Inaugurated in 1940, Auschwitz was the Nazi’s largest concentration camp for Polish and other international captives. Prisoners were subject to the brutalities of Hitlerian fascism such as forced isolation, planned extermination through starvation, strenuous labor, cruel experimenting, and sudden mortality due to individual or mass killings. It is undoubtedly a place of significant importance to visit.

Very Sad Day but very educational - Everyone should take a trip to Auschwitz. It would highly educational from the start. The guide was great and very informative with both facts and stories of Auschwitz. We visited both sites and both sites are very upsetting but I believe everyone should go to be educated on what happened at this time as it is absolutely heart breaking. Although the site is a sad place the tour was very well set out and alot of information was learnt on this day.

03/03/2025 - Was apprehensive when a FB page said, don’t book through trip advisor as they are often cancelled!
This worry was totally unnecessary as Lucas our driver arrived exactly on time.
We were messaged the day before the tour with a hotel pickup time and the offer of a lunch box . I had a gf sandwich all freshly prepared and far better quality than anything that can be obtained in the UK and very reasonably priced.
Our tour guide provided a lot of information about the camps however, I do think that time in the museums are a little rushed. However, this would not deter me from choosing to use this service again.

A day to remember - A visit to auschwitz is something that is on many people's bucket list. And yes, you must have seen it. An indelible impression, disbelief at what happened there. What can still be seen today makes you feel the shivers and disbelief through your body.
A guided tour is absolutely recommended. They take you into history and tell you things you probably didn't know before.
Lunch was provided by the driver who picked us up at the hotel. In advance neat contact about whatsapp.
Definitely recommended to do

Essential visit to Auschwitz - though provoking, humbling experience. felt the whole process was very rushed and no time to take it all in. nobody's fault as the sheer volume of people dictated the speed of the tour.

Must do experience - Very informative, the guide was very good and respectful. It's a place we felt we had to visit. Make sure you book an organised tour in advance- the queues for tickets on the day we're ridiculous. Only slight niggle- we wish we had more time to read the plaques and information boards. It's a lot of standing and walking so make sure you are able to do this for long periods

Could not keep up with the guide - very fast paced-long walks, trouble keeping up with the group, large distances traveled by foot with a lot of steps up and down
