Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Panstwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau, ul. Wiezniow Oswiecimia 20 Entrance to the Museum is located at Stanisławy Leszczyńskiej Str. no. 11, Oswiecim 32-603 Poland
First, travel by minivan for 1 hour and 20 minutes before you arrive at the camp.
Founded on 27 April 1940, Auschwitz became the site of extermination by inhumane conditions and physical destruction of prisoners. It was the biggest death camp of the Nazi regime and during your tour a licensed guide will sensitively take you to see the barbed wire fences, watchtowers, barracks, gallows and gas chambers; these depict the circumstances under which the Nazi genocide took place. Spend 2 hours here with a short 20 minute break.
You will also visit Birkenau, a short 5-minute drive from Auschwitz. Birkenau comprised of more than 300 buildings, including latrines, watchtowers and gas chambers. Although a challenge, it’s important to remember these events to make sure that this history is never repeated.
Spend approximately 1.5 hours here before the 1 hour 20 minute drive back to Krakow.

This trip is a must very moving and educational.
This trip is a must very moving and educational would recommend to anyone visiting Poland.
Our driver Matt was brilliant. My daughter and I enjoyed our day in Auschwitz and Birkenau. Our guide was good and we managed not to get wet - dodged the rain. The trip was very informative and well worth the money.
