J'ai pu visité Auchwitz. Un taxi est venu nous chercher à l'hôtel pour nous emmener au centre de Cracovie où un bus nous attendait. Nous étions accompagné par un guide qui parlait anglais mais dont le propos était très clair (de plus, le propos était traduit ensuite en français par une passagère du bus). Arrivé sur place une autre guide nous a fait la visite en français. Malgré la dureté du lieu, la visite était très intéressante. Je recommande. Seul bémol, l'horaire à un peu varié (9h50 au lieu de 9h, nous avons été prévenu la veille au soir mais nous étions bien accompagné).

Notre guide française était exceptionnelle, passionnée avec des explications claires et très intéressante. Nous avons adoré ce moment plein d'émotion. C'était une rêve pour moi de visiter ce lieu témoin d'atrocité et je remercie encore notre guide. Pour le trajet tout était hyper bien organisé les déplacements tout était vraiment niquel rien a dire de mauvais

We chose this tour for a later pick up time because many others started at around 6am. Unfortunately it was changed at the last minute and we had to be picked up at the earlier time and different location. HOWEVER, the driver was lovely and kept an open line of communication, he helped understand the process of the tour and answered our questions

    The time slot of tour is never at the one that you book it, they offer many different timeslots but at the end they change the day before.

    The overall experience was very good at Auschwitz, however, the transfers were poor. Start time was delayed by 2 hours, when on the bus the guide only spoke German, so when arriving at the venue you had no idea where to go. The tour itself was quite rushed as there is so much to see, however, there was a lot of time spent waiting to start the tour I felt this could have been smoother allowing more time at the camp museum.

    La visita ha sido increíble. Hay que destacar al conductor Sylwester, no llega a ser por el y no conseguíamos las entradas para el tour en español. Super agradable y puntual. Pd: Nos llevó a desayunar a un restaurante americano.
