    About this experience

    Death camps a has become a symbol of World War II atrocities. Created by the Nazis in occupied Poland in 1940 near the town of "Oświęcim". Immediately after the war ended camps were transformed into the museum, that was in 1947. Since then visitors can see the conditions in which people lived and literally feel the enormity of atrocities perpetrated upon them. The current museum occupies an area of two extant parts of the former Nazi concentration camp – Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau. Together they hold an extensive area, where the prisoners’ barracks, the ruins of the crematoria and gas chambers, and the railway platform at Birkenau are located. Our driver will pick you up from the arranged place (eg. hotel). You will then be transferred to the place of your destination. Our driver will ensure that you are not having any problems with finding yourself in a new place. He will then wait until you have finished sightseeing and drive you back at your place.

    Decent trip to a surreal experience

    The car could have been a little cleaner. It was difficult to hear the guide sometimes while walking.

    The best company!

    I wholeheartedly recommend this company! Wiktoria, who works in the office, organized literally everything for us. She handled the airport transfer, the trip to Auschwitz-Birkenau, and the salt mines very professionally. Our driver Adam picked us up for the tours and told us about Krakow's history along the way. He was very friendly and polite. They both made our stay in Krakow truly special.

    Harassment

    I booked this tour, it would have bern almost £80. I cancelled it and decided to get tickets directly from the Auschwitz museum and make my own way - snd for half the price. After cancelling my trip I received 3 emails from Tripadvisor quoting this company - in addition to a WhatsApp message. I'd advise anyone to buy directly from Auschwitz and make your own way.

    Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Krakow.

    How much does Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up cost?

    +

    Prices start at $169 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Krakow usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Krakow is not rushed.

    Is Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 471 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Krakow, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up?

    +

    Around 165 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Krakow can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Krakow and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Krakow: Auschwitz-Birkenau Guided Tour & Hotel Pick Up start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Krakow within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Krakow?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Krakow experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Complete Cracow Bike Tour (small group of maximum 15 people!), Krakow–Zakopane: Cable Car, Chocholow Baths, Cheese & Vodka, Krakow: Zakopane & Hot Springs Tour with Cable Car (Hotel Pickup). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Krakow?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Krakow?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
