Step by Step
This guided visit from Krakow to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial is much more than a day trip – it’s a powerful lesson in history and remembrance. Over 7 hours, you’ll walk through the places where millions of people suffered one of humanity’s darkest chapters.
Your experience starts with pickup in Krakow and a 90‑minute drive to the site. On the way, you’ll have time to prepare emotionally and learn more about the historical context. At Auschwitz I, your guide will lead you for around 2 hours, sharing the story and purpose of the first camp with care and respect.
After a short break, you’ll continue to Auschwitz II – Birkenau. Here you’ll walk among the remains of barracks, watchtowers and the original railway tracks used in the Nazis’ extermination plan. This part of the visit, lasting about 1.5 hours, helps you grasp the true scale of the genocide and its impact on the world.
This is not just a historical overview. The combination of facts, testimonies and preserved spaces encourages deep personal reflection, creating an experience that stays with you long after you leave.
