Germany · SACHSENHAUSEN MEMORIAL TOURS

Visiting the Sachsenhausen Memorial from Berlin

27 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.8 average  ·  from $17

Sachsenhausen, on the edge of Oranienburg an hour north of Berlin, was a concentration camp built by the SS in 1936 and run until April 1945. Tens of thousands of prisoners died there. The grounds are now a national memorial and museum, and admission to the site is free; what the visits below cover is the journey from Berlin, a fixed time and a guide who takes you through the grounds and the documentation. Read the practical detail before booking: the memorial is largely outdoors, the walk around it is long, and most itineraries run five to six hours door to door.

“As somber as visiting a concentration camp is, Ariel made the experience deeply informative and meaningful during our visit to the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp. We learned so much throughout the tour, and he made sure to highlight the most significant areas of the site with care and respect. He was polite, patient, and attentive—answering every question, listening thoughtfully, and even helping us catch the correct train on the way back. He couldn’t have been more pleasant. Thank you, Ariel, for making this important visit both memorable and impactful.”

“The trip was great, a good learning experience. It was our first time in Germany and dealing with the local language so the experience was all new. Having a good contact number from the moment of reservation would be ideal since sometimes the calls and email methods shared by the app might be limited or have issues. Other than that, the tour was more than expected.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 318 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $83

Berlin day tour to Sachsenhausen Memorial and Potsdam, with guided transfers, English commentary, and timed reflection in key sites.

“I would like to review today’s tour. I strongly suggest the company contact the group members to get their feedback on how well the guide was understood. The guide was very professional and ensured everything went smoothly. The only issue was with the company’s allocation—our guide spoke Italian-accented English, which made it very difficult for us to understand. We also met two other groups whose guides spoke fluent, clear English, which highlighted the difference. It would have been better if the company had assigned a guide fluent in English for an English-speaking tour, which is especially important for today’s tour since there is little written information available on the website.”
