2. Customized and/or individualised experience

It may also be understood that any particular group or any particular individual who are planning to pay a visit to Sachsenhausen, may have some specific area of interest or concern. A guide will have time for you and will be willing to use a specific language, or focus on your special interests. If you have a special interest in a particular part of the camp or have a curiosity as to what the different buildings and facilities were used for, or maybe if you wish to hear some of the individual testimonies or perhaps you are interested in one or more facets of the Holocaust a private guide will be able to plan a tour according to your interests, making your visit that bit more worthwhile.

3. Increased attention and the influence of feelings

Tour guides who operate around Sachsenhausen are well equipped to package past facts to make them as interesting as possible.

They appeal to your feelings in order to create deep understanding of history and the scale of events that took place in Sachsenhausen.

4. Insights that are not easily gathered by anyone not going through the evaluation process

Sachsenhausen guides have much need information about the camp, about which chapters even much of the ‘hidden’ information is unknown to the most casual visitor. From them, you can learn the quieter narratives that are still meaningful and bring out a fresh understanding that helps you understand the place of the camp in history.

5. Quizzing and conversant

While walking through the territory of the Sachsenhausen camp, you may think differently, or there may be questions arise to get an explanation. A tour guide is someone who can answer any questions that you may have and provide you with a vast amount of information, so that, when it is over, there is really nothing else you can want to know. Guides may also facilitate group discussions to encourage discussion since you also get to discuss with other visitors.

6. Pilot aid to navigate and to time.

The Sudetenland buildings were a large area and without prior knowledge it was rather difficult to focus on specific buildings. Besides facilitating the movement around the camp, a tour guide will guide you on how you can effectively manage time in order to cover as many areas as possible. In this manner, one could save much time that would otherwise be spent organizing and staking out the place instead of planning where to find a seat when the juice runs out, for instance.
