The service provider managing the visit contacted me several times to let me know I'd be there for the visit, adding photos to make the appointment. Quality service, I recommend it.

The organization of the tour was good but the real star is a tour guide, a lady was excellent, providing so much details I never heard of (although I knew many facts about Germany during Nazi period and about their labour/death camps). She was marvelous.

The guide was late, without informing me in advance. Considering the fact that there is no signage on site regarding groups, I was concerned. A text message with information about the delay from the agency would have been welcome.
