Early Morning Guided Tour from Meeting Point to Auschwitz (Special Offer)

Join a guided day trip from Krakow to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, the largest former Nazi concentration and extermination camp and today a UNESCO-listed site of remembrance. This visit offers an opportunity to learn about one of the most important chapters in modern history.

Travel from Krakow with organized transport options, including hotel pickup, and enter the memorial with a pre-arranged ticket for a streamlined experience. Throughout the 3.5-hour tour, you will be accompanied by a certified historian or licensed educator who provides essential context and expert commentary.

Begin at Auschwitz I, where you will walk through preserved barracks and prisoner blocks. View original belongings of victims, pass beneath the “Arbeit macht frei” gate, and learn about the daily conditions, hardships, and resilience of prisoners.

Continue to Auschwitz II–Birkenau, the expansive section of the camp where over a million people were murdered. Here, you will see the remains of the gas chambers and crematoria and gain a deeper understanding of the site’s role in the Nazis’ “Final Solution.” Your guide will lead a reflective moment at the memorial areas.
