Panstwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau - Explore KL Auschwitz 1. Pass through the iron gate with the infamous slogan Arbeit Macht Frei. Witness 22 brick barracks that imprisoned hundreds of thousands of Holocaust victims. The most harrowing is block number 11, known as the prison within the prison. Block 11 housed special torture chambers, including dark cells and standing cells, where prisoners faced various punishments. The first experiments with Zyklon B for mass killings occurred in this block. The camp’s only preserved crematorium and gas chamber are located at its end.
After visiting KL Auschwitz 1, take a minivan to KL Auschwitz 2 Birkenau. This section is 25 times larger than Auschwitz 1 and was the largest of the death camps, where over 1,100,000 people were murdered. Conclude your visit at the Memorial to honor all the victims of the Nazi genocide.

A great trip, well organised - The tour guide was very knowledgeable
Although it noted pick up at hotel, we had to go to another meeting point, advised the night before. This was about 15 mins away, but apart from that all was very well organised

Horror - À dramatic story! So sad for all of them. Innocent people, humains! Murdered! Must never forget that that can happen again in history... Not so much for me, but my children and grand children... and off spring!

Visit for the duty of memory - A very important memory duty to do.
A guided tour in French, thank you very much to our Guide who gave us a lot of very detailed and interesting information about the two camps of Auschwitz.
A very striking visit, but one that I advise to make.
On the other hand, it seems that there is a general ledger of the names of the deportees at the end of the visit but we have not been told about it, which is a shame.
Good organization of pickup and visit with a small lunch box.

Organization and visit to the top. - Excellent organization.
Pension pickup.
Car and driver on top.
Guided tour in French on Auschwitz Birkenau by an excellent Joanna Guide.
Real good.
She explained us well and knew how to convey an emotion... while the place itself cannot do without emotions... thank you 🙏
And thank you to Kuba our driver for taking care of us so well.
Top organization.

Day tour - Was to be picked up at hotel but was moved to central location! Was good tour but was at fast pace that some were unable to keep up and missed out on talk by the your guide especially at second location. Lunch was good.

Last minute change of booking and no lunch box. - Our booking was changed 2 hours in front of the starting time, we agreed. However, we never received a lunch box. When asked for a partial refund they told us they made a lunch box. (We just never received it.)

Very unfriendly guide - The tour guide was cranky. Appointments were changed 1 day in advance to our disadvantage. The lunchbox was also inedible
