Look no further, just choose this one - Out of all the things I experienced in Berlin, this was by far the most meaningful activity. The tour was excellent; both in terms of organization and content. Our tour guide Anja was both knowledgeable and allround great, she was able to answer all of the questions we threw at her. The group was small (=the main reason why I chose this operator and not another one), and the pace was just right. 10/10, highly recommend, would definitely do it again!

Well worth a guided tour! - Worth visiting if you are in Berlin it’s a sombre place and although the weather wasn’t great the guide was. Sarah was excellent, her passion for history and knowledge were second to none and really made the trip! It’s obviously a horrendous place but these places need to be seen to appreciate that and in the hope history never repeats. There was a lot of walking which was absolutely fine, it is obviously quite spread out. The rooms you can enter freely and see lots of detail so to do that you would probably need most of the day, however having a good guide is even better and you still get enough time to look around. There are also audio guides available.

Insightful, respectful, and engaging walking tour - Beny was an outstanding tour guide - knowledgeable, approachable, and deeply respectful of the historical significance of Sachsenhausen. He explained the complex history with clarity and sensitivity, encouraged thoughtful questions, and created a highly engaging experience throughout. The tour was thorough and insightful, covering everything I hoped to learn. I would absolutely recommend Beny and this tour to anyone visiting Berlin. Thank you for such a meaningful experience.

Amazing - The tour really emphasized the weight of this memorial. We left both horrified and deeply touched by the tour. Our tourguide Anja O. managed to give a tour for all, no matter the prior knowledge. There wasn‘t a question to which she didn‘t have an answer. Additionally, she lead the tour in a kind and appreciative way, which created a group-dynamic that reflected that.

Sachsenhausen- worth the tour - Very knowledgeable guide. Ideal group size. Would have preferred a little more time to look around and see the laundry and prison.
