I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to our two outstanding history tour guides in Berlin who played an integral role in the success of our educational trip. Their professionalism, deep historical knowledge and exceptional flexibility made them invaluable partners throughout the tour. They consistently demonstrated a genuine willingness to listen - not only to my suggestions as trip lead but also to the feedback from all the school staff – and readily adapted to meet the evolving needs of our students as the day went on.
