    1. Nationaal Monument Kamp Vught

      We visit the former Nazi concentration camp Vught in the South of Holland. The camp was first used in 1942 and held 31,000 Jewish and political prisoners. We will visit the remainders of the concentration camp with its watchtowers, barracks, crematorium, original train and children's memorial.

    2. The John Frost Bridge - John Frostbrug

      The John Frost Bridge over the Rhine at Arnhem was the last bridge that needed to be captured during Operation Market Garden. If the Allies could capture this bridge the road to Germany would lay open. The bridge plays an important role in the movie A Bridge Too Far.

      45 minutes here

    3. Airborne Museum at Hartenstein

      We visit the Airborne Museum at Villa Hartenstein. During the Battle of Arnhem in September 1944, which was part of the military operation Market Garden, Hartenstein became the headquarters of the British Airborne Division during heavy fighting. The daring attempt to punch through German lines and capture the Ruhr area to quickly end the war was unsuccessful. The bridge at Arnhem turned out to be a bridge too far. Now, Hartenstein is home to personal stories from British, Polish, and German soldiers as well as from civilians, told through the museum’s unique historical objects.

      180 minutes here · Admission included

    4. We will visit the Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery. Here most of the 1684 fallen soldiers of the September landings are laid to rest.

    One of the best tours I’ve ever been on

    This was an absolutely incredible experience. The Operation Market Garden museum was very informative. The small tour group was mainly Canadian, so we visited the Canadian WWII cemetery afterwards, and then took a detour into Germany since it was so close. After, we visited Vught, a concentration camp, and learned about the horrors that happened there. The tour was poignant and moving, and the best part of all was our guide who was a wealth of knowledge on the subjects and on Dutch history and culture in general. She shared her family’s sad WWII stories with us, helping us connect the tragedies of 80+ years ago to today. I will always remember this day. If I ever revisit Amsterdam again, I will absolutely book (at least) one of their other tours, as I have no doubt they’re equally informative and memorable.

    A must-see tour of these WWII memorials.

    This tour met and exceeded every expectation we could have ever had with my 21-year-old son and I. I highly recommend this tour and our guide Ava for families of all ages. I personally have had family members from both Canada and the U.S. serve in the military and have lost great-uncles in WWII. In addition, I have personally escorted 7 WWII Veterans on a 1-day trip to the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C. and heard each of their stories of their service. Truly, our Greatest Generation. Although sombre and quite sobering, this is an important part of our history and should be remembered. Ava's personal story and her family journey is the icing on the cake of this perfect day. I would recommend this tour 100%.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review Marie. It was an honor to have you both on board. It was a very meaningful day and I really enjoyed your input and wise words. All the best to you both, who knows our paths will cross again one day! Best regards, Eva - Dutch Tours

    A fantastic experience that helps grasp the gravity of what happened in WWII

    What a great experience. Having a local guide, Ava, was even better. She and her family were impacted by the war. She was kind enough to share personal experiences that added to the experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for joining us on this tour. We hope it was meaningful for you. The historic impact of WW2 was enormous in this part of the world. We are honored that we could show you some of the historic sights. Kind Regards, Sarah, Dutch Tours

    Great experience!

    Great trip and experience. Would highly recommend. The guide's personal family history that she told really added a lot to the story and experience as well.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for joining me on the tour and for your kind words Nick! Hope to see you again one day! Best regards, Eva - Dutch Tours

    Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amsterdam.

    How much does Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery cost?

    +

    Prices start at $429 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amsterdam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Amsterdam is not rushed.

    Is Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Amsterdam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Amsterdam can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Amsterdam and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Amsterdam within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Amsterdam?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Amsterdam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Amsterdam Food and Cultural Tour with 10 Tastings, Amsterdam Canal Cruise with Local Guide and Small Group, Amsterdam 90 minutes Canal Cruise with bar and snacks on board.. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Amsterdam?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Amsterdam?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Private WW II Tour: Nazi Camp, WW2 battle grounds and cemetery?

    +
