Overview
The Auschwitz and Birkenau tour is a guided visit to the former Nazi concentration and extermination camps, offering a powerful and educational insight into one of the darkest chapters of human history. The tour begins at Auschwitz I, where visitors see original barracks, prison blocks, personal belongings of victims, photographs, and exhibitions that explain how the camp operated and the scale of the crimes committed there.
The visit then continues to Auschwitz II–Birkenau, the vast extermination camp where the majority of victims were murdered. Walking through the remains of gas chambers, watchtowers, railway tracks, and wooden barracks provides a sobering understanding of the industrial nature of the Holocaust. Throughout the tour, a licensed guide explains the historical context, individual stories, and significance of the site, allowing time for reflection and remembrance. It is an emotionally challenging but deeply important experience.

You will be taken DA to visit the second part of the tour - Birkenau (Auschwitz II), just 3 minutes away, which is the largest camp built and operated with the specific purpose of making Europe "Judenrein" (free from Jews). The same Guide continues a moving field conference in the village of Brzezinka, which was built in 1941 on orders from Heinrich Himmler (SS commander) and could hold around 90,000 prisoners. You will be told terrible stories of unimaginable living conditions, as well as cruel selection and pseudoscientific medical experiments conducted DA eminent Nazi doctors, including Josef Mengele. A story about the soldiers of the 60th Army of the Ukrainian First Front who opened the gates of Auschwitz on January 27, 1945, which meant the final liberation, concludes your tour with the feeling that this genocide should never have happened and cannot happen again.
