Since Flytrippers currently (and often) has flight deals for Berlin, we thought you would enjoy some inspiration for your next trip. Here’s my personal suggestion: visit Berlin!
The German capital city is often featured on Flytrippers’ flight deals page, around $450 roundtrip from Toronto and Montreal and a bit more from other Canadian cities.
As I said in a previous blog post, Berlin is a diverse and vibrant city. Mixing nature and city, history and modernity, culture and nightlife, every type of traveler can find interesting activities.
Here are 12 pics to convince you to choose Berlin as your next travel destination.

The name says it all. Berlin has an island dedicated to museums. Here you can see the Alte Nationalgalerie. Photo source: Laurent Charbonneau
Potsdam
Not exactly in Berlin, but still near it. Potsdam is the capital of the Brandenburg province that surrounds Berlin. The city is known for its many gardens and palaces. Photo source: Alice Boisvert

This villa once belonged to the famous German painter Max Liebermann. It has now been converted to a museum inside and a café on the outside. Photo source: Laurent Charbonneau
Lustgarten
The Lustgarten, on Museum Island, is a wonderful place to relax in the middle of the city. It is directly between museums and the Berlin Cathedral. Photo source: Laurent Charbonneau

The Reichstag
Home of the German democracy, the Reichstag is a beautiful building to visit. You can go on its rooftop to see its surroundings, including the Brandenburg Gate, walk to the top of its dome or look down through the glass floor directly to the German Parliament. Photo source: Laurent Charbonneau

The Urban Spree is the center of Berlin’s alternative culture and is world-famous for its vibrant nightlife. Photo source: Laurent Charbonneau
