The city opens by foot: cobblestones click underfoot and the Spree nudges past museum steps as the first audio cue begins to narrate. Walkers find themselves moving through the arc of Berlin history—from imperial promenades near the Brandenburg Gate to modern glass towers at Potsdamer Platz—guided by a professional voice in their pocket rather than a group leader.
