He was very friendly, witty and made the whole tour fun. His knowledge of the mine was incredible. Our transport back to Krakow arrived on time and again the driver was friendly.

Our tour guide Jacob was very informative and was very professional. At the end of the tour we were given the chance to ask any questions. The first part of the tour is around 1.5 hours followed by a 10 minute break. The bus was waiting to take us to the second camp which is mostly outside for approximately 1 hour.

14.Auschwitz-Birkenau Skip-the-Line Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 373 reviews · 6 hours · from $114

Travel from Katowice to Auschwitz-Birkenau in about six hours with transport, skip-the-line entry, and an English-speaking museum guide. Visit Auschwitz I and Birkenau, including original buildings, the permanent exhibition, and remains linked to the gas chambers. Expect a serious, emotional visit, not a casual day out.

“The trip was well organised and we were met at the pick up point by our host. And then driven to the location. There was a short delay getting in but nowhere near as long as I have read with other operators and all seemed to be in control. The guide was very knowledgable as you would expect for a site of such importance and hard to fully comprehend what took place here. This is definitely somewhere everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. Well organised and highly recommended tour. Thank you.”

She provided me with so much information, answered all my questions, and even went above and beyond to make my first-time experience in Krakow worthwhile. Thank you so much, Magda! This tour is a must with Magda. She’ll tell you everything you need to know and then some. Also, she’s a world traveler and has such a wealth of knowledge to share about all of her experiences. :)”
