Wonderful, deeply emotional tour. Our guide, Greta, was so informative and respectful of the people involved. I highly recommend this tour
Informative and respectful
Helen D, Jul 2025
An excellent tour from start to finish. Our guide, Sam, was extremely knowledgeable. He succeeded in respectfully sharing the history of the camp. He carefully navigated the group through the main areas of the camp. The tour was informative, intense but incredibly worthwhile.
Feel free to take a guide.

It was very nice to be accompanied by a guide because it goes to the point while providing more explanations and can answer questions. Adam has the right tone to tell this tragic period DE history.
