Definitely worth a trip. - A sobering experience, but absolutely a must do, in my opinion. Our guide Steve was very knowledgeable and very personable. He made sure we were well taken care of with food, drinks and bathroom breaks. He also stressed the universality of the horror, that it wasn’t only a German problem but a human problem, and the necessity of empathy in every day life in order to prevent such atrocities from occurring, otherwise, any one can be converted into a monster.

Excellent guide! - Paul was our guide. Punctual, engaging, scholarly. We very much appreciated his accompaniment. He was very generous in his explanations. It easily adapts to all levels of questions (16 years, parents and grandparents). We highly recommend Paul as a guide.

Sachsenhausen Camp experience - Our tour guide Julian was knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Sachsenhausen Camp. He took us through the camp with in-depth information about each area. We understood and felt the unfairness, misery and cruelty experienced here by far too many people.

Experiencing our history - Impressive and how cruel history was between 1933 and 1945 in Sachsenhausen during the German occupation. And yet beautifully passionately told by our guide Paul who led you through the front door for 3.5 hours until the final exam, the ovens and gas chamber.

Fantastic tour with a spectacular guide - Julian was my tour guide, and was a spectacular learning experience from beginning to end! Julian was very diligent in telling the stories and sharing key details and ensured we saw all of the important artifacts. This was definitely a wonderful way to see the camp and learn so much more of the stories beyond what we have read in the history books.

Our trip to Sachenhausen concentration camp. March 2024 - We had a wonderful knowledgeable tour guide who had a degree in History. Rebecca Bryant. She led us throught this tour with both professionalism and humility for the situation. My daughter and I were off course naturally moved and saddened remembering those innocents cruelly murdered. Rebecca was tollerant as I have a disability and cannot walk long distances, she went ahead and prepared everything, from buses, tubes and food. Most excellent hostess. She should be recognised for the professional job she does. Thankyou Rebecca. Alex & Lucy Parker

Helpful and knowledgeable guide - I highly recommend this tour. Paul was very knowledgeable and gave us many tips for our Berlin trip in general, including showing us how to navigate the public transport system. This is an important tour that all visitors to Berlin should take the time to do.

Tour guide main the experience - So glad we booked the tour rather than visiting Sachsenhausen unguided. Our tour guide Stephen was amazing. He was knowledgeable, friendly and covered the subject manor with respect. The meetup spot is easy to locate and it is a short train trip out to Oranienburg . From there it is a short walk to Sachsenhausen. On the way interesting spots were pointed out which we would have simply walked past on our own. Sachsenhausen is very large and if we had done it ourselves we would have run out of time to see everything. The tour covers all the main aspects and due to the train schedule you can remain behind after the tour to have a longer look around. Highly recommend and if I am in Berlin again I plan on using Birchy's Berlin tour for the city walking tour.
