Travel Tips

Getting around the city

Berlin has a public transport, running day and night. During the week, only buses operate at night. If you don’t buy a ticket, be careful. Ticket controllers can enter the trains – they don’t necessarily wear a uniform.
Arriving from the airport? You need a ticket that includes the C-Area! (A is central Berlin, B peripheral Berlin, C outside the city).
For the rest of the stay, AB will be fine – we usually don’t go to C-Bereich 😛

If you are rolling under 72mm, we recommend using a bicycle to get around town. Best bike rental in town (used to be 4 € a day)

If you want to be flexible with your vehicles like a true cosmopolitan, we can also recommend the app „Jelbi“ which includes the public transport ticket, but also many kinds of shared mobility services – cars, bikes or e-scooters.

Skate Shop

This is Soul just opened a branch in Berlin, collaborating with T. Store.
You find it in Prenzlauer Berg, Danziger Straße 31, here.
They always have basics in stock – if you need something specific you can also preorder at This is Soul.

Spots

For street spots you can follow the Spotspatz – some of the posts even have a location tag. You may check this page (not blader-owned) as well.

For skateparks, there is a brochure with almost all the parks, curated by our beloved Skateboard Verein.
Our favorite DIY is Greifi.
New skateparks have opened in Charlottenburg and Lichtenberg.

Another special mention: If you have a bit more time in Berlin, check out the newly built Spade Bowl in Potsdam. It is a massive DIY bowl with an exquisite pool coping. You will find it here. (why not visit a lake after?)

Refreshments & Intoxication

Berlin is full of bars and Spätis (little corner shops) open all day and night, mostly. It is legal to drink alcohol in the street Smoking weed is legal in places that don’t explicitly forbid it. Follow your instinct.

Sleeping

No secret tips, unfortunately. Airbnb prices have skyrocketed and hostels are hostels.
