Had an incredible tour of Sachsenhausen with Claudia. Her wealth of knowledge is amazing - packed with fascinating stories, personal accounts, and extra historical detail that kept us completely hooked the entire time. She brings great warmth, personality, and humor to the day while keeping the tour deeply respectful and impactful. An absolute must-do experience, would 100% recommend her to anyone!
We had an amazing day with Roshana guiding us throughout the day. The tour was certainly thoughtful and well explained throughout the day by Roshana, was thought provoking and well managed for the duration of the tour. Thank you Roshana for your hard work and tour.
We did the tour of the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp on the 9th August. We were so happy to have had Roshana look after us today. Her knowledge of WW2, the holocaust, the camp itself and general history around it were outstanding. She was so passionate about everything she said. Thank you so much Roshana for sharing your insights with us today. The camp itself is extremely interesting from start to finish. Well worth a visit.

Amazing the guide Anna made this tour easier and she was so insightful and helpful! Thank you from us all :)
It was a great tour with Claudia! She knew a lot about history and was really clear. It was a really interesting day, we learned a lot!
The walking tour of Sachsenhausen was an incredible experience. We were so lucky to have Roshana as our tour guide. She was unbelievably knowledgeable and set a great pace for our group. She allowed us ample time to explore some areas of the concentration camp on our own but also made sure we stayed together every time we transitioned from place to place. Roshana even made a pitstop so my sister and I could buy umbrellas! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to properly honor a significant part of Germany’s history.
