Auschwitz Birkenau Self Guided and Guided Tour with Hotel Pickup

Visit Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II–Birkenau, two of the most significant memorial sites dedicated to the history of the Holocaust and World War II. During the guided tour of Auschwitz I, guests pass through the historic gate marked with the words “Arbeit macht frei” and explore the preserved brick barracks, which today serve as museum exhibition spaces. These exhibitions present the history of deportations, the everyday experiences of prisoners, and original items that once belonged to victims. The tour also includes the courtyard between Blocks 10 and 11 with the Execution Wall, Block 11 known as the “Death Block,” as well as the first gas chamber and crematorium. The second part of the visit continues at Auschwitz II–Birkenau, the largest area of the former camp complex. Here, visitors will see the main gate and railway ramp where deportation trains once arrived, along with the remains of prisoner barracks and the ruins of gas chambers and crematoria.
