What people say

"Welcome to Peacock Island. Yes, you read that correctly. This beautiful island in Berlin is home to free-roaming peacocks, hence its name, and its fairytale-esque scenery makes for a great photo op (brownie points if a peacock photobombs you!). The island is a wonderful trip from Berlin. With the palace being closed, I think a few hours is sufficient to marvel at the romantic beauty and capture your photos. Price: You will only need to pay the price of public transportation (roughly 3-4 EUR one way). How to get there: Take the S7 to Berlin-Wannsee. If coming from Alexanderplatz, take the train in the direction of Potsdam Hbf. From Wannsee, you can take the 218 Stadtbus toward Pfaueninsel and get off the Pfaueninsel stop. This is the closest stop to the ferry. Know before you go: Unfortunately, the island's palace is closed for renovations until 2024. The island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, so dogs, bikes, and smoking are forbidden. The commute may take about an hour, depending on where you're coming from in Berlin."

Berlin is one of Europe's most dynamic cities. Its rich, tragic history has spawned countless museums, memorials, & projects that are both fascinating and impactful. The art scene has something for everyone; if you prefer classic & historical, modern & thought-provoking, or if you don't consider yourself "artsy" at all, you can always find something to appreciate in this city. Berlin's energy is unmatched. So far I've visited 3 times & am still planning on going back! I guarantee Germany's capital will not disappoint. This guide isn't just the locations you'll find on other sites. While some of those locations certainly are worth visiting, this is my carefully curated list of what to do both on and off the beaten path. I provide all of my experiences & opinions on each location/activity, how long I think is worth spending in each place, & all of the things you need to know before you go.
