Travel from Krakow to the Auschwitz-Birkenau area and choose the option that best matches your visit.
The standard Museum Guided Tour includes entry to Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau with a museum guide. Because guided-entry availability and museum time slots are limited, the final departure time and guided visit are subject to confirmation. If a guide cannot be secured, you will be contacted before the activity and may be offered self-guided museum entry at a different time, the Historical Sites Tour without museum entry, or a full refund.
Choose the Last Tickets option when available for confirmed museum entry and a guided visit at the listed time.
The Historical Sites Tour does not enter the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum grounds. Instead, travel with a local guide to historically significant locations outside the museum, including the Judenrampe, Monowitz, and the former IG Farben site, and learn about the wider history of the Auschwitz camp complex.
Travel from Krakow by shared transport and return to Krakow after your selected experience.
- Choose confirmed last tickets when secured guided entry is available
