Pick-up service was well informed and arranged. Driver Konrad was most helpfull and kind, and good & safe driver!

Our tour guide in Auschwitz and Birkenau was just perfect! She knows everything there and the arrangements were really smooth. The audio system works perfectly and let's you have some flexibilty for your own interest points during the tour, and you do not miss any information - or the group.

Also similar arrangement was in use in the Salt Mine. All in all, interesting day and impressive sights!!!

Description

More than a million Jews and other prisoners were killed in Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II. On this tour you’ll learn about what it was like to live in the camps during Nazi occupation and see, first hand, the brutality of Hitler’s regime.

You’ll visit both Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau and have the opportunity to join guided tours in English or to explore at your own pace with privacy.

The second half of the tour takes you below ground, to the UNESCO-listed Wieliczka Salt Mine, which is more than 800 years old. You’ll be surprised by what you discover in the many chambers of this dark world – including a gothic cathedral and underground lake! Guided tours in English take place every hour (every half hour in Summer) and the route takes about 2.5 hours.

PLEASE NOTE
The salt mine tour involves climbing up and down a total of 800 stairs and is not advised for people with mobility issues.

4.5/5
Well organised and no hassle
for Auschwitz & Wieliczka Salt Mine Day Trip from Krakow
Both our driver and guides were very professional and friendy. We had enough time both at Auschwitz and at the salt mines. We also had a decent lunch break. Those who intend to book this tour need to be aware that there is a lot of walking and if you have time maybe you should consider doing them on seperate days.
Excellent tour day!

1st class tour operator
for Auschwitz-Birkenau Group Tour from Krakow
Our Group of 4 were picked up from our hotel on time arranged , our transport was a clean air conditioned mini bus ,our driver Conrad was polite very keen to answer any questions we had and also played a video on route of the history of Auschwitz, ,Once we arrived at Auschwitz we were grouped up with around another 15 people for the tour which seemed to be the same amount of people in the other tour groups,it took about 1hr 45 to complete the tour once the tour was over ,Conrad then took us to Auschwitz -Birkenau which is only a short drive, we were then taken around by the same tour guide in the same group the tour took about 1hr 15 the tour guide was excellent ,We could not have booked a better tour operator everything was 1st class .The only bad points was to witness the horror of what the Nazis inflicted on the poor souls who were murdered at Auschwitz .

Everybody Should.
for Auschwitz-Birkenau Group Tour from Krakow
My wife and i felt compelled to do this trip as we have had such a wonderful life compared to the the majority of Auschwitz-Birkenau inmates who had none . The tour was well planned and carried out with enough information on conditions and the setting for this tragedy to give us an insight into what these human being were put through .
