I thought that Jamie G (“Irish Jamie”) did a great job guiding our group through this challenging site. The content was emotional but he did an amazing job preparing us on the bus ride there with a lot of historical context and information. Jamie led us through the concentration camp sensitively and with a wealth of knowledge. While the camp can be accessed via public transportation for much lower cost, I appreciated having the bus ride there to prepare me for this emotional trip and having the bus ride back to process the experience.  A knowledgeable tour guide is essential when visiting Sachsenhausen.  I highly recommend a visit to this camp and highly recommend Insider Tours.

The tour was slightly more expensive than other walking tour, but picked up by and dropped off by a mini bus was all worthwhile. Less walking and more time to listen to historic tutorials given by the guide in the mini bus was excellent. Very informative and highly recommend the tour.

An excellent day, led by our supremely knowledgable, very personable and enthusiastic leader, Mike Stack. (Who even took the time to chat about my Uncle’s Bomber Command service) The chilly, wet weather added to the atmosphere of this chilling place. A must do visit, appreciating the history. A++++ all the way.

Had an excellent experience on the Sachsenhausen tour guided by Walid. The tour was well paced and allowed us a great overview of the history of the camp and Walid was very engaging and able to answer all of the group's many questions.

Highly recommend.

This was an emotive and educational experience. You can watch all the documentaries and read all the books you like but they will never convey the story the way we experienced during our visit. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and approachable so no question left unanswered. He managed the information with respect and shared it with compassion.

Our guide, Walid, was one of the best tour guides I've ever had on a group tour. He provided so much history and background that I didn't know. He invoked his personal opinions, gently and diplomatically. I was only sorry the tour with him was only 4 hours. As for Sachsenhausen - as with so many of the German memorial sites, there is more information than one can possibly take in. It has been preserved just enough to be illustrative and impactful.

We went to Sachsenhausen with Gabi who was absolutely amazing. She was so knowledgeable about the camp, the history surrounding the war and Germany’s political history and was very friendly, inclusive and helpful. The tour itself was the perfect length of time - 10am - 2pm and the coach drive out was very comfortable. Highly highly recommend.
