'''Berlin Byways''' is a race course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It is based on [[Berlin]], the capital city of {{wp|Germany}}. It has three routes, named Berlin Byways,  '''Berlin Byways 2''', and '''Berlin Byways 3'''. The first route made its debut in the [[Metropolitan Tour]], the second debuted in the [[Berlin Tour]], and the third debuted in the [[Anniversary Tour (2022)|2022 Anniversary Tour]]. The course visits various landmarks of the city it is based on, including a section featuring the [[Berlin Wall]] with [[Whomp]]s filling the gaps as obstacles (possibly in reference to {{wp|fall of the Berlin Wall|its fall in 1989}}), and the streets of the city leading into the {{wp|Berlin Hauptbahnhof}} train station. The third variant is the first course in ''Mario Kart Tour'' to have moving traffic consisting of [[Car (obstacle)|cars]] and [[truck]]s. Additionally, the third route's starting line is in a different location compared to the other two. Despite being labeled as the second route, Berlin Byways 2 debuted more than a year before Berlin Byways did. This marks the first instance of a city course's layouts being released out of numerical order. The first route starts in the opposite direction compared to the other two.

The music for this course consists of {{wp|techno}} or {{wp|Electronic music|electronic}} music, which soon transitions into {{wp|Orchestra|orchestral}} music. Additionally, the opening of the orchestral portion of the song resembles the opening for Germany's national anthem, “{{wp|Deutschlandlied}}”.

Berlin Byways returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' downloadable content. It is the first course of the [[Moon Cup]], and was added in the third wave of the DLC. It has received significant visual upgrades compared to its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour''. The cars from Berlin Byways 3 return in this version of the course, and follow the same path they did in that route, making this the second course in the pass with traffic, after {{classic-link|DS|Shroom Ridge}}, and the second course in the series altogether to feature traffic that doesn't follow the route of the entire course, after [[Mushroom City]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. They now use the same designs as the vehicles seen in {{classic-link|N64|Toad's Turnpike}} and <small>DS</small> Shroom Ridge, meaning that the pickup truck that holds the Piranha Plant from Berlin Byways 3 does not return, instead every pickup truck has a surfboard. Additionally, all cargo trucks and surfboard trucks have coins on top. The music now features clapping throughout the opening portion, and additional higher pitched synths were also added. The brass instruments are also more audible and pronounced, and a flute was added to the orchestral segment.

The first lap is based on Berlin Byways 2, making Berlin Byways the first ''Tour'' city course in the Booster Course Pass to not have the first lap be based on its first route (the other being {{classic-link|Tour|Madrid Drive}}). Racers start next to the {{wp|Berlin Cathedral}}, facing towards the [[Brandenburg Gate]]. After the race begins, they drive under it; there are currently only [[Item Box]]es beneath it, but this will change throughout the race. Afterward, they merge into traffic on the {{wp|Straße des 17. Juni}} heading straight for the {{wp|Berlin Victory Column}} before taking a right turn around it. At this point, the traffic takes another right through an [[arrow field]], while players instead turn left into the train station. The train can still be driven through, and the Item Box inside is now a Double Item Box. From here, players drive past the {{wp|Berlin Cathedral}} and return to the starting line.

The third and final lap is based on the first route of Berlin Byways. Racers turn right and pass the [[Berlin Wall]]. Unlike in ''Tour'', the Whomps have now left cracks in the road where they land. Players then drive either way around the {{wp|Schiller Monument (Berlin)|Schiller Monument}} before going through the Tiergarten. Players end the race by going against traffic on the Straße des 17. Juni again, going under the Brandenburg Gate (which now only has Thwomps), and crossing the finish line.

The minimap has been rotated approximately 120° clockwise. The peninsula used for Berlin Byways 2T is now blocked off by fences and has been removed from the minimap, and the course uses an unused road connecting the Schiller Monument to the Brandenburg Gate, making Berlin Byways the second/third ''Tour'' city course to include roads that were unused at the time of their appearance in the Booster Course Pass, after [[Tour Sydney Sprint|Sydney Sprint]] and alongside [[Tour London Loop|London Loop]]. Like London Loop, the previously unused road in this course was never used in ''Tour'' prior to new content for it concluding.
