Jamie is knowledgable and an excellent guide. we went in with a little knowledge and came out with much. Definately recommend the tour with Jaimie.
It is so important to see and having a very knowledgeable guide like we did makes this tour so much more impactful. I'm not sure I would have gotten as much out of the experience without the guide to lead the way, set the time and educate. Everyone should do this tour.
This was an incredible experience and our tour guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend.
Jamie was amazing. Knowledgeable, answered our questions and was timely. I would highly recommend it!
Fantastic tour , guide was excellent and answered any questions you had and looked after you from the meet up point till the end
This extraordinary visit to this evil Dachau Concentration Camp was masterfully guided by Scott. Very professional and knowledgeable, Scott navigated the factual and emotional visit with skill and respect. An unforgettable tour of a lifetime.
Informative tour of a historical site that was respectful of the history of the area. We learned a lot!
We met the guide at the agreed spot. He took over from there. Transportation to and from Dachau was provided and the guide explained everything perfectly.
Even though it’s a heavy subject, it would only be worth it if you’re a history buff. I left appreciating how well the German embrace their history and will remember this place forever when I complain about my first world problems. If you want to read everything, skip the tour guide and wander on your own. For me, the tour was info overload and too long but I took pictures of textures (stone, brick, etc.) that will be a good art project.
Was a great tour I would recommend you do this. Is a real eye opener. Scott the tour guide was very knowledgeable.
