About the tour

  • The entire tour, including travel, will take approximately 7-8 hours. The first part, the Museum visit, is about 2 hours, and the visit to Birkenau will take approximately 1 hour.
  • During the tour, you will see a permanent exhibition, original camp buildings in the main part of the complex (Auschwitz), and the most important sites in Brzezinka (Birkenau). Konzentrationslager (KL) Auschwitz was established as a result of Nazi policy conducted in the territory of occupied Poland to destroy the Polish state by means of mass deportations and systematic extermination.
  • The KL Auschwitz camp was the largest Nazi concentration camp and extermination center, so we ask that you maintain due respect for the memory of the victims. During the tour, the group will be accompanied by an experienced museum guide who will tell tourists step by step about the sad fate of the camp victims.
  • Please remember that the trip's program does not include a lunch break.
  • Because the camp is situated in a vast open space, please remember to bring clothes that provide adequate protection against the prevailing weather conditions.
