When making the reservation, please provide the full names of all participants exactly as they appear on their passport or ID. The names will be checked at the museum entrance. If the details do not match, the museum may refuse entry to the memorial site.
Before the tour, the tour operator will contact you via WhatsApp or email to confirm the final meeting point. If you are not sure which meeting point is closest to your accommodation, we will be happy to advise you on the most convenient location. The exact pickup time will be provided one day before the tour.
All entrance tickets are arranged in advance by the tour operator as part of a group reservation with the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum. For this reason, ticket availability shown on the official museum website for individual visitors does not apply, as organised groups are booked from a separate ticket allocation. According to museum regulations, all tickets are personalised, and the tour operator must submit the full list of participants with their names when making the reservation. Once the list has been submitted, changes are very limited and usually only a small number of corrections can be made for the entire group. The exact entry time to the museum is assigned by the museum after the group reservation has been processed, based on availability at that moment. Because of this procedure, the originally selected tour start time may change and can be scheduled at any available visiting time on that day. For this reason, we kindly recommend not booking this tour on the day of your arrival or departure, as changes to the start time could affect your ability to participate in the tour.
In accordance with EU regulations about consumer rights, activities services are not subject to the right of withdrawal. Supplier cancellation policy will apply.

After arriving at Auschwitz, you will be introduced to a licensed local museum guide who will lead your group through Auschwitz I.

You will walk through the preserved brick barracks, see original prisoner blocks, historical photographs, personal belongings of the victims, and exhibitions documenting the history of the camp. You will also see the famous “Arbeit macht frei” gate, one of the most recognisable symbols of the site, as well as the last remaining gas chamber and crematorium. The guide will explain the purpose of the different buildings and provide important historical context, helping visitors understand the significance of this place in a respectful and informative way.

Auschwitz-Birkenau

Admission ticket included

After arriving at Auschwitz II–Birkenau, you will meet the same licensed museum guide who will continue the tour through the second part of the former camp complex. Birkenau was the largest part of the Auschwitz system and the main site where mass deportations and extermination took place during World War II. During the guided visit, you will see the famous railway gate and tracks, where trains carrying deported prisoners arrived. You will walk along the remains of the barracks where prisoners were held and see the ruins of the gas chambers and crematoria destroyed by the Nazis at the end of the war. The guide will explain how the camp functioned and describe the conditions prisoners faced. Visiting Birkenau helps visitors understand the immense scale of the camp and the tragic history connected with this place.
