Overview

Berchtesgaden holds so much historical value with regards to World War II. During the Third Reich the Obersalzberg was the Southern Headquarters for the National Socialist Party with many top leaders owning homes here, and many important political decisions made here. This private tour is perfect for those wishing to discover this history...

This half day tour covers many of the historically important sites on the Obersalzberg, including the more hidden locations that most tourists never hear about such as the site of the Berghof; Hitler's former home.

This tour also includes the secrets hidden on the mountain which really provide an authentic account of the fascinating history of this area.
