Quick Start Guide
The most important thing first:
Your perfect sightseeing experience at City Circle:
1. Earphones
To use our audio guide, you will of course need earphones. If you haven't already discovered them when boarding the bus, you will find them on the right-hand side of the entrance to the bus, right next to the bus driver. Natürlich kostenfrei!
2. Favorite seat
As soon as you get on the bus, you can choose your favorite seat. There are no pre-reserved seats here. To enjoy the best view, we recommend a seat in the upper part of the bus. In summer and in good weather, some of the trips take place with the roof open.
3. Connect your earphones
Plug your headphones into the connection at the top left or right of the green device on the seat in front of you or on the side. The connection is marked with a headphone symbol.
4. Audio channel
You can then select the audio channel that suits you best using the two buttons below the display. By the way: We also recommend our entertaining children's channel (KID) for adults. The abbreviations for the languages are explained here.
5. Volume
Now all you have to do is set the volume that is most comfortable for you. You can do this easily using the two buttons to the right and left of the display. Your audio tour should now be working and you're ready to go. You may have to wait briefly until the next announcement is made.
6. enjoy & share
Now you can just sit back and enjoy your ride! We wish you a fantastic tour. Feel free to share your experience with us on Facebook or Instagram: tag @bustourberlin or use #citycircleberlin. You are welcome to use our free Wi-Fi to do so.
7. Re-enter at any time
With your Best of Berlin Ticket, which is valid for at least 24 hours, you can hop on and off at any of our 20 stops during our operating hours to create your own individual sightseeing experience.
You can get your headphones free of charge from the driver at the front right of the bus entrance.
You can connect your headphones to the top right or top left of the green device at the socket marked with the headphone symbol.
You can select the audio channel using the two buttons below the display. By the way: We also recommend our entertaining children's channel (KID) for adults. We have listed and explained the abbreviations for the languages for you here.
You can adjust the volume using the two buttons to the right and left of the display.
First you should check whether your headphones are defective. Please note: There may be short pauses in our audio track between the various sights. So wait a short moment first. If you still can't hear anything, you can first try a different headphone connection at a different seat.
If the headphone connection is defective, please inform our driver or our customer service team at info@city-circle.de by e-mail.
If your headphones still don't work, you can of course pick up new headphones at the bottom of the bus at any time.
We are very sorry if there are technical problems - please excuse the inconvenience!
Yes there is! You can find it under the name "City Circle Gray Line WiFi" in your settings. Simply click on the network, confirm with the "Connect now" button - and you're online!
The best way to find the nearest stop is to use our Finder.
With our live tracker you can see where our buses are currently located on the route at any time. In our timetable you can see the planned departure times for each stop. Please note that there may be delays and deviations from the plan due to traffic.
Our buses currently run at 20 to 25-minute intervals.
If you have a combined ticket for the Best of Berlin Tour + boat, you can get off at stop 14 DomAquarée or stop 16 Unter den Linden / Friedrichstraße to change to the boat tour.
This is of course annoying. Fortunately, most of the lost items are handed in to our drivers. You can contact our lost and found office at info@city-circle.de or by telephone on +49 30 880 41 90.
If you are visiting Berlin in summer, we strongly recommend that you take sunscreen with you on your hop on hop off tour. As our buses run without a roof in summer, sunscreen or a hat can definitely come in handy.
