Who has planned a trip to Poland without thinking about going to Auschwitz-Birkenau? With this tour, you'll cross the fences of the most famous concentration camp in the world and learn about its history.
Auschwitz-Birkenau Private Day Trip
After picking you up from your hotel in Warsaw, we'll set off southwards in a private vehicle. After a four hour drive we'll arrive at the Polish town of Oświęcim, where the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was located and where over a million people were murdered by the Nazi regime.
Once we enter, we'll have a guided tour of the most striking points of the Auschwitz site. First, we'll enter the prison blocks, where, through their exhibitions, we'll be able to get a first impression of the horrors that these walls witnessed.
We'll then make one of the essential and most terrifying stops on this tour: the gas chambers and cremation ovens, which are the only ones that were preserved after the end of World War 2.
The second part of this tour will take us to Birkenau, also known as Auschwitz II, built as an extermination camp, where the barracks, the latrines, the cremation ovens, and the chambers that the Nazis destroyed before their escape in 1945 were located.
We'll also get one of the most famous images of the place: the train tracks where the trains arrived with the prisoners, who could never imagine what their cruel fate would be.
At the end of the visit, you'll have free time for lunch. With our betteries recharged, we'll return to Warsaw and take you back to your hotel.

Important
- When booking, please make sure the name you enter matches your ID exactly. Any discrepancy may result in being denied entry to Auschwitz.
- Visits to the camp can only be conducted by official guides accredited by the museum itself, not by external guides. Guide confirmation is only guaranteed between 12 and 16 hours before the activity.
- All operators require a minimum group size to access the camp with a guide. If this minimum is not reached, the activity may be cancelled or rescheduled.
- On our end, tickets and a guide are secured as soon as the minimum group size is reached. However, for last-minute bookings, guides may not be available and the activity could be cancelled.
- The activity will be considered definitively confirmed once you receive a detailed service description and your hotel pickup time from the local team.
- If, for any reason, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum does not confirm the private visit, the local team will get in touch to offer alternative options. If none of the proposed alternatives are suitable, you may cancel your booking free of charge and book the group visit instead, which is generally available more frequently.
