Why you’ll love this…
  • Visit Auschwitz Museum and Birkenau Camp in Oświęcim, one of the most significant places in Poland
  • Learn about the lives of those who died and view their belongings at the museum
  • Hear how the camps were operated and the inhuman conditions of its prisoners
What to expect

Journey from Krakow to the town of Oświęcim to explore one of the darkest chapters in Europe's history. Tour the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum with an English-speaking guide who will provide you with a sensitive tour giving you insight into life in the camps and the horrors that occurred during their years of operation.

You'll learn how more than 1.5 million people were sent to the camps by the Nazi regime and put to death during World War II. Founded in 1947, the memorial was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979 for the important story it relates.

Pay your respects to the victims of the Holocaust, while hearing details about life at the camp, where original features, along with personal possessions that belonged to the prisoners, are a reminder of the horrors that should never happen again.

    We where let down twice they cancelled our trip on the Wednesday so that spoiled the rest of the day then they said they would try for the Thursday but it was unlikely so we couldn’t plan any other trip just in case as this was the main reason we went there they messaged me late afternoon to say we could go Friday at 1’30 pm so couldn’t do much in morning where our original time was 9,30 am so it spoiled our trip really won’t be doing it again

    The only negative was a late change of time for the day from 9.30am pick up to 5.45am!! It was worth it though. Very good tour carried out with respect to the place we were visiting

    Our minivan transfer driver felt quite unsafe. He was overtaking erratically and speeding consistently leaving us to feel both unsafe and unwell. The tour guide at Auschwitz and Birkenau was exceptional.
