  • "There is lots of walking so be prepared - need to stay close to guide or you miss information." See review

The tour was great and guide was fantastic- very knowledgeable and emotive. We were picked up outside our hotel and dropped off again in the afternoon which saved alot of hassle. I just felt a little rushed throughout the tour and would have liked to have a bit more time to go into some of the other buildings as I felt like we maybe missed some of the camp.

Very well organized by the tour operators. Communication was good, a day before we were informed about our pickup time and location. Jakob and his colleague were very helpful, the drive was comfortable to and fro. The packed veg lunch included a bottle of water, sandwich and cookies. The memorial itself is a must visit & I highly recommend this tour if you don't want to drive yourself.

Auschwitz and Birkenau tour

, Aug 2020
Overall great trip. Myself and my partner booked this trip approximately 15 hours before we went, it was confirmed within 1 hour of booking and a driver collected us from the hotel we were staying. We were taken to Auschwitz in a private vehicle being us 2 and the driver. Upon arriving we joined a group with a very knowledgeable English speaking tour guide. After Auschwitz tour we were taken to Birkenau for the second part of the tour and given a lunch bag with sandwich, biscuit and water. After Birkenau tour we were dropped at a location of our choice in Kraków. Very efficient I would highly recommend.
