Additional Information

A few weeks following Adolf Hitler’s appointment as Reich Chancellor on March 22, 1933, Dachau became the site of a concentration camp for political prisoners. This camp established the blueprint for all future concentration camps and served as a ‘training ground for brutality’ for the SS officers in charge. During its twelve-year span, over 200,000 individuals from across Europe were detained here and in its various satellite camps. Of these, 41,500 were killed. On April 29, 1945, the remaining survivors were freed by American forces.

At the Dachau concentration camp, a knowledgeable guide will provide a private tour for your group.

Would recommend - Very humbling tour of a place no human should have ever been subjected to. Guide was informative. Tour was unexpectantly cancelled by the museum through no fault of the booking agency but the headphone tour was fine. Got to move at our own pace.

Visit Dachau to learn from our past - Learned so much about the history of Dachau and holocaust details. Was pleasantly surprised that the tour was not grisly or depressing-historical, timely, and we must learn from the past to protect our futures. Viator should have explained we would have been part of a larger tour group at Dachau. Private tour was transportation only; Rob was fantastic. He gave us information on the area history that enhanced our Dachau experience.

Excellent customizable tour - Excellent customized pick up/ drop off with Suzart Tours. Driver, Seba did a great job getting us to and from our port in Regensburg. The Memorial site is well planned out with indoor exhibits, a movie and a free tour of the grounds with a knowledgeable guide. Very sobering although vital as we must never forget!

Excellent Job customizing the tour - Everything went as planned from pick up to drop off. The driver was prompt and did a great job getting us to and from our river cruise port. We always received prompt replies via email when planning and confirming our trip. The Memorial site is very well planned with a movie, exhibits and a walking tour with a guide.

Dachau trip - Our driver was very good and we enjoyed our trip with him. But I do have to say on Viator’s ad it said it would be just our group and our guide. We were disappointed to be put with a group of over 30 people to tour Dachau with no microphones or boxes to hear. I would suggest you be clearer that the only private part of the “tour” is the ride. That said our guide at Dachau was exceptional and we were grateful that despite being seeing online that our particular date was full we called and the Viator rep went out of his way to get us in. So thank you!!

Review details carefully ask for audio guide - Thank you for the tour. We enjoyed the private transport to Dachau and tge information provided during the drive. Our guide was professional, friendly and on time. Regarding the actual tour at the concentration camp. This portion is not private, it is with an extremely large group 50-60 people. This made it very difficult to learn the history of Dachau. Would recommend in the future to provide audio guide and allow people to tour on their own.

An easy way to get to Dachau - Make sure you read all of the description. The title says private tour, but when you get to Dachau, it is a combined tour...caught us off guard a bit. Especially for the price, I would have expected a private tour at Dachau, not just the private transfer. Saying that, the guide we had at the camp was excellent, engaged and informative, just not private. The transfer driver Rob, was great. Gave us a good rundown on relevant German history, was funny and friendly. The private car was spacious, but more truck-like than car-like in suspension. Some of the seats were quite limited in their view, so on the way out I could not see much, but I sat up the front with Rob on the way back and it was more comfortable. Still like sitting in a truck, but at least I could see what was going on.
