Itinerary

Your full-day trip to the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site starts in the morning. Your driver will meet you directly at your area hotel; round-trip, private transit takes all the hassle out of getting there and gives you time and space to reflect. Aboard your comfortable vehicle, you’ll embark on a smooth journey to the World War II landmark.

Upon arrival at Dachau, join a combined tour group for a comprehensive journey through the site. Your tickets to the landmark have already been pre-booked, so you’ll head in without difficulty or delay.

As you explore Dachau, your guide will share the dark history of this concentration camp, the first established under Hitler. Learn more about its past than what you could discover on your own, and pay tribute to the hundreds of thousands of people who were interred and killed here.

At the end of the tour, you’ll return to your private vehicle. Return directly to your area hotel, where this moving experience ends.

Eye opening. We had a terrific guide that took us through the history of Dachau. Very glad we selected this tour.

Review details carefully ask for audio guide

Lisa_W, May 2024

Thank you for the tour. We enjoyed the private transport to Dachau and tge information provided during the drive. Our guide was professional, friendly and on time. Regarding the actual tour at the concentration camp. This portion is not private, it is with an extremely large group 50-60 people. This made it very difficult to learn the history of Dachau. Would recommend in the future to provide audio guide and allow people to tour on their own.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Thanks for your review, but at the description inform all that the group tour is max 30 person not 60 person. I will start to offer a audio guide together the live tour for maybe in the future doesn’t have that’s issue not anymore

Mark_S, May 2024

Very humbling tour of a place no human should have ever been subjected to. Guide was informative. Tour was unexpectantly cancelled by the museum through no fault of the booking agency but the headphone tour was fine. Got to move at our own pace.

Visit Dachau to learn from our past

marty0849, May 2023

Learned so much about the history of Dachau and holocaust details. Was pleasantly surprised that the tour was not grisly or depressing-historical, timely, and we must learn from the past to protect our futures. Viator should have explained we would have been part of a larger tour group at Dachau. Private tour was transportation only; Rob was fantastic. He gave us information on the area history that enhanced our Dachau experience.

Excellent customizable tour

Stephanie_L, Oct 2022

Excellent customized pick up/ drop off with Suzart Tours. Driver, Seba did a great job getting us to and from our port in Regensburg. The Memorial site is well planned out with indoor exhibits, a movie and a free tour of the grounds with a knowledgeable guide. Very sobering although vital as we must never forget!

Dachau trip

Mary_M, Aug 2022

Our driver was very good and we enjoyed our trip with him. But I do have to say on Viator’s ad it said it would be just our group and our guide. We were disappointed to be put with a group of over 30 people to tour Dachau with no microphones or boxes to hear. I would suggest you be clearer that the only private part of the “tour” is the ride. That said our guide at Dachau was exceptional and we were grateful that despite being seeing online that our particular date was full we called and the Viator rep went out of his way to get us in. So thank you!!

Best way to visit Dachau from Nuremberg!

Tiffany_A, Aug 2021

Robson showed up early for pickup and provided information during the drive to Dachau. It was definitely worth doing the trip this way—trying to take the train to Munich and then going to Dachau would have been too much. Robson took very good care of us while we were at Dachau. He saw that my elderly mother was having trouble walking and procured a wheelchair for her use. He also obtained audio guides, guided us to the film at the documentation center, and arranged for us to join one of the tours in English. In addition, we told him we needed to purchase train tickets from Nuremberg to Regensburg to join our cruise and he offered todo the transfer himself for a very reasonable price. For pickup to Regensburg, he was again waiting for us when we were ready to go. Robson took very good care of us and I highly recommend him. He is Brazilian and very friendly.

Thanks Tiffany, I wish you an amazing River Cruise

Great tour, great guide

Brandon_C, Dec 2019

Rob is a great guide, flexible and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. The tour at Dachau was very informative and interesting. Warning - visiting Dachau is very emotionally draining. I would recommend this tour to anybody.
