Kraków Trip Overview
We’ll pick you up at the meeting point we previously agree on and once in Auschwitz you will meet your official tour guide for a group guided tour (they do not allow private tours inside).
Actually Auschwitz, comprises three concentration camps in all its extension. The first was built for the purpose of housing political prisoners, but this was changing over time, as your private guide will explain in more detail. This complex is where the so-called “hunger cells” are located, where hundreds of prisoners died of starvation.
Auschwitz II- Birkenau, is the second complex to which we will arrive after traveling a short distance, it is still today the site of the crematoriums and the gas chamber. This complex was created with the aim of being “the final solution to the Jewish problem”, and in reality it is a complex of death.
Auschwitz III- Monowitz practically no longer exists, but it was a forced labor prison.
At the end of the tour, your private driver will take you back to Krakow.
