A place to open our mind about radical choices and opinions about human capacity. All people in the world shoud visit Auschwitz.
Obviously a very emotional visit but these events in history should never be forgotten. Our guide Barbara was very knowledgable and gave a thorough grounding in the Nazi operations of the camps. Our driver, Andrew, was also very knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble for him. I had previous knowledge of Oskar Schindlers factory operation but to visit the factory made it all the more poignant.
Auschwitz tour was very worthwhile. I highly recommend seeing it. Schindler's factory was disappointing. We expected to learn more about him. Instead, it was about WWII and almost nothing about Schindler. I would not recommend that part of the tour at all.
