    Panstwowe Muzeum Auschwitz-Birkenau

    The entire trip, including pick-ups from the hotel, takes approximately 7 hours. The journey from Krakow to the Auschwitz Museum takes about 1.5 hours. We always take a 20-30 minute break for our guests before starting to visit the museum. Visiting the Auschwitz I museum takes about 1.5 hours. Then drive to the Auschwitz II Birkenau museum about 5-10 minutes. Visiting the Auschwitz II Birkenau museum takes about 1 hour.Visit UNESCO World Heritage Site, a former Nazi concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau, where more than a million Jews and other prisoners were oppressed or killed during World War II. The flower strewn Death Wall, national memorials, gas chambers and crematoriums, preserved ruins, the remains of hundreds of barracks, watchtowers, the railway line and ramp - all this forms a moving testimony to the number of those who lost their lives. The tour is led by a sensitive, licensed and local guide which helps to understand the cruel things that happened there.
