Very interesting tour and the tour guides really know what they are talking about. Not too far away from Prague either. Also it isn't too cold if you decide to go in the winter months.

We definitely learned a lot on this tour, and I would say that if you have a few days in Prague, it is worth it to make the trip out to Terezin. This tour does focus on the small fortress more than the village, but I thought that it was fine that way. I think that there is more to see at the small fortress than in the village. My one complaint is that the guide that we had for our walk through the small fortress was not so great at English and didn't know how to answer questions. I think that she had memorized what to say about each of the different areas, so when anyone asked questions about anything else, she became very confused.

Excellent tour with a very professional, informative and knowledgeable guide. A difficult subject to have a tour on but was done with sensitivity and integrity.

It was a very real life experience that needs to be seen to understand how terrible the conditions were for the prisoners in these camps.

Terezin Concentration Camp was very beautiful. Our guide was good, he spoke English and German. It was very informative and the museum was very sad, but it was amazing. We had the perfect weather, the sun was out but it was not too hot. There is a lot of walking and I would recommend taking a snack or something as it is quite a long tour. I would definitely recommend this tour, I'm very glad I did it. Thanks, Viator.

Poor guide who was poorly informed about the history.

Our guide was kind of crotchety and displeased that there were 3 languages on our tour which limited the depth he could go into, unfortunately. However, the guide at the small fortress an employee of Terezin was superb. The whole experience was very worthwhile. Suggest you follow up with the Jehoseffov walking tour the next day. our guide for that was fabulous. Together, these experiences give you the big picture.

The meet up point is easy to find, right next to the underground entrance. The trip itself is informative as the guide was knowledgeable. However, be prepared if you are traveling in summer as trip includes visits and walks under the scorching sun.

Tour company was first notch. Left on time and returned on time. Was also very impressed that I was the only booked for the trip this particular day and the tour company did not try to cancel. They treated me as if the tour was full. On the flip side because I happen to be the only one, I thought the guide could have gone off the script a little bit. I was the only one on the bus, yet I couldn't get a question in edge wise. He was so intent on giving his canned speech that he would even let me interrupt for a question.
