Traveler reviews
Connie was amazing!
Very thorough and plenty of time to double click on things if interest. Connie, the guide, was excellent!
A meaningful and educational experience
Our guide Sam was a wealth of information. He explained the history of Dachau but, more importantly, he really focused on what daily life was like for the incarcerated which was profoundly interesting. The details Sam provided explained things you might have known but never knew the reason for. Sam kept the tour moving along because he covered a lot of ground in the hours that we were there. I would have loved to come back after the tour to spend time looking around on my own having processed all the information from the tour. I knew the tour would be impactful both mentally and emotionally and it certainly was. It gave me a greater respect for those that suffered at the hands of the abuse of power and a deeper understanding of history
One of the absolute BEST tours we've ever done (and we've done a fair number)
Dachau itself is legendary and tells its own story. HOWEVER, our guide, Nic, was OUTSTANDING. He was like a history professor educating us along the way, pointing out subtle nuances about the political movements that allowed such a horrendous camp system to evolve. In addition to the thorough education he provided us, he was so organized in his instructions to us as we had to use public transportation (train and bus) to get there and back. We had an hour to spend in the museum after a 2 hour tour with Nic, and honestly, we could have spent a whole day there learning about the Nazi atrocities. I'm sure this tour would also have been good with another guide, but Nic was absolutely exceptional. I really don't have enough superlatives to describe the job he did. If I could give him a 10 out of 5 stars, I would!
Excellent tour and tour guide Sam
