DAY 3 – Auschwitz & Birkenau

We thought hard about how appropriate it was to include this morning’s destination – Auschwitz and Birkenau – on a holiday itinerary. As a company, our philosophy is that we try to inform our clients about all aspects of the countries we visit. Our guided tour to Auschwitz and Birkenau is extremely moving and thought-provoking, but it is optional. You can choose instead to stay in Krakow for the whole day. Now a museum and monument, Auschwitz and Birkenau have been left virtually as they were when liberated in 1945. (B) + Included Experience – Guided tours of Auschwitz and Birkenau
