Summary: I can't give enough stars for the fantastic day I spent touring the Berlin art scene with Insight Cities Guide Justin Polera. I was particularly interested in going to galleries I wouldn't be able to find and digging deeper into the Berlin art scene - historic and contemporary. Justin did it all! He knew everyone. Not only did we go to some of the most interesting galleries and meet with gallerists, we also stopped into some terrific shows at Hamburger Banhoff and the New National Gallery. And even though I had a strong Art History background, touring those shows with Justin was a much deeper experience. He shared stories about the many artists he knew personally and had even put together slide shows on his ipad showing the evolution of the artists we were seeing. And nothing stuffy about this art tour. Not only brilliant, Justin is also fun! We'd planned for 3 hours; we toured for 6 . What day. Don't miss it!
