We had an excellent experience with Big Hat Tours and our guide, Curt. His knowledge of Dachau’s history was truly exceptional, and he communicated everything with clarity, respect, and deep understanding. He handled the sensitivity of this difficult historical site with great care and professionalism. Highly recommend.
Tour of Dachau

Curt is very knowledgeable which made the tour great it is a difficult topic but he gave it the respect it deserves. He provided details from personal friends he has met along the way that made it that more real. This is an important tour if you are in the area and he is a great guide to lead you
Tour with Big Hat Tours to be educated and entertained!

I read many great reviews of Curt's tours before scheduling with him. My expectations were high, and he definitely exceeded them. We actually had a Munich/3rd Reich Tour and the Dachau tour with him. He personalized our Munich/3rd Reich tour to the interests of our group and educated and entertained 12 adults in their 30s and 60s. He has so many personal stories from doing exhaustive research on the history of WWII and Munich itself. Our group gave Curt the highest marks!
Dachau Tour - Outstanding beyond all expectations.

Curt is without a doubt the best guide in Munich and Southern Bavaria. Not only are his tours informative and on point, but he provides additional context and background that makes the tour personal. Our group of 8 thought his level of detail was perfect, not only when it came to the Dachau site, but the surrounding area and the role it played. Curt began the tour by showing some photos of the area, all of which added context to what we would see. His timing was perfect for the trains and bus, and helped us avoid the crowds by some strategic planning. The quality of the information Curt provides is far better than what we heard from some other guides. It's almost as if Curt has insider information. Our trip concluded with an easy ride back into Munich where we said farewell to our excellent guide. Do not hesitate to book through Big Hat Tours and Curt. You will be impressed, amazed, and better for the knowledge you will gain on the tour. Small groups or large, this is the way to see Dachau. Our group had a nice breakfast before the tour and had no need to take a break during the tour, meaning we experienced as much as possible during the time with Curt.
