Markus is Exceptional

5.00Markus was extremely knowledgeable and for us, really set the context by starting from what you would think are the basics, but in fact it’s amazing at how you are forced to think about what a democracy is and what democracy means, and the fragility of democracy. It was a fantastic way to lay the framework for a very somber visit. There are so many details that my husband and I had not known and had it not been for this private experience, we probably might never have known. Markus exudes the heaviness of his experiences and shares personal stories and his vast research on Dachau and the Nazi concentration camps. We very much appreciated his story telling, the visuals that he has, and being open to many questions. We highly recommend this tour with Markus for anyone who wants more information than just what the museum offers. The memorial to all those who were taken is a small way to honour those who faced unspeakable horrors. Let history never repeat itself! Thank you Markus for giving back and doing such an important service.

5.00Our guide, Tom, did a fantastic job providing the history of how the camp evolved and how it became the template for the other camps. It was very educational and the experience, sombering. We highly recomend this tour and Tom.
Wise and compassionate guide made our trip to Dachau very special.

5.00Mathew was such an excellent guide. He was very thoughtful, knowledgeable, and also compassionate as he discussed a very difficult topic. We learned so much from him and found the tour to be highly educational and meaningful.
