Very interesting, a little fast on some parts but there are quite a few groups so it's understandable. Thanks again to our guide, who made a point of respecting and remembering the place.

A truly passionate guide, with great respect for the site. He shared his knowledge with us with great emotion. Thanks to him, we were able to fulfill our duty to remember. Despite the 3.5 hours for both camps, the visit was a little quick, and I had the impression that I hadn't seen everything.

He stressed that the place has nothing to do because it exceeded my expectations, extraordinary, in fact because it was important to me this visit I made the decision to wait and follow the indications not so clear, I received a WhatsApp the day before indicating that they did not have the number of people needed to meet the schedule to perform the same but that I should still present myself at the appointed time, which was 9 am buses that served me to arrive on time were only the 6:20 AM leaving Krakow since the sgte was at 730 am did not take me on time to Auschwitz and ran the risk of losing my tickets as indicated in the WhatsApp, I arrived at the place from 8 am at 9 am I meet a person who not being very clear only indicated us not be made the tour at this time but at 12 noon and can wait in the cafeteria of the place, if they already knew from the day before that they did not have enough reservations for 9 am since my wait turned out to be very long until 12 AM I would have been very grateful if they had told me clearly from November 3rd that I had to wait until that time to arrive at this time and so my time would have been distributed to take a bus from 9 am as opposed to a bus from 6 am which there is a big difference, In addition I find that they had a large number of people more than 30 people in fact they had 2 groups with 2 guides in Spanish at 12 noon most likely from the day before they knew it because the tickets are purchased in advance I would have appreciated clarity and respect in their logistics with my time, but in short recommendation that I hope they keep in mind because today the only thing I can recommend to my acquaintances is that esninciertanlaninformsciin. Burndada that you have to be filled with patience and denun. Full day to understand its logistics and be in the place daelncual.
