Historic Dachau
en3phone, Apr 2025
Interesting to hear history of Dachau prior to 1933. Originally used for political prisoners, who where feed, had Sundays off and were eventually released. WE11 prisoners were not so fortunate.
Dachau with Sam, a Great Way to Learn

Sam provided a fantastically informative and appropriately sober discussion of the Dachau experience. I would highly recommend Sam.
Excellent guided tour

We deeply appreciated Sam’s straightforward and moving tour of Dauchau Concentration Camp. His knowledge of the site and of the broader scope of history was impressive and we left with a better understanding of the past and the present.
A touching and impactful experience
Angelicamt, Apr 2025
This is an important tour - a way to learn about and honour the victims of the Dachau concentration camp. It is a sobering, touching and thought-provoking experience. We had an excellent guide, Aileen, who kept us on track while sharing a wealth of information and insights with us at a steady pace. I would recommend this tour to anyone who visits Munich.
