Would anyone be down to be apart of a 3-4 person travel group to hang out in Berlin, other locations in Germany or other countries for a spring/summer holiday?

Looking for some new friends who are interested in travel. I myself am 25 (M) from the UK ideally looking for folks around my age who'd be down for a holiday in Europe together.
We'd make a WhatsApp or discord or whatever to hang out, play games and plan the trip.
I'm down to spend time in Berlin or other places in Germany as well as multiple other countries if you'd like.
I'm not interested in a tour guide but more so just new friends to hang out with who are also interested in travel.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, hit me up with a PM.
honestly theres a decent chance youll find travel buddies just by hanging out at the hostel bars in Berlin like the one at Circus or Generator, tons of people in their mid 20s passing through with loose plans. if you're more into the gaming side, the Berlin Board Game Night at Cafe Mauerplatz on wednesdays has a mixed crowd that often ends up talkin about trips to Prague or the baltic coast. just show up with a six-pack and mention you're lookin for a crew, people are pretty open to it.
I've seen a few groups like this form through the Berlin Social Club on Discord, it's pretty active and people are constantly pitching weekend trips to Leipzig or Hamburg. If you're based in Berlin already, the Thursday night meetups at Mauerpark flea market in summer are a good way to find other travelers who are open to spontaneous plans. Just bring a blanket and some beers and you'll probably run into someone who's already heading somewhere the next weekend.
There is a good number of English-speaking meetups in Berlin focused on travel, especially around Kreuzberg and Neukolln. You might find it easier to just swing by one of those in person to scope out people who already have the same itch to plan trips, rather than building a group from scratch online. The bar Hopfen & Malz in Friedrichshain has a casual expat crowd on weeknights where people talk about exactly this kind of thing.

Mitte is Berlin's historic and tourist-friendly heart, packed with landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island. Expect higher prices, with mid-range hotels averaging 150-250 euros per night. It's ideal for sightseers who want to walk to major attractions.
🍻 Kreuzberg for Nightlife
Kreuzberg is the epicenter of Berlin's alternative scene, with countless bars, clubs, and street food markets. Hostels and budget hotels start around 40-80 euros per night, while boutique options run 100-180 euros. It's perfect for partygoers and those who love a gritty, creative vibe.
🌳 Prenzlauer Berg for Families
Prenzlauer Berg offers leafy streets, playgrounds, and a relaxed atmosphere centered around Mauerpark and Kulturbrauerei. Family-friendly apartments and hotels cost 120-200 euros per night. It's a top choice for travelers with kids who want quiet evenings and good cafes.
💻 Friedrichshain for Digital Nomads
Friedrichshain combines coworking spaces like Betahaus with a lively social scene along Warschauer Strasse. Monthly apartment rentals for nomads range from 800 to 1,500 euros. The area offers fast internet and easy access to the S-Bahn and U-Bahn.
💰 Neukölln for Budget Travelers
Neukölln is a multicultural, up-and-coming district with affordable hostels from 25 euros per night and cheap street food along Weserstrasse. It's less polished than Mitte but full of character and local life. Budget-conscious travelers will find great value here.
🚇 Getting Around Berlin
Berlin's public transit (U-Bahn, S-Bahn, trams, buses) is efficient and covers all neighborhoods. A single ticket costs 3.50 euros, while a day pass is 9.90 euros. Most areas are well-connected, so you can stay slightly outside the center and still explore easily.
🏠 Hidden Gem: Schöneberg
Schöneberg offers a quieter, residential feel with charming streets and the famous Winterfeldtplatz market. Hotels here are often 20-30% cheaper than in Mitte, averaging 90-130 euros per night. It's great for travelers who want local vibes without the tourist crowds.
The guide gets Prenzlauer Berg right for families but doesn't mention how good it is for solo travelers who want quiet. I stayed near Helmholtzplatz for a week and loved having the U2 line right there, it's about 12 minutes to Alexanderplatz. The Saturday flea market at Mauerpark gets packed but the food stalls are worth fighting through the crowd, especially the Turkish gozleme stand near the back. Just know that finding a grocery store open past 8pm in Prenzlauer Berg can be a hassle, so stock up early.
I stayed in Schöneberg on my last visit and it was the right call. The morning market at Winterfeldtplatz on Saturdays is worth planning around. You can grab fresh produce and a crepe for breakfast, then walk to U-Bahn Nollendorfplatz in about five minutes. Mitte is only ten minutes by train but the neighborhood feels genuinely local.
solid breakdown, i'd add that the Schöneberg mention is spot-on but the guide leaves out how good the U1 line is for getting around. from Nollendorfplatz you're at Warschauer Strasse in like 10 minutes and Kottbusser Tor in maybe 6, so you can hit both Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain without a transfer. my partner and i stayed near Akazienstrasse last year and paid 95 a night for a quiet room with a balcony, way better value than anything in Mitte. the Akazienstrasse itself has a couple of great italian delis and a small cinema that shows english-language films, worth a lazy afternoon
