Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Essence of Berlin is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of Essence of Berlin. It can read what Essence of Berlin offers. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.essenceofberlin.com/tour/all-in-one-berlin-shore-excursion-from-warnemunde-and-rostock-port (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://www.essenceofberlin.com/
- Phone: +49 176 322 67 204

## What to fix first
- Prices: 13 prices on the site, the middle one €149

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2024.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Berlin, 76% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **13 prices on the landing page, the middle one €149.** In Berlin, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is €250.

- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (TouristAttraction, Museum, TravelAgency or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business
