Very informative. Our guide did a good job explaining how and why the Nazis came to power. How propaganda played a big role in the regime. It’s very important we learn from the past so that history doesn’t repeat itself.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He gave us a great overview on the ride to Dachau so that he could focus on specifics while on site. He also gave us time to explore on our own as well. Of course this is a very emotional tour so he allowed us time to simply "be" with the experience. He did a great job keeping us away from the large group tours so we could hear him and ask questions as needed. I highly recommend this private tour.
Keith did a fantastic job with the history; not only of Dachau but the events leading up to it and the surrounding area. He also gave some good history on the other nations who contributed to the demise of people who were imprisoned at Dachau and other camps. I learned more about this part of history from Keith in a day than ever before. Very well done and mindful of our time and desires within the tour.
This was an excellent private tour hosted by our guide Marcin. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed learning all the dark, somber history. We must never forget! I highly recommend this tour!
Markus made the tour educational, informative, and personal. He was an outstanding tour guide! I highly recommend this tour if you are looking to learn about the history, have the ability to ask questions, and gain a greater understanding of this time in history.
Aileen covered a large amount of information about Dachau and the war history in a very knowledgeable way while keeping us focused on a very serious topic. She was super friendly. The tour was well done and recommend it.
After my travel buddy opted out of the tour having been overwhelmed by our tour of Eagle’s Nest the day before, I had the ultimate pleasure of a private tour of Dachau. Keith Finneran, my guide, is a well trained guide and tailored the tour to my wishes. I have seen several concentration camps and Dachau is one of the best preserved. Along with excellent reproductions, well designed information plaques, and an extremely well informed guide, this tour exceeded my expectations. The short train and bus ride after being met at my hotel was very convenient. I continue to be impressed by Germany’s preservation and documentation of this horrific time in their recent past.
Adam was super knowledgeable and very friendly. He showed us additional sites in Munich and explained the rail system.
Markus was amazing, very knowledgeable and very attentive, Markus took his time and very detail oriented,
Enlightening and informative experience. Our guide Adam was exceptional. Simply staggering what happened here and must not be forgotten.
