Overview

Dachau is one of the most well preserved camps in all of Europe and a visit to a camp should be on every travelers itinerary. Dachau was the first camp set up in NAZI Germany, was the model for all other camps and was the only camp running for the entire 12 years of the Third Reich. This authorized full tour of the Dachau Memorial is a half day tour traveling via train from Munich at 9:00 and arriving back approximately 14:00. Your guide will not only explain in detail the horrors of the camp system but the plight of the various victims that suffered under this brutal system of murder and oppression, the rise of the NAZI party and many other events that took place throughout the 3rd Reich and World War 2. As we are a small independent company we go above and beyond to give our guests a memorable experience. Our small group tours have a maximum number of 18 guests per tour ensuring a personable experience.

Meeting points

Our group tour meets at the centrally located Marienplatz underneath the tower of the Old Town Hall (Altes Rathaus). Underneath the tower you will see the Spielzeug Museum and the Juliet Statue. Here you will find your guide. This location is very easy to find and accessible from all over Munich

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Our guide James did an excellent job with a difficult topic. He did not sugar coat the atrocities but did a great job helping you understand the times and situation.

James was an excellent guide, informative and sensitive to the victims stories. He was very accomodating of our group, and we could hear him well despite the group size of <20 ppl.

Moving experience

Published on Dec, 2024

James was an unbelievable guide. He handled this delicate topic with grace and respect and his knowledge was truly impressive. He answered any and every question we had for him and his expertise was paramount to the moving experience we had at Dachau. He also handled all the logistics like a pro, keeping track of everyone on the train and bus. My family and I cannot say enough wonderful things about James!
