Really good tour

It was really interesting, though needed more time to fully access all the information. Ok if travellers are happy to make their own way back without the guide. Our guide, Nikolai Todorov was incredibly knowledgeable and very friendly; a really good guide.

Trip back in time

The guide was excellent, information was very well presented, I must admit that the tour inside the camp is very confronting, but well worth doing, it’s a story I hope that is never repeated

Fantastic tour, out your...

Fantastic tour, out your guide Nickolai was very informative he knew everything and told us everything we needed to know, he would also answer questions when asked politely and processionally. We had a disaster with the trains and they were doing maintenance, he ensured we safely got back to the station with him even though it took three seperate trains. Amazing service, highly recommend

Sachsenhausen Tour

The Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Tour was an impactful and meaningful experience on my trip to Berlin. The tour was extremely well organized, and our guide, Campbell was knowledgeable, respectful, and passionate about sharing the history of the camp. The information was presented thoughtfully, providing important historical context while honoring the memory of those who suffered there. Walking through the grounds and hearing the personal stories brought history to life in a way that books and documentaries simply cannot. Although it is a somber experience, I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Berlin. It offers a powerful opportunity to learn, reflect, and better understand the events of the past. Thank you to our guide, Campbell for delivering such an informative and moving tour. A truly unforgettable experience.
