We booked a tour that included Auschwitz, Bikenau, and Schindler’s List. Everything was perfectly organized: pickup at the apartment, then to the meeting point, and from there to Auschwitz, where a guide was waiting for us. She gave a very thorough explanation and really took her time with everything—unfortunately, I don’t remember her name anymore—but she was truly excellent. From there, we went to Birkenau with the same guide. And it was very impressive. What those people went through there is unimaginable and terrible—there are no words for it. The Schindler’s List factory was portrayed differently. But also very interesting, though sometimes a bit long-winded. All in all, it was a truly impressive day, and I think everyone should see it so that this never happens again. Kind regards, Maria

The entire day was a well organised day. Dominic (our driver) ensured the day was streamline and all comfortable, while Katarina (incredible guide) at Auschwitz-Birkenau, provided an exceptional historical recount of this significant time in Krakow, Poland and Europe's history.

Without a doubt, the most remarkable experience of all the visits I've ever had. The story is told in detail by people who know it intimately, and most impressively, exactly where it all happened. It's incredible, extremely sad, but the visit is absolutely worth it!

Immerse yourself in WW2 history in Poland, combining the haunting Auschwitz-Birkenau and the inspiring Schindler's Factory Museum with expert guides leading the way at both attractions.

Experience the convenience of a central pickup and drop-off in Krakow on a Mercedes Benz minivan, so you can immerse yourself entirely in the experience.

Watch an informative documentary en route Auschwitz-Birkenau. Stand in the haunting remains of the largest Nazi death camp reserevd for Jews and political prisoners. Come face to face with the abject living conditions, torture mechanisms and extermination methods that the camp was infamous for.

Then, head to Schindler's Museum, an enamelware factory that is preserved to honor the man who saved over a thousand Jewish lives. The museum features a poignant exhibit honoring the iconic scene from ‘Schindler's List,’ where Schindler sees a little girl in a red coat during the Krakow ghetto's liquidation.

Your tour leader will drop you back at the pick-up point at the end of your tour.
