Description - What to expect
Join an Auschwitz tour from Krakow and visit the concentration camp used during the second world war. Auschwitz-Birkenau was founded in 1940 by the Nazis and was the largest concentration camp in operation during the war. It became the final resting place for millions of people, mostly Jews and Poles, who were murdered in gas chambers.Upon arrival, visit the museum and memorial in the suburbs of Oświęcim, about 60 kilometers west of Krakow. Then, approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes later, meet your professional guide for an in-depth tour. Pass through the gate with the inscription "Arbeit macht frei" to enter Auschwitz I, where your guide will show you around the preserved area and explain the history of the site.
Then, continue your Auschwitz tour with a visit to the second camp at Birkenau, where mass killings took place, and learn about the tragic circumstances of hundreds of thousands of prisoners.
