    i booked the Auschwitz-Birkenau small group tour based on the great reviews i read online, i have to say my daughter and i were not disappointed . There were other tours that were a lot cheaper but this one was worth every single penny . Richard , our guide was absolutely fantastic , he delivered the information in such a respectful , and thoughtful manner and at just the right pace , he gave us time to take in all the exhibits and displays , i can’t praise him highly enough . Thankyou

    Too many people. Found it difficult to keep up with our party. Also, difficult to identify our group as the leader was not easily identifiable, It would be helpful to have hat in colour of group. At Birkenau I was unable to keep up and therefore missed all the explanations of where we were.

    Minder leuk was de vervroeging van de start van de excursie. In plaats van 7:30 moesten we om 6:40 uur vertrekken. Beter om dat vooraf te melden want we waren sowieso gegaan ondanks is het vroege tijdstip. Leuk vind ik niet het goede woord om te verbinden aan deze excursie. Het was indrukwekkend en de rondleiding goed van opbouw, ik werd echt meegenomen in het verhaal. Ik ben van mening dat iedereen deze ervaring mag meemaken zodat er nooit meer zoiets onmenselijks gebeurt als in Auschwitz.
