The experience itself is one EVERY SINGLE HUMAN BEING should be made to undertake. We could not have come to Poland (family wedding) without making time to attend

Great informative tour by the tour guide. It was rushed which was disappointing as I would have liked more time to walk around. There was no fast track as you still have to queue for the tour. The lunch was well worth the money and Pawel our driver was so helpful and lovely to deal with.

The whole day was very well organised The driver was great The tour was great We give the tour organiser, Headout, 5 out of 5, but the huge volume of people every day means the entry/exit at every location is planned to the minute. This results in a rushed feel with no time to sit back and soak in the feel of the site This is a minor issue, and we thoroughly recommend the tour

Experiment to be made. However, the appointment was made at 9am, I was written to the day before saying that it was postponed to 5am... We had booked breakfast though....

Haunting exploration of Auschwitz-Birkenau

Travel comfortably from Krakow in an air-conditioned vehicle to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial Museum. Step through the iron gate of KL Auschwitz 1, etched with the deceptive words 'Work Sets You Free', and explore the haunting remnants of the 22 brick barracks that once housed hundreds of thousands of Holocaust victims.

A glimpse into the unthinkable

Here, you will be led to block 11, notoriously known as 'the prison within the prison', home to brutal torture chambers and initial extermination attempts using Zyklon B. The tour continues to KL Auschwitz 2 Birkenau, where over 1 million lives were lost. This engaging, expert-guided tour, available in the language of your preference, concludes with a reflective visit to the Memorial, where you can pay your respects to the victims of this horrific genocide.
