The tour was very good and the guide was excellent but we booked for the 10.10 am pick up which was confirmed but the day before the tour I was contacted by text to say that the time had been changed to 6.45 pick up. This eas very early and also unexpected. But the tour itself was very good.

I was impressed by the professionalism of the team and the guide. The office kept me updated by mail on the pick-up place and time. Pick up on time early morning with a comfortable van. The driver and the guide were both very knowledgable and was looking after us to get the best experience. Really great and to recommend.

Very interesting tour, very nice driver, very professional guide who answered questions and explained everything. It's a pity that at times the tour was a bit rushed.

It was very well organized, are pending at all times of the visitors, the driver is not o ly well prepared but it gives you instructins of points of meeting, always reassure we were al completed before moving, tickets, IDs, and makes the exprerience worth it because there is a lot of people visiting. Our guide she new well the history, and also pending of the group, and the fact that we all have badges to identify the group also helps.

Auschwitz-Birkenau: Dive into history

Departing from Krakow, you'll travel in air-conditioned comfort, soaking in the poignant narrative woven by your licensed guide. Be prepared to step into a haunting epoch of history as you walk through the infamous 'Arbeit Macht Frei' gate into Auschwitz I and traverse the 22 brick barracks that once housed hundreds of thousands of Holocaust victims.

Unearthing the dark past and ticket options

Witness the grim realities of the Holocaust as you venture into Block 11, a harrowing prison within the prison, home to torture chambers and the site of the first extermination attempts using Zyklon B gas. The next stop is Auschwitz II-Birkenau, a camp that sprawls over an area 25 times larger than Auschwitz I and stands as a chilling testament to the scale of Nazi atrocities. Your journey culminates in a solemn moment at the Memorial, offering a space to pay respects to the victims of this grim period. Depending on your chosen option, engage with a guide fluent in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, or Polish. This immersive experience comes with comfortable round-trip transfers from Krakow, ensuring a seamless journey.
