Tour was informative and I wouldn't have been able to get from place to place without a guide that knew the city. My guide was friendly and approachable when I asked questions.

Learned many new facts about Hitler, the Nazis and their work/impact in Nuremberg as well as all of Germany. Visited historic sites that were associated with Hitler's reign and the importance of those sites. Quite impactful to then visit the courtroom where the world heard about the activities of the Nazis, how the trials were handled and fates were determined.

The tour was a lot of fun with a small group, and the tour guide was funny and knowledgeable. He was very accommodating and interactive. The tour was 4 hours long, but I wish there'd been more time at the Courtroom 600 as there was quite a bit of interesting material to read. I didn't get to finish all the exhibits due to the time constraint, but overall, I was well pleased with the tour. All the locations on the tour are outside of Nuremburg's city center and can be reached by public transport, however it was extremely convenient to be picked up at my hotel and driven there in a vehicle. I think this saved time and likely confusion on my part trying to navigate an unfamiliar transportation system. The information presented on the tour also made me curious about the events of the Nuremburg Trials, so I read even more about the events on-line. The information was heavy, but I expected in advance that it would be. I would highly recommend this tour when visiting Nuremburg.

Rob was our tour guide and he was fantastic! From the moment he stepped out of the van to pick us up he was so vibrant and friendly. His friendly demeanor made this tour about some tragic topics very interesting and he captivated your attention. Along its these difficult topics we did have some fun together. He had so much knowledge to share and did it in a great way. Rob even went above and beyond to have pictures of what we would have seen in the unfortunately closed documentation center so we could have more insight and information. Would love to take another tour with rob!
