I gave acceptable because, given the cost of the ticket, it would be nice to have an audio guide in multiple languages including Italian, illustrating what is seen and giving general info about Berlin. I was not at all happy with the fact that it was not possible to change the visiting time of the tower for a justifiable reason (shift of the plane flight). We risked not arriving on time and losing our ticket money.

Great view of Berlin. As long as its a clear day I highly recommend it as you get a 360 degree view of the entire city where you can see for miles
Quick and easy booking and processing, no waiting times on site, tickets should be booked at least 2-3 days in advance

We liked that the booking of the ticket and the team on site was very nice and helpful! We did NOT like the fact that there were a lot of school classes there at the time! Therefore only the okay! This could possibly have been coordinated differently....because some of the pupils were totally bored and blocked the information boards on the windows, which was so annoying! But otherwise .... a great experience! Thank you very much! With kind regards Corina Friedt

The view was great, simply impressive. Unfortunately, the tickets can only be accessed in the app and are not sent by email. So I had to download the app, which didn't work on the train. But I managed to do it in the TV tower. The restaurant was closed, it was being renovated. The drinks stand had hefty prices.

The movie, which was seen with the VR glasses, did not have a high-resolution image. The tour upstairs was over quickly. It was good that it wasn't so crowded.

View was great but it was hot up there and too many people sitting in the way not interested what to see. Disappointed about the experience as we left early due to the above.
If you buy tickets online, it's a bit cheaper than on site. And you don't have to stand in a line for tickets. It's a good choice.
The experience itself was great. Amazing views and easy to get up to the top. Staff were all really helpful. The link to the meeting point in the app was incorrect. It took us to the back entrance of the tower. Fortunately we gave ourselves plenty of time and found it ourselves. Second ticket didn't scan on the way out and then disappeared from screen so staff had to let us out.

Friendly service on the ship. Everything was clean and tidy. It was irritating that a different meeting point was indicated when booking than was then stated in the confirmation email. There was no recognizable shipping company. At the starting point stated in the booking, the employee himself did not know where our ship departed and at which events we had booked. We then went to the meeting point from the email and found the ship. On the ship it was a pity that the announcements were only played from the tape and no Berlin charm jumped over through live announcements.

The TV Tower is a must see for when you visit Berlin. Check the weather conditions for your booking. We had great weather and beautiful view 360 over Berlin. Can be bussy so this skip the line is a useful extra. Enjoy your trip.

The Berlin Welcome Card gives you access to all public transportation in Berlin. You also get discounts in many museums and restaurants.
View original review in Dutch
Public transport tickets were never checked. We didn't feel like the discount on tickets made a big difference and a lot of places don't have a discount
Good experience: just a little doubt, as I had booked on the internet, was there a need or not for a paper format? (I had the flash code on our mobiles...). In the documentation, there was also mention of a first activation on a terminal, but we couldn't find one...

We purchased Berlin welcome cards which allowed us to ride the metro without having to purchase tickets every day; very convenient! And we purchased tickets to visit Parliament/dome and the show "Falling In Love." For our first visit to Berlin, these were both enjoyable and worthwhile activities. Headout worked well for us!!
We had no check for the 5 days 8n Berlin, both in the subway and in the bus the tickets were not needed. So I paid a lot of money when ws was not necessary. We did not have time to see museums.

Easy and no hassle checking in and out like in the Netherlands. Metro is great. Quickly from A to B and criss-cross the city. In addition, discount at various museums.

We used all the public transport - S Bahn, U Bahn, Tram and the buses in Berlin so the Welcome Card was fantastic to have with us. We didn't have to worry about tickets. We also got discounts in the DDR museum, Berlin Cathedral and the Hop on hop off bus by having the Welcome card. Overall Berlin is a fantastic place to visit
The unlimited use of public transport for 72 hours was brilliant. And there were good discounts on entry to the museums and attractions that we visited. Highly recommended.
The best decision, to buy the Welcome Card, to travel comfortably in Berlin, even from or to the airport. I will definitely buy the Welcome Card when I return to Berlin.

Fernsehturm Berlin is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks, full of rich history and yes, it still functions as a broadcasting facility. Today, it stands as a symbol of a unified East and West Germany as one democratic country.
Fernsehturm Berlin was constructed between 1965 and 1969 by the German Democratic Republic government to facilitate television and radio broadcasting. It was also intended to demonstrate East Germany’s technological prowess during the Cold War era. Designed by architect Hermann Henselmann, the 368-metre-high structure is the tallest building in Germany and one of the tallest in the European Union!
Berlin TV Tower historyThe Berlin TV Tower elevator takes you up to the observation deck in about 40 seconds. As you step onto the platform, you’re greeted by magnificent 360º panoramic views of Berlin’s cityscape. Use the telescopes to spot popular landmarks like the Reichstag Parliament building, Berlin Cathedral (Berliner Dom), Spree River, Tempelhof Airport, the Olympic Stadium, and Brandenburg Gate.
Inside Berlin TV TowerSituated about 207 metres above the ground, the Sphere Restaurant offers an elaborate menu, including dishes from local and continental cuisines. The ambience is a mix of retro and contemporary chic, perfectly complementing the spectacular view from the windows. The cherry on top? The restaurant is a revolving structure, rotating once every 30-60 minutes on its own axis!
Berlin TV Tower restaurantsEmbark on a thrilling virtual reality tour of the construction of Fernsehturm Berlin. Known as Berlin’s Odyssey, this immersive VR experience blends 3D animations, reconstructions, and 360º video recordings.
