Journey from Krakow to the town of Oświęcim to explore one of the darkest chapters in Europe's history. Tour the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum with an English-speaking guide who will provide you with a sensitive tour giving you insight into life in the camps and the horrors that occurred during their years of operation.

You'll learn how more than 1.5 million people were sent to the camps by the Nazi regime and put to death during World War II. Founded in 1947, the memorial was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979 for the important story it relates.

Pay your respects to the victims of the Holocaust, while hearing details about life at the camp, where original features, along with personal possessions that belonged to the prisoners, are a reminder of the horrors that should never happen again.

It has to be done to witness the sheer scale of what went on……and whilst you cannot say this is enjoyable…..the way it is done is respectful, educational and harrowing at the same time… The only thing we had an issue with was the tour guides sound system as it was clanging around a lot

It would have been nice to have little time for a break to have a coffee and look at the books at the end but this was an amazing experience.

Very good tour.pick up and driver was excellent and also the guide was very informative.very thought provoking trio but would recommend

The tour its self was absolutely amazing and the tour guide was brilliant. The drive was terrible and the driver drove so irresponsible I also booked a 7 hour tour and the whole thing lasted 3 hours

Amazing tour. Guide was great - no queues- hotel pickup all seamless

So very well organised from communications to transport, tickets, guide excellent service Thank you
