★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,510 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $83

Review of the Auschwitz-Birkenau tour from Krakow, with practical advice on guides, timing, transport, cost, comfort, and what to expect.

“We had a very interesting and moving day, not least due to our tour guide Mikael. He was incredibly knowledgeable, pleasant and showed great respect to the victims e.g. by keeping a three minute silence while we stood next to Block 11 and as we walked along the railroad tracks towards one of the crematoriums in Birkenau to encourage us to think of this as our memorial walk. It was tremendously touching and it all made a profound impact on us. We could easily have spent the whole day with Mikael just listening to him share his knowledge. We highly recommend a visit to Auchwitz-Birkenau.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 144 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $120

Review of the Auschwitz-Birkenau tour from Krakow, with transport, museum guidance, timing advice, costs, walking demands, and practical tips.

“The tour is a long day with 3hour round trip from Krakow, but very harrowing at the same time rewarding. The day can be long but ensure you pick your trip provider well, as we heard of some very poorly organised, early starting trips or worse no tickets available upon arrival. The experience with Viator was well organised, very little waiting at Auschwitz with an acceptable 10.30am pick up, dropping at 6.30pm . Tour was well organised in smallish groups and gave details of the history of Auschwitz and Birkenau from its concept to the liberation by soviet soldiers in 1945. Many of the stories were harrowing, and I came…”

14.1 Day Trip Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum Guided Tour from Krakow

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 132 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $29

Auschwitz-Birkenau from Krakow for $29.99, with hotel pickup, entrance fees, an English guide, headsets, and practical visit tips.

“A very moving, sad and educational experience. Our driver was on time, helpful, responsive and lovely. We found the tour guide at the museum/memorial quite hard to understand and not very engaging. The headsets would drop out if you were too far behind, so at times it was quite rushed. We would’ve liked to hear more about the history of WW2 and we felt the tour guide could have provided more information. Overall, a very important experience that I would highly recommend.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 101 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $35

Explore Krakow’s medieval streets beneath the Main Square on a 90-minute guided tour with skip-the-line entry and vivid multimedia exhibits.

“Could have done the tour without a guide and got way more information. The tour was supposed to be 2 hours. It lasted 1 hour 15 minutes. Paid a lot for a guided tour and the tour guide didn't speak enough English to teach us much. They skipped past whole parts of the exhibits. Overall disappointed in the guided part. The museum itself was lovely and well planned out.”
