Full description
"Visit not 1, but 2 Polish UNESCO World Heritage Sites during your stay in Krakow. This special itinerary includes sightseeing Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration and extermination camp complex, followed by Wawel Castle, the historic residence of Polish monarchy. Take advantage of convenient transportation, the best Licensed Guides and skip-the-line tickets to both attractions. We guarantee a hassle-free journey from your accommodation and in between the sites. You will be picked up straight from your accommodation in Krakow by a professional driver in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle. You will first visit the original labour camp Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau, the massive extermination camp built to fulfil the horror of the “Final Solution” plan. Join a small group led by an Expert Guide with Auschwitz Museum License. You won't have to wait several hours in the queue with other tourists as we provide skip-the-line tickets for priority entrance. Hear in your native language the stories of daily starvation, harsh labour, punishment and death, but also of survival, resistance, escapes and liberation. We will provide special headsets so you’ll be able to hear your guide properly even if the area is busy and noisy. Regardless of traffic jams, we guarantee 3,5-hours sightseeing in Auschwitz-Birkenau and 2-hours in the Wawel Royal Castle with skip-the-line tickets. Enjoy the ride from Auschwitz directly to the Castle, where you will meet with a Licensed Castle Guide. You will join a small group of up to 15 people to take part in an amazing experience. The guide will show you the luxurious decor of the Wawel Castle State Rooms, sharing the chronicles of Polish royal dynasties and the legend of the Wawel Dragon. This tour combination is perfect if you're in the Krakow area only for a short time, want to discover medieval and modern history of Poland on the same day and save money by buying an amazing package!"

Good alternative

The tour was already fully booked, so they gave us an alternative. But Maybe it is there standard business model? Tho We where thankful that we still had the oppurtunity to go on this tour. It was very impressive and makes you quiet when you think about the horrors in this camp.
