The museum can change your visit time, so your pickup time may change accordingly. You will receive final confirmation via email 1–2 days before the tour. Due to the extremely high visitors’ volume and internal policies, Auschwitz-Birkenau reserves the right to cancel tours or guides at any time, even a few days or hours before the visit. If this happens, you will be informed and if possible, offered an alternative date or program. Departures from Krakow may take place in the following hours: 6.00am - 1.00pm
All visitors are required to pass through security checks before entering the museum grounds
The allowed dimensions of a bag you can take with you are 30x20x10 (A4 size). You will be asked to leave your bigger belongings in the car (they will be locked and supervised by the driver)
Please bear in mind that there are hundreds of tourists visiting the museum every day and keeping your own pace of sightseeing is not possible
Not recommended for children aged 14 and under. Please bring your own child seat or child sling when travelling with a child
Students (age 13-26) must have a valid ID
Standard group size in the museum with 1 guide (if not specified in the options) is up to 30 people. For the small group option, it's up to 15 people

Ophaal punt lichtelijk chaotisch Bus nummer klopte niet. Gids was fantastisch. Jammer dat we de gids niet konden bedanken maar ik begrijp dat deze door de organisatie ter plaatse wordt geregeld Heeft het geweldig gedaan.

we got the guided tour thinking we wanted to know the history. We were rushed around the site and for most of the tour we couldn't hear the guy as he kept speeding off and the headset kept losing connection. We struggled to keep up. Its a shame because we really did want to have time to process ever

De organisatie Hello Crakow was zeer stipt bij het oppikken , heel vriendelijk en een zeer duidelijke uitleg! ook de gidsen waren zeer vriendelijk, spraken duidelijk Engels en gaven een heldere uitleg waar nodig. Er is ter plaatse een restaurant waar je iets kan kopen om te eten en te drinken. Je kan kiezen uit zowel warme gerechten alsook uit broodjes. Dit is wel iets duurder in aankoop.

Nella esperienza, bene organizzata, si visitano i campi o ciò che ne è rimasto, con la sensazione di un pugno nello stomaco. Molto brava la guida a farci sentire sulla nostra pelle le terribili condizioni del campo e la crudeltà dei persecutori.

Gids was goed. Het tijd stip van ophalen met de bus was bij de boeking afgesproken tijd 9.15 uur maar werd vreemd genoeg naar 12.40 verzet. Als je zelf een redelijk strakke planning hebt is dit op zijn zachts gezegd heel vervelend. Stel voor dat je een vlucht hebt om 20.00 uur hoe dan?

Although we booked a later trip we were brought forward to an early trip as explained in the pre-booking blurb. Details on pick up were clear to the point we had vehicle colour, registration and driver's name in advance of the pick up. All worked well.

Only thing stopping an excellent is ths speed you go through. I understand thousands of people go through every day, but it would have been nice to take a bit more in a bit more stock of the feeling of the place. The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable. Apart from the fast pace it was.

Der Fahrer war absolut perfekt! Guter Fahrstil und viel Information über die Stadt und Tour im Auto. Leider müssen wir sagen, dass die Tourleiterin in Ausschwitz eine Katastrophe war! Sie zeigte durch Ihr Körpersprache und Erklärung, wie unmotiviert sie war. Ihr Englisch hätte besser sein können, man hatte keine ********** Fragen zu stellen. Wir haben andere Guides vor uns und hinter uns gehört, die viel mehr zum jeweiligen Punkt erklärt haben und auch sehr deutlich sprachen. Sie wirkten motiv

We took two tours with Hello Cracow during our visit and couldn’t recommend them enough. Our guides were knowledgeable and friendly, the updates from the office team regarding pick up locations, timings and coach number/driver name etc was extremely helpful. Highly recommend!

A sobering and moving experience. A privilege to have been able to pay respects to the many millions murdered at Auschwitz. Organisation was impeccable and the guide was outstandingly good - extremely knowledgeable and clearly sensitive to the impact the visit had on all who took part in the tour.

Zeer interessante rondleiding. Tijdsduur is te kort! Gids vertelde veel over waar we langskwamen, maar de groep was zo groot dat ze alweer andere dingen aan het vertellen was terwijl we het vorige nog niet eens hadden gezien. Hierdoor mis je regelmatig informatie. Iets meer tijd en rust zou heel fijn zijn geweest!

Visita per turisti con poco tempo e vogliono un’infarinatura dei luoghi e degli argomenti. Precisa, puntuale. Seria. E molto abbordabile, rispetto ad altre, di identico livello e che costano anche il doppio Ma è Come mangiare un menù turistico, la vera cena è un’altra cosa…

Der Service war ausgezeichnet, alles war perfekt geplant. Aber was mich am meisten beindruckt hat war die Führung durch Museum und Auschwitz-Birkenau durch den Guide. Er hat durch seine sehr persönlichen und eindrucksvollen Schilderungen eine tiefen Eindruck hinterlassen.
