From Wroclaw: Auschwitz Birkenau Guided Tour with Transfers is a full-day guided tour departing from Wroclaw, travelling to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum in southern Poland. The tour begins with a hotel pick-up in Wroclaw and is led by a licensed museum guide available in English, French, Italian, or Portuguese. Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration and extermination camp complex, operated between 1940 and 1945 and is estimated to have claimed the lives of around 1.1 million people, the majority of them Jewish deportees.

At the site, the guide leads visitors through the preserved barracks, barbed-wire fences, crematoria, and gas chambers that document the scale and nature of the camp's operation. The tour also covers the permanent exhibitions, which include personal belongings of prisoners, furnishings from prisoner quarters, and artefacts belonging to Jewish deportees, offering a direct account of individual lives lost. Booking covers the guided tour at both the Auschwitz I and Birkenau sections of the memorial, transport from and back to your Wroclaw hotel, and the services of a licensed guide throughout the day.
