The Auschwitz Museum stands on National Road 933 on the outskirts of Oswiecim. Here are some transportation options for your journey:
By Train: You can take a train from Krakow to Oswiecim station, a town 2 kilometers from Auschwitz. The journey will take approximately 1.5–2.5 hours. The walk to the Memorial and Museum of Auschwitz-Birkenau takes only 15 minutes from the station.
By Bus: 4 bus companies run between Krakow and Auschwitz and will drop you off at the Auschwitz I camp from the Oświęcim, Muzeum Auschwitz. It is located just outside the Memorial and Museum of Auschwitz-Birkenau.
By Car: You can drive to the museum by setting your GPS destination to "Memorial and Museum of Auschwitz-Birkenau” and follow the directions. You can park the car in the parking lot before the entrance.

Between March to May would be the most pleasant time to go for a tour, due to the off-season. The summer season between June to September tends to get quite busy and hot, and the winter months tend to get quite cold, not ideal for a tour. We also recommend traveling on weekdays to avoid the weekend crowds.
