Amazing the guide Anna made this tour easier and she was so insightful and helpful! Thank you from us all :)
It was a great tour with Claudia! She knew a lot about history and was really clear. It was a really interesting day, we learned a lot!
The walking tour of Sachsenhausen was an incredible experience. We were so lucky to have Roshana as our tour guide. She was unbelievably knowledgeable and set a great pace for our group. She allowed us ample time to explore some areas of the concentration camp on our own but also made sure we stayed together every time we transitioned from place to place. Roshana even made a pitstop so my sister and I could buy umbrellas! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to properly honor a significant part of Germany’s history.
Claudia was a great guide and explained the camp in depth and really gave you a great understanding of what terrible atrocities happened. Claudia was very friendly and easy to communicate with
Tour guide was very patient and passionate, we enjoyed the explanations
We visited here on July 16, 2026 with Roshana as our guide. She was an excellent guide and very efficient. She made sure we maximized our time there.
I visited on July 16. Roshana was an excellent guide and a clear expert on this topic. The Sachsenhausen museum focuses almost exclusively on the experiences of jewish people. Roshana provided additional information on other groups affected by the holocaust - e.g., roma people and homosexuals. This is a great addition to anyone looking to learn more about LGBTQ history! Roshana also took care of us following the tour and advised on how to navigate transit to where we wanted to go next, gave restaurant recommendations, and recommendations for a great lake to cool off in.
