Very informative tour - Highly recommend it - Tom was an amazing tour guide for the day. Very dignified and respectful of the sensitivity of the site, extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and considerate to the group. We walked away sombre but equally well informed. Highly recommend this tour and you'll be enjoying it even more if you're lucky to get Tom as the tour guide. Thank you Tom!

Well worth the time! - Natalie was a very knowledgeable guide. She answered every question we had, and perfectly paced the tour. Learned many new things that are not taught in history books. A very moving tour. Highly recommend both the tour and the guide.

Informative and Eye Opening Experience - This was a memorable and emotional experience. Our guide Tom was amazing! He was so helpful, patient, informative and kind. He helped us all get the appropriate train ticket and get on the train to the concentration camp. He walked us through the camp and was detailed on the history behind each location.I would highly recommend going here with a guide as you get more out of the experience. Tom definitely met our expectations in enlightening us on the history.

Great tour ! - It’s my second time on a tour having Rebecca as a tour guide. She’s an amazing guide, not only that she’s extremely knowledgeable , passionate about her work , also took good care of her guests. Highly recommend if you are not too sensitive to this topic …as it will be hours of being exposed to the stories , pictures , torture materials and be at the scenes.
