Chilling, eye-opening & educational - What a moving experience. The depth of Curt’s knowledge made the entire time so real. We hung on every word. It is a chilling place, not to be taken lightly, and to be able to have access to the history that led to this horrible time was really a blessing. Curt is personable and constantly checking the “temp” of our group- whether to go deeper or not. We truly appreciated his time with us and all he’s learned. I can’t recommend him enough.

Munich and Dachau in two days - Really enjoyed my tours with Curt. I'm doing research for a book and it entered on Dachau. In addition to that, Curt showed me around the old city and took in elements of the Third Reich Tour. A very knowledgeable guy who always backs up stories with a huge library of photos on his iPad. Highly recommend this guy if you want to really know the history of Munich and especially if you go on the Dachau tour.

Touring Dachau Concentration Camp - Our tour with Curt was exceptional. His knowledge of the history of the atrocities that occurred at Dachau is extensive. He's charismatic and highly skilled at presenting that story. His knowledge of the period and the factors that led to WW2 and the holocaust brought the story of Dachau into the proper historical context. You can not go wrong by booking a tour with Curt.

Dachau experience like no other! - We spent our second day in Munich on a tour with Curt in Dachau. We took a train and bus with Curt to the camp. His knowledge of the history was extraordinary! We had a close family connection to the camp and while it was difficult to see and hear about the atrocities that took place here, it was important to share in this experience. Curt answered all questions with details and information we would have never known…we are so appreciative of his time. An amazing tour!

Curt is the best! - I used Curt for two different tours seven years ago and he did an exemplary job. I called on him once again in April 2024 for the Munich City and Dachau tours. Once again, I was blown away by the level of his knowledge, compassion and enthusiasm that he showed to us on both tours. He is truly an expert in his field! I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for the best tour guide of Munich and Dachau to reach out to Curt. He is simply the best!

Knowledgeable and interesting experience - Just completed 2 tours with Curt Milburn from Big Hat Tours. Dachau in depth and 3rd Reich. Contacted Curt through the reviews on Tripadvisor and was not disappointed. Curt was flexible in fitting the tours in our tight schedule. He responded immediately to my emails and continued contact upto our tours. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate on the parts Hitler, Munich, Dachau and Germany played in the Second World War . We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Curt and left with a greater understanding of these times in history. I have no hesitation in recommending Curt Milburn and Big Hat Tours for anyone visiting Munich.

Excellent and informative Dachau tour - The Big Hat Dachau tour was a highlight of our time in Munich. Curt was easy to connect with pre-tour, even when I had a last minute change. His knowledge of this era of history was evident, and we really appreciated how he was able to adjust the tour to our questions and interests. We never felt rushed. Others had mentioned his iPad with old photos and we also found this to be very interesting. Everyone in our small group learned something new - even the person that had visited Dachau 3 times before. Thanks Curt!
