Poignant and Educational Tour - The Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site tour was a poignant and educational experience. It provided invaluable insight into a dark chapter of history while emphasizing the importance of remembrance and ensuring that the lessons learned are never forgotten. Our tour guide, Mark (German Mark) approach ensured that the tour remained respectful to the memory of the victims, fostering an atmosphere of reflection and remembrance among the visitors I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking a profound understanding of World War II history and the human experience during that era. It's a sombre yet necessary exploration that leaves an indelible mark on one's conscience and understanding of the past.

Informative. Learn a little about this complex and tragic episode in our history, to try to prevent it from happening again. - Very good. Matt knows the history of Dachau and respectfully managed to guide and inform us about the place and relevant historical facts.

A great tour lead by knowledgeable guide - Nicola from Radius Tours is a very knowledgeable and welcoming person. This tour ran perfectly and we didn’t have to wait around for trains/ buses ect. Lots of walking is involved, so wear comfortable shoes. Buy your snacks before venturing out as it can be costly. This tour is incredibly moving and doesn’t hold back telling the real story of Dachau - can be confronting especially if you walk through the gas chambers.

Pay very close attention to the guide - Our tour guide didn’t make a clear announcement when it was time to disembark the train so we missed the stop, and had to get off at the next station and find our way back to the city. We got a full refund but it was still disappointing to not get better care from our guide. And we didn’t see Dachau.
