Hi everyone! I'm planning my first trip to Berlin and would love some insider tips. What are the must-sees and some less-known spots I should check out?

Welcome to the adventure! Make sure to visit the Brandenburg Gate, and don’t miss out on the East Side Gallery to see the longest remaining section of the Berlin Wall. It’s full of history and art!

If you’re into museums, the Museum Island is a must. It has a complex of five internationally significant museums. Plan a day for it because there’s loads to see.

Thanks! I love a good museum day. Any recommendations for places to eat that might not be on every tourist’s radar?

You have to try Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebab! It's not a hidden gem anymore, but it’s definitely a local favorite. Also, explore Kreuzberg for some fantastic street food.

For a quieter, more contemplative spot, check out the gardens at Charlottenburg Palace. They’re beautiful and a bit less crowded than other parks.

That sounds lovely! How about nightlife? I’d love to experience Berlin’s famous club scene.

For the best experience, hit up Berghain – it’s legendary. Just be prepared for a strict door policy. Another great place is Tresor, a staple of Berlin techno.

I’ve heard about Berghain’s door policy! Any tips on what to wear or how to increase my chances of getting in?

Dress casually but in black, look confident, and don’t be loud in the queue. Being with a small group or alone can also help.

And if you don’t make it into Berghain, don't worry. There are plenty of other amazing clubs to explore, like Watergate or About Blank.
