedächtnichtskirche.

I purchased a 3 day Berlin Welcome Card. I first used it to travel from Berlin Airport to Berlin Hauptbahnhof. A Train Conductor went through the train checking tickets. I had mine on my mobile - absolutely no hassle. NB:You don't need to validate the Berlin Welcome Card ticket. I then used the card over the next 2 days throughout Berlin and as far as Potsdam on various forms of public transport. I received substantial discounts at the Barberini Museum in Potsdam and the Berlin TV Tower Observation Deck along with other museums. The convenience was fantastic because you don't have to keep buying separate tickets for each trip. It paid for itself in no time. I'd thoroughly recommend buying it online before you arrive in Berlin. Just put the dates you intend to travel. it was easy to buy and the ticket was emailed to me immediately.

The discount on various museums is ideal, also the "free" public transport travel makes it easy to see much of Berlin.

The all inclusive public transport is great. But you can get that on it's own. The Berlin welcome card part was useless. Website is horrible, it's impossible to easily figure out what's included, the paged interface makes it impossible to search, and the way it's indicated is very confusing. In the end we didn't get any price reduction in the places we visited

It was just a short trip and introduction to Berlin. The card is easy if you stay longer and want to visit many museums, very easy for public transportation though. The directions to acctivate the card are not clear. There are no vending machines or anything at the public transport stops to acctivate your card and it appears that if you have the PDF letter that you are automatically already activated at the desired date and time.

It was nice not to have to worry about tickets for the metro. However I'm not sure it was worth it for the price. I would recommend if people make a plan to do a lot of discounted things and visit all the museums on museum island. However for me and how much I used it, I'm not sure it was really worth it.

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with my recent ticket purchase. My issue is very simple: Where are my QR codes? The tickets provided by your system clearly lacks the required QR code, rendering it invalid. Upon arriving at the service center at Berlin Airport, I was informed that the ticket provided by your system is invalid because it is missing the QR code. This caused significant delays to my schedule, and I had no choice but to purchase another ticket, which is completely unacceptable. Despite contacting customer service multiple times, all I received was confirmation that my payment was successful. However, this does nothing to address the real issue. If your company cannot provide a valid ticket, why is payment even being accepted? This is highly irresponsible and has caused major inconvenience and financial loss. I demand an immediate explanation for why my ticket lacked a QR code. I also request a full refund and compensation for the inconvenience and additional costs I incurred.
