Violeta was a wonderful guide providing historical narrative and delicious foods over several hours. I wish we had done this at the beginning of our trip so we could go back to the places and neighborhoods she showed us.

Holger was an excellent guide. The food stops were paced nicely so we never felt overly stuffed. It was a nice walk but not tiring. There was plenty of culture and history along with great food.

We took the East meets West tour with Holger and had a lovely time! Holger was a great guide with a lot of knowledge of the area, and we gained many new insights into the Kreuzberg area of Berlin during the tour. Holger was friendly, engaging and had a great energy! As for the stops, we enjoyed all but did feel like the tour could have included a few more drinks. The only two drink were from a Späti (local supermarket) and a coffee near the end of the tour. It would have really added to the experience to have a drink at all the major food stops. Other than that, highly recommend!Took the east meets west tour with Holger and it was great. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. The food and drink were very good. Recommended.

My tour with Walk and Fork was moved a couple of times due to covid, both times the communication was good and I was offered alternatives. The East Meets West tour was fab and our guide Holger was enthusiastic and friendly. He was very knowledgeable and tailored the tour to the group’s preferences and the wonderful spring sunshine! All the food was delicious. By the end of the tour I was pleasantly full and I’d learnt a lot about the culture of Berlin and it’s food. I’d highly recommend both Fork and Walk and Holger. Thanks!
