Highly recommend the Dachau guided tour!
bridgetcmoore, Mar 2026
Alun was thorough, knowledgeable and thought-provoking. I would 100% recommend this tour to everyone. It’s the perfect way to spend a half day if you are interested in the slightest about history. If you are visiting Dachau and not doing so with a tour guide, you are doing yourself a disservice. This day will stay with me for a long time to come. We had a small group and Alun interacted with everyone and was always able to provide answers!
A day at Dachau I will never forget

Our tour guide was Alun, and he was an absolute gem. This guided tour is the only way to go. Anyone who would even consider going without a tour guide is absolutely doing themselves a disservice. Phenomenal experience and extremely thought provoking. Highly recommended!!!
Highly recommend!

This was the highlight of our trip to Munich. Alun was the best tour guide I’ve experienced – incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and also very thoughtful about the itinerary. We had just the right amount of guided tour combined with some independent time to take in the experience.
Dachau must experience

Great and somber trip. A must see when in München. Very informative trip, and great history.
