Berlin : KZ Sachsenhausen und Potsdam Tagestour

It was a really good experience. Peter was an excellent guide - he was knowledgeable, insightful, and very helpful.

This tour was one of the highlights of my visit to Germany. Visiting Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp was a deeply moving experience and, in my opinion, something everyone should see to better understand Germany’s history and the consequences of human intolerance. In contrast, Potsdam offered a beautiful glimpse into another side of German history, with its stunning architecture, peaceful countryside, and remarkable heritage. The entire trip was comfortable, well-organized, and enjoyable. Our driver, Michael, was excellent, and our guide, Walli , was outstanding. His knowledge, passion, and storytelling brought history to life, and I learned more about Germany in one day than I ever expected.

The sights are amazing. You’ll get great information and photo opportunities and have a fairly easy trip outside of Berlin to see some sights. Our tour guide, Waleed, was AWESOME: informative, funny, and easy going. Our chief complaint came with the tour company and overall experience. We booked the tour about six weeks out and built our itinerary around it…then, while in Amsterdam a few days out, we began receiving emails about changes in both departure time and location. Not that big of a deal for sure and we rolled with it. The morning of the tour we discovered that the tour would be bilingual (about half the bus speaking English and the other half Spanish). Again not a problem until we got in motion and realized that the two tour guides would be trading the microphone hurriedly back and forth trying to narrate the scenery. Not a deal breaker and we still had a pretty great day. But we did feel that we missed out on some sights and info because of the language barrier trade off. Overall recommend (but you may want to ensure you’re booking exactly the experience you want).

I don't think I have had any more of a good time than this. Going to Sachsenhausen really was enlightening as in a book I had read The Men With the Pink Triangle, it's author was in Sachsenhausen for half a year. To see the horrible conditions and what humans can do to another in person is a life changing experience, and our guide Matias walked us through the area with so much knowledge and respect. Sans Soussi was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Seeing these old buildings which have lasted beyond the length of my country is beautiful, and a look back into a time I could never imagine. I also enjoyed learning a small bit about German monarchs, as our guide was very knowledgeable. If I haven't said it already, I loved Matias, and I loved this trip!

Great day spent learning important history of both areas. Our guide Matias was excellent in his knowledge and invited deeper conversation. Trip was well organized.

Positive was the guide who knew a lot to tell. Less was: Little too much information for 1 day and not enough time at both locations to discover for yourself. As a result, not enough time at Sachsenhausen and not enough time for Potsdam. You also get to see 2 extremes in terms of emotion. This may bring some balance to this.

Jaime was our Spanish speaking guide, very knowledgeable and kind, answered all our questions, talked us through history and battles without showing a “side”. Concentration camp is heartbreaking but a must see, we should never forget and this should never happen again. Postdam was beautiful we were fortunate and had great weather, the palace gardens were wonderful and walking downtown was a good way to wind down after the camp. I would totally recommend this tour

Thanks to our guide Peter for a very informative and interesting trip

Good experience, the guide was very knowledgeable. The trip was on-time and very detailed. The ride back to city was even more enjoyable.

We had an excellent tour with Felipe. He gave excellent information and guided us nicely. The camp made us realise the hardship and the humiliation that the prisoners had to endure. The Potsdam is very beautiful and grand. Thank you, Felipe and the team.
