Auschwitz-Birkenau Private Day Trip

It is hard to imagine a trip to Poland without including a visit to the poignant site of Auschwitz-Birkenau. This experience allows you to step beyond the gates of the world's most infamous concentration camp, immersing yourself in its profound history.

Private Day Trip to Auschwitz-Birkenau

Your journey begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Warsaw, after which we will head southward in a private vehicle. Following a four-hour drive, we will reach the town of O?wi?cim, the site of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp where the Nazi regime tragically claimed the lives of over a million individuals.

Upon arrival, a guided tour will take you through the most significant areas of the Auschwitz complex. Our first stop will be the prison blocks, where the exhibitions offer a chilling insight into the terrifying events that unfolded within these walls.

Next, we will visit one of the most harrowing locations on this tour: the gas chambers and cremation ovens, the only structures that remain intact since the end of World War II.

Continuing the tour, we will proceed to Birkenau, or Auschwitz II, designed as an extermination camp. Here, significant remnants await us, including barracks, latrines, cremation ovens, and the gas chambers that the Nazis destroyed as they retreated in 1945.

A memorable highlight will be seeing the train tracks, symbolizing the tragic arrival of prisoners who arrived unaware of their horrific fate.

After the tour, you will have some free time for lunch. Once we are refreshed, we will head back to Warsaw, where you will be returned to your hotel.

Essential Information

• Please ensure that the name provided during booking matches your ID exactly, as any differences could result in denial of entry to Auschwitz.
• Only accredited guides from the museum are allowed to conduct tours. Confirmation of the guide's availability is provided between 12 and 16 hours prior to the tour.
• There is a minimum group requirement to access the camp with a guide; failure to meet this threshold may lead to cancellation or rescheduling of the tour.
• Once the minimum group number is confirmed, tickets and guide services are secured. However, for last-minute bookings, guide availability cannot be guaranteed, which may result in cancellation.
• Your booking is confirmed once you receive a detailed description of the service along with your hotel pick-up time from the local team.
• If the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum is unable to confirm your private visit, the local team will reach out to offer alternative options. Should these not be suitable, you may cancel without any fees and consider joining a group tour that typically runs more frequently.
