What You Will Do

This tour takes you back to the West-Berlin of the 1970s by highlighting the massive changes Berlin has undergone since. By doing so the tour traces sites and places that Bowie sings about in his 2012 elegiac homage to Berlin, "Where are We Now?". Starting at Potsdamer Platz, we will then walk over to Hansa Studios. From there, we'll board the train to take us to the City West. After checking out Zoo Station we'll head towards the erstwhile location of the famous "Dschungel" followed by the KaDeWe - both of which Bowie frequently visited and therefore references in his song. Next, we'll board the train again to take a look at the gay bar Bowie used to have his nightcap in, before concluding our tour outside the building he used to call home between 1976 and 1978.
