    Markus was a fantastic guide! The entire museum (exception of the basement) is all in German. Markus selected various interesting sections of the museum and explained them all in depth. He did an amazing job answering questions and gave us time at the end to explore on our own. My kids (ages 14 and 10) were even asking questions and said they got a lot out of it. Highly recommend.

    Michael was a great guide, the tour was informative yet personal since it was just us. He built a story and took us to all the places that linked the story. It was quite a bit of walking but Michael was patient. Book with Michael
