Arrival

By plane:

Most of our young guests arrive unaccompanied by plane. We offer a bus transfer service to Berlin-Wannsee for students arriving between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. (A wait may be necessary.) Students will be met by a staff member at the airport Meeting Point. He/she will be easy to spot, wearing a yellow T-shirt and holding up the Goethe Institute sign. Please inform us in writing of your arrival time and your flight number no later than three weeks before the start of your course. For the bus transfer from the airport to Berlin and back, there is a one-off fee of € 40. Please have this amount ready on arrival. On your departure date, the Goethe Institute staff will accompany you until you check in at the airport.

If you book a flight that arrives after 6 p.m., the taxi fare will be approximately € 40, depending on the airport where you land.

By train:

Take the S7 S-Bahn line (towards Postdam) to the Wannsee station, and then take a taxi to the Wannsee Forum (approx. € 10).

By car:

On the A115 autobahn at the Dreilinden rest stop (Zehlendorf exit), take the first exit towards Wannsee, Potsdamer Chaussee. Follow Königstraße until Hohenzollernstraße comes up on the left-hand side (at the Schröder/Schreibwaren shop).
