What to Do on a Romantic Trip to Berlin?
The best things to do for couples in Berlin combine the buzz and energy of a modern metropolis with the raw history and grand relics of the Prussian state to create a place that’s enthralling for couples to explore together. One moment, you’ll be sipping frothy beers in the boho bars, the next checking off bucket-list landmarks.
Adventures for 2 take place on the ground, in the air and on 2 wheels, helping you move beyond the guide-book draws and really unravel the capital like a local. Blending spa visits with Baroque palaces, this list should help get your itinerary started…
1. Schloss Charlottenburg gardens
Admire centuries of history and grand Neo-Classical architecture
Categoría: Parejas, Historia, Fotos
Nothing says “I love you” like one of Europe’s grandest Rococo and Baroque palaces, right? That’s precisely what’s on offer at the glorious Schloss Charlottenburg gardens. A few hops on the U-Bahn or S-Bahn to Jungfernheide can whisk you away to this world of gorgeous vestibules and stately statues.
You don’t even have to get caught up in the great halls and court rooms within to enjoy the beauty of it all. Simply sticking to the gardens is enough, where you can wander 17th-century lawns and encounter heroic Neo-Classical sculptures.

Berlin’s New Venice offers the perfect romantic escape
Categoría: Parejas, Fotos, Opciones económicas, Aventura
Neu-Venedig, or New Venice, is an enchanting area of wooded riverways and creeks that spreads out from the banks of the Müggelsee on the south-eastern edge of Berlin. You can ride there on the S-Bahn trains via Wilhelmshagen.
You should switch to 2 wheels to really make the most of the rustic surroundings. You’ll ride through charming little brooks, where the old dachas of East German luminaries hide in the forests. Lily-topped ponds make for a great picnicking backdrop, too, while the resident swans are always there to offer a welcome.
3. The German Spy Museum
Categoría: Parejas, Familias, Historia, Viajes diferentes
Discover your inner James Bond at the German Spy Museum, an all-in-one exhibit that chronicles the years of espionage that went on right where the Berlin Wall once stood. It’s easy to access, with an entrance that comes straight off Potsdamer Platz. Then, it’s all about deciphering codes and navigating body-contorting laser rooms.
Some of the collections even take you back to the times of the ancients, to reveal how old the practice of spying actually is. You’ll also see Enigma machines, vintage Trabant cars and all sorts of Cold War relics.

Categoría: Parejas, Historia, Fotos, Gastronomía, Vida nocturna, Lujo
Forget bratwursts and beers, because date nights in Berlin are all about class and elegance, at least over in the grand Charlottenburg Palace, the greatest Baroque building in the city. Evening packages there will let you tour the art-filled court rooms of King Frederick II, before settling in for a whirlwind of creative German fine-dining.
Meals are hosted in the beautiful Great Orangery and set to the accomplished classical tunes of Bach and Mozart, played masterfully by the Berlin Residence Orchestra. Vegetarian meals are available on request.

5. Mauerpark Flea Market
Practice your haggling skills and pick up some Berlin merchandise
Categoría: Parejas, Compras, Gastronomía, Opciones económicas
Exploring the Mauerpark Flea Market has long been a favorite pastime for Berlin’s bargain hunters. It erupts every Sunday on Eberswalder, creating a ramshackle patchwork of second-hand clothes stalls, retro crockery and furnishings, old vinyl records and cool, quirky antiques. Locals can often be seen indulging in a little rocking karaoke on the lawns nearby. Thera are also clusters of food stalls that serve sizzling sausages to fuel those haggling sessions and cold beers – the hair of the dog from the Saturday before, perhaps?

6. Clärchen’s Ballhaus
This vintage Berlin ballroom with grand interiors hosts regular dance lessons
Categoría: Parejas, Vida nocturna, Lujo
You can twist the tango and stamp the bolero in the vintage dancehall of Clärchen’s Ballhaus. Dating all the way back to 1913, it’s one of the most venerable showbiz staples in the capital, with a prime location just around the corner from the Oranienburger Straße S-Bahn and tram station. With your travel compadre in your arms, you’ll learn to do the waltz and step the cha-cha, all with some of the best choreographers Berlin has to offer. And if you’d prefer not take to the stage? A visit to see the mirrored ballroom and outdoor beer garden promises to be fun regardless.

Looming high above Anhalter Bahnhof right by the Landwehr Canal, its UFO-like architectural shell helps to create interesting spaces within, filled with nooks and crannies where you can find private moments to soak in the thermal baths.
The all-nude policy is said to add to the feeling of weightlessness and relaxation that’s created by the ambient DJ tunes and lighting effects throughout.

8. Prenzlauer Berg
Explore Berlin’s wilder side after dark
Categoría: Vida nocturna
Ever since the reunification of the capital in 1990, the area of Prenzlauer Berg has filled the role of the gritty nightlife hub. It spreads roughly northwards from Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, with blocks that are filled with Communist-era tenements and post-industrial relics.
The whole lot has been gentrified and now pulses with beating EDM clubs, smoky jazz bars and lively beer halls. Start your night in the boho cocktail joints of Winsviertel before moving north, where there are oodles more drinking holes.

9. Insel der Jugend
A tiny island with trails, activities, and a beer garden
Categoría: Parejas, Familias, Vida nocturna, Aventura
Make your way to the Insel der Jugend for a romantic afternoon of walking and picnicking or for a fun night out with live music. It’s aptly named the “island of youth”, thanks to its fun and cool vibe. The island is only accessible by a small footbridge so it is uniquely free of motorized vehicles. Relax on a beach chair next to the water and sip a cold beer, and feel like you’re far away from the city.
You’ll appreciate the activities available on Insel der Jugend. These include stand-up paddleboarding and canoes available for rent, and there are also regular poetry readings, movie showings, and concerts. The beer garden is open from spring through early autumn, with themed weekend parties and entertainment.
