A Wealth of Knowledge - I highly recommend the day tour by Alun Evans. Alun is very organized and handles all the logistics - tickets and travel - for the group. He is extremely knowledgeable and personable, & kept the group interested and engaged. He presents sensitive information in a respectful manner. Alun was happy to answer any questions asked and to suggest helpful resources, which we greatly appreciated.

Fantastic Munich walking tour! - This tour was excellent. My Mum and I spent the day with Alun in Munich doing a walking tour and trip to Dachau. Alun was very informative, engaging and we found the entire experience really interesting and enjoyable, despite of course the content being quite heavy. Would definitely highly recommend - thanks Alun.

The tour of a lifetime - Let me get the tip done: you meet your tour group in Marienplatz, a touristy market square. Slightly hidden is the tourist information office – you meet up outside.
I am serious about this tour being the trip of a lifetime. I was born 11 years after VE Day. WWII history was still recent, and everyone’s dads had served in the war. As kids we played pretend Allies against Nazis, and major magazine LIFE often ran photo essays pertaining to WWII. I am a history buff who has read most books and seen most documentaries about the rise and fall of the Third Reich. Problem was, I never had the time or money to visit Europe till recently.
Our tour guide Alun made sure everyone was ready and comfortable with bussing to Dachau on a grey cool day. I thought I knew a lot about concentration camps, but I learned so much by actually visiting the death camp. Dachau was was the first concentration camp established by the Nazi regime, and it served as a ‘model’ for death camps. It’s difficult to understand the sheer weight of human suffering till you experience a site like this.
The sun came out in time for an afternoon tour of Third Reich landmarks -- Beer Hall Putsch, brown shirt marches, etc. I was surprised that so many of the original sites are still in place, and in such a small area. I was morbidly thrilled to see Hitler's Munich office building, where he would sometimes stand on the balcony to address the adoring. It is such an ugly and cold place; Albert Speer's architecture was bizarre, and I’m glad some of it is still standing so we can get the full picture of that regime.
The tour guide stressed how delicate the balance is for Germans, who live with guilt and ambivalence. Everything was done with taste and concern for the past and the present. Next time I visit Germany I hope to bring my husband on Alun’s tour. I really can’t imagine how the tour could have been better, unless we did an expanded tour with Alun.
