Full description

This moving tour takes you to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial to experience the full impact of this harrowing site: a worldwide symbol of terror, genocide, and the Holocaust. Auschwitz- Birkenau was the largest concentration and extermination camp established by the Nazis during World War II. A guided visit of both sections, Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau, will let you understand the site in its entirety. See the camp's fortified walls, barbed wire, railway sidings, platforms, barracks, gallows, gas chambers, and crematoria. All this will help create a deeper understanding of the infamous project of the Holocaust, as well as the Nazi policy of mass murder and forced labor.

Highly recommend this tour! It will take 10-12 hours from Wrocław but it is worth it. Our guide, Mattias, was excellent! English was impeccable and he was so knowledgeable! Pickup was easy! Long drive from Wrocław but our driver stopped midway for bathroom and coffee break on way. Along the way he shared a lot of history. Once there, he was super helpful in showing us around and explaining the day and the steps. Once there, we joined a larger tour and it was powerful… no complaints. Highly recommend it!

Our driver Machey was prompt, professional and very friendly as he drove us to Auschwitz and back. He answered our questions and took us to some places that was not covered in the tour. Our tour in Auschwitz and then at Burkenau were very educational. Our educator/tour guide was very knowledgeable and patient with us as she explained events. Would definitely recommend.

We were unable to get tickets to Auschwitz-Birkenau and were happy to find this option for a tour. Our driver, Adam, was on time and was very helpful with history of Poland and WW2. He was courteous and professional. Our guide at Auschwitz was great, as well. Her English was excellent and she shared many stories and details that made our experience meaningful.
