What to know before booking
Not Included
Please make sure you have a transport ticket covering zones ABC for both the OUTBOUND and RETURN journey (or, for example, a 24‑hour ticket). If needed, the guide will be able to help you buy the tickets.
What to Bring
Bring water and something to snack on along the way. (Please note that there are no shops close to the memorial.) I recommend having a good breakfast, as eating (and smoking) is not allowed on the memorial site. I suggest checking the weather before you leave so you can dress appropriately, keeping in mind that the visit takes place mainly outdoors, and wear good shoes (a lot of walking is planned both on the way to the memorial and on site).
Restrictions
An ABC all-day transit ticket is required for this tour (not included in price)

What travelers are saying
Benjamin was absolutely amazing. One of the best guides I've ever had. He was so personable and was a true historian and story teller. We had an incredible day with him, not wanting it to end
