Essential visit

Tour arrangements were clear. Driver was on time, courteous and clear about the arrangements for the day. Tour itself was informative guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. Trip is essential to recognise the atrocities carried out in Poland and to gain an understanding of what the Jewish people experienced. Very respectful, would recommend the trip. Make sure you include Birkenau as well as Auschwitz to really gain understanding

Guide was not that good
Luis_F

The site was great. The van driver was a bit too fast forgetting that the van was loaded! The guide we took her name was Mazena, maybe it wasn’t her best day. She was very experienced but she was like a robot, no interaction or conversation with the group. She didn’t like to answer questions either. If you get her I would suggest you to ask for another one.

The day i paid my Respects at Auschwitz & Birkenau
Michelle_Davis
, Mar 2020
Im still in shock at what i witnessed at Auschwitz & Birkenau camps. The tour was very professional and Respectful in delivering what atrocities went on at these camps. The message to never let people forget what went on their the suffering humiliation and endless needless deaths of very innocent children women and men. I went to pay my respects and ive not stopped thinking about it ever since. Keep on the good work of educating people in the hope that history will never repeat itself again. Thankyou to our tour guide she was great. Michelle Davis Preston Lancashire
