True horror brought to life - The tour was excellent, from the informative video on the way to Auschwitz to the well informed tour guide who gave a very insightful glimpse into the horror that was the holocaust......something that should not be missed by anyone.

Worth it - Absolutely worth it, my tour guide was fantastic. The company was even better as they were very communicative with me over Whatsapp even answering questions I had not pertaining to the tour. It was my first time in Poland and was essentially flying blind, they made it so easy and were so nice. Couldn't recommend them enough for this trip and experience!

Great tour but... - The communication before hand was good. Pick up was on time and 5 mins walk from our hotel. The tour and tour guide were great and would recommend. However we found the minibus extremely uncomfortable. I was sat on the back row with my mother and father, there was no leg room. There was one more seat in the row and someone did occupy it. Basically we literally couldn't move for 1hr 30mins each way. This was uncomfortable as I am quite tall. It was a 7hr day and the only time we were given for a break was 25min at the first camp this is the only place you can have something to eat and drink as it is not permitted on the bus. All this being said we did enjoy the tour and glad we did it.
