If you're visiting Berlin during the summer, a fantastic way to see the city is by bike. Berlin is a cyclist's paradise - most main roads have a cycle path and the vast majority of motorists treat cyclists with respect rather than disdain - meaning that unlike many other capital cities, cycling in Berlin is an enjoyable rather than life-threatening experience.

Bikes can be hired at affordable daily rates from a number of places, including Bikecity, Fahrradstation and FaMoS. You could either follow the above-mentioned tours or simply make up your own route as you go. Before you head off, buy a Falk Plan, an ingeniously folded street map readily available from any kiosk, paper shop or bookstore.

A less strenuous alternative is to let someone else do the peddling. A recent addition to Berlin's streets, the Velo-Taxis - a kind of modern-day rickshaw - carry two people and can be picked up around Ku'damm or Unter den Linden. The driver will happily take you on a tour through the city centre and the Tiergarten area.
