Thanks to the guided tour of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, from the beginning we will begin to understand the dimension of the realities that were lived here. Going through each of its places, we will learn more about how to run a concentration camp, about how the jobs were distributed according to the crimes, what were the punishments that were inflicted.

We got to the meeting point at least 30 min early. When the guide showed up everything was super disorganized so it took quite a while for us to check in. We did realize we needed a train ticket but didn't know which one. I guess the tour company expects everyone to look up the train map and figure out where you are going so you buy the right ticket. The guide was annoyed and pointed to the train station and told us to go get tickets. He said the group would be going to that area (there are many entrances to many trains). We left a couple of our party outside to watch. The guide took the group a different way and completely left us. We ended up having to figure it out and go on our own. Which we were able to do with some difficulty which is why we booked the tour in the first place. I realize there is a time contraint but why assume everyone knows what train ticket they need. Why not message people or put it clearly on the website.

The tour starts at Alexanderplatz. Daniel was waiting for us there. A large group, because Ascension Day. Everyone had an ABC ticket so we could get on the road quickly. We first took the metro to Gesundbrunnen. From there the train to Oranienburg. Finally, a bit by bus.
Daniel takes us extensively into the history before and during the visit to the concentration camp. He knows a lot and is very knowledgeable. I wouldn't have wanted to miss this tour.
You can travel back to the starting point after the tour. But you can also stay or travel from there to another location.

We will not hire a tour with Buendía again, much less a paid one.
We chose for our Easter vacation in Berlin the tour of the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp. It is true that we were not at the meeting point at the indicated time, but despite it being a paid tour (€25/person, there were 4 of us) and having confirmed the day before that we would be there, no one from Buendía or his guide, Jonas took the trouble to call to inquire about the reason.
We made the visit on our own, thanks to Google Maps and the Audioguides in Spanish (€3.5/person) that they provide upon arriving at the Field. We learned a lot. It is an essential visit.

Our guide Pete was incredible and shared all his knowledge on this tour. Visiting a concentration camp today was a very strong experience, probably one that is necessary in order to understand the depth of the horrors of history and the level of evil that humanity can ever reach.
It was very meaningful to ‘enter history’ to that level but very upsetting nevertheless. Understanding the facts in depth helps you clear lots of questions but one remains - can humanity really learn from this history lesson?

An emotional experience everyone needs to experience in hopes that history never repeats itself. Jonas, our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the camps. Sachsehausen was the icon/expermental/SSS training camp. I encourage all to visit and see first hand.

The trip was stunning. Our guide really brought the camp to „life“. He was awesome and very informative.

Jonas our guide was so knowledgeable and he explained everything to us in simple language. He really brought the whole experience to life and we cannot recommend him highly enough.

We have had the bad experience of booking the free tour of the Berlin concentration camp with them.
The day before they cancel us because they say there is a transport strike (I looked it up and nothing appeared on Google). We agreed to go the next day, luckily we were still in the city. The day before the guide wrote to me on WhatsApp without introducing himself, without saying what company he was from, just saying that he had the tour with him and that he gave us a 50 minute advance notice of the meeting time and meeting place. Which seemed very unprofessional for them to do so and unreliable.
We decided to continue with the plan, but unfortunately we didn't arrive on time because the bus was delayed longer than it should, so we told him that we were going on our own with an audio guide from the countryside.
In short, nothing professional.
