Long Emotional Day -- but worth it.

We took three tours in Munich with Radius and all of them were amazing. Our guide for the Dachau tour, Sam, was extremely well versed in all aspects of Dachau. We had been to Dachau previously, but without a private guide. Sam added so much more insight and details that made the return trip much more meaningful. It's a tough, emotional day. Because we were a big group, Sam was great at organizing us for our train to Dachau and bus to the camp.

I learned so much about political prisoners and the history of the camp. I definitely thought about our current times.

Great tour and definitely recommend!

Aileen was great! Easier transportation there then I expected and our guide was very clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the subject. Definitely worth the tour because she discussed things past what you could read clearly throughout the museum. We also still were given time at the end to explore on our own. 10/10 recommend!
