It was just great. The check-in was relaxed, the food was good, the staff was very friendly, and of course the view was amazing in the bright sunshine. I’d go back anytime.

The ride was very nice. The personal commentary was especially good. With other cruise lines, I’m used to hearing recorded announcements. Having a real person—and such a friendly one at that—made it very pleasant. It was very windy and chilly, so the windows were closed. That made the ride more comfortable.

Hello...I really liked it!!! At first I had problems buying a ticket because I don't speak English, I'm from Latvia, but I managed to get a ticket. It was a great adventure, like going to the plane through security control....When I got up, it was already dark outside and there was a beautiful view of the illuminated city

A bit overpriced for what you get. The virtual VR show is overrated; it could just as easily be shown on a screen. There are VR elements only at the beginning; otherwise, nothing special—I expected more.

It’s perfect for easily visiting all the historical highlights using free public transportation. With good use of the map, subway, and train, I highly recommend it!

We bought the Berlin Welcome Card, which not only gave us unlimited travel on public transport but also discounts at some museums. It was easy; within minutes, I had the email in my inbox. The tickets arrived a little later in my inbox, only after I had chatted with Headout to ask where my tickets were. Just print them out and take them with you on your trip. Super easy. I can recommend it.

The visit to the Illuseum Berlin was an extraordinary and impressive experience that far exceeded my expectations. Every installation was creative, surprising, and perfectly executed. The optical illusions never ceased to amaze me and at the same time made me think. The atmosphere is unique, the museum is excellently organized, and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. It's a place where fun, art, and science come together in a fascinating way. Highly recommended for all ages—this museum is guaranteed to leave a lasting impression.

Berlin TV Tower virtual reality tour highlights

A journey into Berlin’s history

The virtual reality Berlin TV Tower experience promises a closer look into the history of the tower and the city. It traces the journey of how the city developed and evolved over 9 centuries from the Middle Ages to the present day.

An interactive interface

Berlin’s Odyssey features a combination of unique 3D animations, reconstructions, and clips of 360-degree live video coverage to depict the Berlin TV Tower’s architecture and construction process. The realistic simulations allow visitors to see the tower from a unique perspective.

Comprehensive yet time-efficient

With two programs that last for 12 and 15 minutes, the virtual reality Berlin TV Tower tours provide a brief yet detailed overview of the attraction as well as the city’s history. This unique form of exploration enhances visitors’ experience at Fernsehturm Berlin.

Beyond the VR experience at Berlin TV tower

Head up to the 203 m-high observation deck and take in breathtaking 360° views of Berlin through floor-to-ceiling windows. Spot famous landmarks across the skyline and deepen your visit with the interactive information displays, offering stories and facts about the city’s architecture.

Tips for enjoying the VR experience

Choose the right season: Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) offer mild weather, clearer skies, and fewer crowds. Winter has fewer visitors, but fog or snow can reduce visibility. From June to August and around Christmas, tickets sell out quickly. Reserving online ahead of time avoids long waits or disappointment.
Go early or late to avoid peak times: Weekdays, especially Tuesday to Thursday, are usually quieter. Early mornings (before 11am) or late evenings (after 7pm) give a more relaxed experience.
Consider sunset slots carefully: Sunset after 6 pm offers spectacular views but is also the busiest time, especially from May to September. For a quieter experience, plan your visit before 11 am or between 12 and 3 pm.
Do the VR experience first: Watching the VR journey before heading to the observation deck makes the skyline and landmarks more meaningful when you see them in real life.
Morning visits give the clearest views: Early hours often have better light and less haze, which makes the city panorama sharper and more enjoyable.
Consider evening dining: Booking a table at Sphere restaurant after your VR and deck visit lets you enjoy Berlin’s skyline with fewer people around, as many day-trippers have left.
