Nemo 07:15, 14 March 2011 (UTC) (perhaps tour 3? if it isn't anti-communist propaganda...)[reply]
Well, that's more or less the problem. ;o) My parents who lived a bit longer in the GDR than me found a lot of mistakes. But I can understand that this museum may be the most interesting one for non-Germans. And it will not as much time as the other ones. —DerHexer (Talk) 10:35, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
--FiliP ██ 11:04, 17 March 2011 (UTC) Let me get this straight. All of these would be listed, except the places marked with "tour" (where only one of the tours would be made)?[reply]
We will see all of them but will visit only a few. Some are obligatory and three of them facultative. And you can decide which of them you want to visit. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 12:19, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks. (And that is supposed to be "visited", instead of "listed".) I think tour 3 works best for me. ;) --FiliP ██ 00:35, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Helo, what kind of tour that we can join if we arrive at 10.45am at Berlin Tegel Airport. Thank you Mariyanah 16:11, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Unluckily, you have not set a mail address, so I don't know whether you will see my response here or not. We will be at Potsdamer Platz at midday but it's hard to meet there. Either you set a mail address and send me a wiki mail, or you can use wikipedia_emails-nachfrage AT yahoo DOT de' so that I can send you my phone number and possible meeting points. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 19:50, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Set a mail address: DONE! Thank you Mariyanah 15:32, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
