Well worth the visit
christophermE4797GQ, Jul 2026
A great tour, very informative and Michael was a great guide
The whole tour was...
Andrew_C, Jul 2026
The whole tour was conducted very respectfully. Michael was extremely knowledgeable and engaged very well with the whole group. Be prepared for a fair bit of walking.
Very interesting visit, very bad guide
Attilio_C, Jul 2026
Our guide was not very friendly; sarcastic and belittling what the group had to comment. I don’t recommend her.
Nice tour of Dachau
Tina_H, Jul 2026
We appreciated having a local guide to share information about Dachau. Michael was great and VERY knowledgeable. Personally, we would have loved to have just a bit more time (maybe even just 30 min more on the total tour time) to also be able to look at the displays in the Maintenance building. Great tour overall.
