Lee,
We opted out of the Berlin trip because of our temporary location here in the UK. I booked a weekend in Berlin for the first weekend in August and the cost for air and hotel (Hilton) with breakfast comes to less than the price of the excursion! We probably would have opted for the ship's tour if we did not have this choice. I am sure it would be worth it if this is your opportunity to see Berlin.
See you soon.
Cheers, Pam
