What to expect

See the horrors of Auschwitz-Birkenau and attend the fully guided tour at Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II Birkenau. During your tour, you will travel between two camps in a comfortable shuttle bus.

It is impossible for people who were born after WWII to imagine what happened at the time of the Holocaust. A visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau helps you understand the biggest human tragedy in history.

The Nazi camp in Auschwitz was established in 1941 when the first prisoners arrived there by train. For 4 years, the camp in Auschwitz was being expanded until Auschwitz II Birkenau was built, with gas chambers, and then Auschwitz III – a work camp. Thousands of people experienced physical and psychological abuse and were murdered. The SS hurriedly destroyed most evidence of crimes and tests carried out on prisoners at the site.

Your tour at Auschwitz starts in front of the main entrance at Auschwitz I where our representative will hand over your entrance ticket. The tour includes visits to two camps: Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II Birkenau with personal attendance of the official Auschwitz Guide. You will see the remains of barracks, watchtowers, railway ramps, gas chambers, and crematoriums. A comfortable shuttle bus will drive you from one camp to another and back. The Guide will speak to you through the microphone and all the visitors will be equipped with headphones.

    Ik heb op maandag 26 mei voor vijf persoon deze tour geboekt en de vouchers uitgeprint. Via whattsapp wordt mij op 26 sept om 18.31 uur verteld dat wij ons om 3.10 am moeten verzamelen in Krakow terwijl ik op eigen vervoer naar Auschwitz afreis. Wij hebben losse tickets geboekt. Uiteindelijk moesten we ons om 4.40 am melden voor museum in Auschwitz. Tijden kunnen veranderen maar dit sloeg nergens op. Heb mij om 11.30 uur gemeld bij de receptie van het museum en zelf ticket gekocht

    Omdat het last minute gecanceld is heb ik het dit gegeven en omdat ik verder met niemand kan bereiken. Zou graag geld terug willen, aangezien we dus niet heen zijn geweest ivm de drukte. Super jammer en teleurstellend dit aangezien we hiervoor 12 uur uur hebben gereden, speciaal om dit te mogen zien.

    Het afspraakpunt is niet bereikbaar waardoor we geen rondleiding hebben gehad met de betaalde gids. Weggesmeten geld. Waardoor we nieuwe tickets hebben moeten kopen en 3,5u moesten wachten. Ook de effectieve toegangstickets werden ons niet toegestuurd

    Ik vond het helemaal niks!!! 100 keer proberen te bellen, 200 keer hulp gevraagd en niemand kon mij vertellen waar ik moest verzamelen. Nergens bij geen enkele locatie wisten de medewerkers waar ik moest zijn. Ik wil ook mijn €34,99 euro terug. Ik heb geen tour gehad en heb alleen maar stress en verdriet.

    Mal organizzati. Non avevano i biglietti e li hanno acquistati in loco la mattina, facendoci arrivare prima, per fortuna siamo entrati. Trasfert fra i due campi, nonostante nella registrazione era compreso, ci hanno cacciato dal furgone dicendo che dovevamo prendere la navetta perché non c'era posto
