Delve into history on a guided tour of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial Museum! Ideal for those keen on learning about World War II, this full-day experience offers a profound understanding of the infamous concentration camps, located just outside Krakow.

Begin your journey with a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan ride from Krakow to KL Auschwitz 1. Walk through the iron gate with its chilling inscription, "Work Sets You Free," and explore the 22 brick barracks that housed Holocaust victims.

Visit Block 11, known as the "prison within a prison," where you'll learn about the torment faced by prisoners and see the remnants of the only remaining gas chamber and crematorium in Auschwitz 1.

Travel to KL Auschwitz 2 Birkenau, a site 25 times larger than the first camp, and witness the vast scale of the atrocities committed. Reflect on the past as you explore this solemn site.

Conclude your visit at the Memorial, where you can pay your respects to the victims before returning to Krakow. Book now for an insightful and educational journey through a pivotal part of world history!
