Here, you will learn in detail about the establishment and early history of the camp, as well as various significant events that occurred at this site. This location also houses the main section of the exhibition, providing a comprehensive insight into the camp’s history and its impact.
After a brief 15-minute pause, the group proceeded to Auschwitz II - Birkenau, which constitutes the second segment of the tour. This section provides a clearer understanding of the vastness and magnitude of the events that took place there. The atmosphere during this part of the tour is more reflective and thoughtful.

Everything was great ! Nice tour and value for money !
A must tour for everyone. Our driver and tour guide Igor was just amazing 🤩 he was passionate and truly dedicated to his role. Could not have done enough for anyone. Some of the tour is obviously heartbreaking 💔 but it’s so important that this story continues to be shared. Thanks again Julie & Jennifer 🏴
The tour was of a fantastic care and professionalism! The team works very well. Igor was very punctual in picking up the hotel and drove from the city to the museum with extreme zeal and lightness. Then, fortunately, it was also our group guide. Demonstrated a very good historical knowledge and respect! Thanks for everything
Very very delicate and nice experience. Drivers were very available and nice, hower you dont know Which guide you will get. Some are young some old, our guide Kapi she was nice, very informed you can clearly see she was doing this since a lot of time and with passion and love. She was a bit fast on the tour, I saw the others groups stopped more, and explain more things historical and she did more examples of people and experience, and she was speaking not too loud. At the end of the tour she went out fast and we did not even had time for questions. But overall all was very nice organized from a camp to the museum
Brilliant trip Igor was very knowlagable and helpful from the moment he picked us up until dropping us off.
The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. The company gave me updates on times of pick up, drivers name and vehicle he was driving. Our drive and tour guide was Igor. He was amazing from pick up to drop off. His knowledge of the camps was amazing. I would definitely recommend.
