5.00Markus was our guide. He did an exceptional job of explaining the history of the region as well as all that happened in Dachau. He answered all our questions and got us from our hotel to the memorial site and back. We both appreciated his approach and how well he knows the history of Dachau. Highly recommend Markus.

5.00Great tour! Markus was reliable, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He went well beyond just the basics of a tour. He helped us understand not just WHAT happened but also the HOW and WHY regarding this important and somber part of German history

5.00Scott was so knowledgeable of Dachau and the war and even Munich history. Really enjoyed our experience despite how somber a place. Not to miss!
Historically significant and very worthwhile

5.00While It’s certainly not a “feel good” experience, it is nonetheless an enlightening, historical, somber experience. Be reverent, be respectful. Our guide, Matt, was excellent. His knowledge about the site and the events that surround it are impeccable, as well as his knowledge of the time period and the world perspective at the time.

5.00It was incredibly detailed and brought out points of history and his historical significance that was previously unbeknownst to us. The guided tour was done in a very thoughtful and meaningful way and revealed things about Munich, Germany and world events you don’t get in US history textbooks. Fast paced and feels like reading a Dan Brown novel.
Wonderful Guide

5.00I cannot recommend Markus enough, he was a wonderful, knowledgeable, and well spoke guide. He did a great job driving a thought provoking conversation on a very difficult topic and our group will never forget this trip.

5.00Incredible experience. Marcus, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable. He works directly in the camp archives and has personally interviewed survivors. He is also a professor on the subject, literally teaching this history. He did an outstanding job explaining every detail and providing deep historical context throughout the tour. It was just my wife and me, which made the experience even more meaningful. He met us at our hotel and we rode the train together to the site, which added a very personal touch
Excellent private tour of Dachau

5.00Phenomal guide. Very knowledgeable. Shared the facts of the site but also their significance for today. As an American I appreciated a different view on standard narrative of WWII, how we got involved and why. My sons who was 15 appreciated how he engaged him and how knowledgeable he was. Highly recommended!
