Good to know
• If you would like to visit the memorial at times when there is little crowding, the afternoon tour (1:10 PM) is recommended, as there are fewer school classes and groups on site at that time • This tour departs from the meeting point at the stated departure time. If you have difficulty walking or are in a wheelchair, you will need a carer and must arrive 10 minutes before departure at the meeting point, as you will use a different entrance for the platform and the train
Getting there
The tour starts in front of the Tourist Information for the City of Munich at the Gothic Town Hall in Marienplatz. The guide will hold a yellow sign with "Dachau Memorial Tour" written on it in red letters.

“Mat was very good, and clear with information he made this a really good experience and he was very engaging with all on the tour. I wouldn't do it again but would recommend others to book it. I would have liked another 30/45 minutes to just visit the museum at the end as it felt this was a bit rushed but only because I am interested in this kind of thing.”
“Highly recommend. For what we received the price was extremely good. Alex navigated us from Munich to Dachau easily even with it being such a large group. Alex had an abundance of information, and answered every question asked. He was informative and also had the perfect personality to keep every member of the group engaged. A credit to the tour company.”
