Outstanding because of Alun
Julianne_S
, Jun 2022
Alun advised and directed us expertly. I had concern of spending 3 hours at Dachau but the time went quickly and was well spent. My 19 yo daughter said Alun was the best tour guide ever, knowledgable, passionate and related the lessons learned to the present. Thank you Alun.

Great personal tour
Cblindley
, Aug 2021
We were so fortunate to visit Dachau under the amazing guidance of Alun Evans. He was punctual, engaging and passionate about his vocation. We traveled by public transportation to Dachau on a day there was a strike by railway workers. Alun was careful to assure we were not left in the lurch regarding transport. We arrived and entered Dachau accompanied by Alun's interesting narrative regarding WW II, Germany and camp history. After an emotional and sobering tour of the Concentration camp we were given ample time to tour the Museum...even had enough time to grab an ice cream before heading back to Munich. Can't recommend this dedicated guide enough. Alun is terrific.

Thankyou for your review. It was an absolute pleasure to meet you and guide you at the Dachau memorial. One of the positive aspects of taking a tour when travelling, is that your guide takes responsibility for the logistics. When something happens, like the strike we encountered, it is reassuring to know that you have someone who understands what is going on and can negotiate the situation. I am delighted that it all worked out for us on the day. All the best.
