Worth every penny! - This was a great tour of strutthof. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, on time, and did a great job. We would not have had the same experience had we gone to the camp by ourselves, without the guide.

Stutthoff Tour - An absolutely brilliant tour from start to finish. We were collected from hotel in a comfortable mini bus, and the tour started straight away when Maciej shared interesting information about Gdansk and it’s history all the way to Stutthof. Maciej was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Gdansk. It cannot be easy to tour a group around a concentration camp, but Maciej did this with so much knowledge and respect. Would highly recommend this company, and will definitely be booking another tour with them when we return to Gdansk. Thanks again Maciej.

Incredibly good Norwegian-speaking guide - Very very good trip with an incredibly good guide who was incredibly knowledgeable. He started guiding right from the center of Gdańsk. He spoke incredibly good Norwegian, showed relevant books. Brought good tea for us on a cold day. Incredibly good experience.

A must do trip - A wonderful yet sobering experience brought to life by Maciej. The tour started the minute we left the hotel, with a history lesson from a gentleman clearly passionate about the history he was sharing with us. The fact it snowed during our trip only emphasised the hardship experienced by anyone entering the gates into captivity. They were treated with immense cruelty and worked or starved to death. It is a good thing that people like Maciej are here to make sure their suffering is never forgotten. Thank you so much for your time today Maciej, it was our pleasure to spend it with you.

Smooth trasnportation and very knowledgeable guide for our tour - Very straightforward pick-up and drop off at our hotel in Gdansk. Ride out was comfortable and warm. Our guide Tomasz gave us a very knowledgeable tour and was able to provide tons of backstory for the site as he led us through it and had a wealth of information and stories to share with us. Would highly recommend this tour if you are interested in the history of the site.

Amazing and professional guide - I would give 6/5 if possible. Guide was super friendly and had amazing knowledge about Gdansk and Polish history. We are from Finland and he truly gave us personalized experience by focusing on topics that are related to us. This experience was more than we could have imagined and something we will remember for the rest of our lives!

Powerful Experience and a Must-Do In the Gdańsk Area - I will admit that when we arrived at the concentration camp and the signs prominently state that entry is free, it struck me as a bit odd that this tour is so expensive. But, I quickly stopped thinking about that as our professional guide took us around the camp and gave us the highlights which went well beyond the signage and museum displays. Having previously visited Auschwitz and other larger camps, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But this camp, the longest running and the first outside of Germany, has a really unique history that, in essence continued after the war considering what the Communists did to former prisoners for whom THEY decided were “undesirable.” Sadly, it is hard to leave a place like this and think that we as people can ever embrace the mantra of never forget, never again as we have seen genocide after genocide. Still, this is an incredibly tangible piece of history that we cannot forget.
