🗣️ What visitors report

About the guides

The review summary highlights their knowledge, empathy and thoughtful explanations.

About the pace

Some visitors find the tour rushed and would prefer more time in the exhibition.

About transport

Visitors mention the organisation of the group during travel. One review describes a train delay, without evidence that this is a recurring issue.

A visit worth preparing for

The subject matter is difficult. If you want to read the entire exhibition slowly or spend substantial time reflecting, bear in mind that time at each stop is not specified.

The page suggests the 1:10 PM departure for those who prefer a time when, it says, fewer school classes and groups are present. Check whether that departure is available on your date.
