Jeff is an amazing guide who has done a lot of research on this specific topic among others. He offers one of the most unique experiences in Berlin supported by visual aids, augmented reality experiences and some music. At the same time, this is an essential experience to understand one of the very important parts of how the city was shaped and continues to be shaped. After attending his tour, I followed his social media account and I can confidently say Jeff is highly principled and super inspiring as a person committed to what Berlin as a city stands for. The world needs more of such people. Very happy to have been a part of his experience. Truly Hats off!

This was such an interesting tour offering a historical perspective on the sexual/queer subcultures throughout Berlin's history. I studied abroad in Berlin and already had a good background of the city's history and even some bits and pieces of its sexual history, but Jeff really honed in on some stories (spicy, titilating, sometimes somber, but always inspiring) that illuminated the specialness and sexiness of the city. It was all focused around Nollendorfplatz, which is also a great area to shop around if you're into fetishwear. Jeff has another tour focused on Berlin nightlife scene and I am absolutely excited to check that out next time I visit.
