Alex was such a lovely guy! He treated us very well and took great care of us. 10/10 organization, and the breakfast they provide was also very good. If we do it again in the future, we know without a doubt where we'll book! Thanks a million for everything!

Despite the overbooking, they did everything they could to make a tour happen for us and included the lunch option for free. Very well organized, fast and hassle-free communication, always on time, and no waiting around.

Fantastic tour! Very well managed and organized. I really enjoyed it. A big thank you to Alex for handling the transportation and for his friendliness, as well as to the museum guide for the interesting presentations.

It was something you can't feel or see in movies, documentaries, or information on the internet. You have to be there and see it with your own eyes. This experience was totally worth it. Respect.

As a German, I believe it is especially important to learn about and understand this terrible part of history. Visiting Auschwitz is a deeply moving experience and a place that should not be forgotten. From the very beginning, the whole experience was very well organized. I received all the necessary information in advance, so I knew exactly what to expect and what the next stage of the trip would be. Our driver Simon was fantastic, and seeing how professionally he organized and looked after the entire group, it was clear that he truly enjoys what he does and is very good at it. Our guide also had an enormous amount of knowledge and, through his respectful behavior and way of speaking, emphasized the seriousness and importance of this place. It was a very meaningful experience, and I highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was extremely eloquent and clearly had a great deal of knowledge about the history and the site. The whole experience was very well organized, and everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Simon, our driver was very kind and friendly, which made the journey even more pleasant. All the information we needed was provided by the organizer, so we always knew what to expect. A truly meaningful experience and a trip I would definitely recommend.

Your visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau is handled end to end, with round-trip transport from Krakow hotels so you won't need to plan logistics.

An expert English-speaking guide shares context at both camps, with prebooked entry, headsets for audio, and staff on hand if any issues arise during the visit.

At the first part of Auschwitz, follow your guide through camp buildings and commemorative areas while hearing stories of people held here.

Then continue to Birkenau, seeing remnants of barracks and wide grounds as your guide explains its role in the wider camp system today.

We arrived in the town of Auschwitz without realizing that we were supposed to have purchased tickets a week in advance. We booked a last-minute tour for the following day; Max helped us out—he understood our situation—and we were able to visit the camp in two separate visits since we were traveling with children. Max assured us there would be no problem and arranged the visit without any issues, keeping us informed at all times by phone. Thank you very much!
