Auschwitz + Birkenau and Wieliczka Salt Mine in One Day

This is the ultimate combination tour for those who want to experience some of the most significant history in Poland. You will visit one of the largest and most infamous Nazi concentration camps Auschwitz and Birkenau, as well as visiting the historic Wieliczka Salt Mine.

The day will begin with a tour of the Auschwitz and Birkenau Camps. The UNESCO World Heritage Site is the memorial dedicated to all those who suffered and died at the camps. The tour will give you a shocking insight on the living conditions and atrocities that took place there.

A short while after your tour of Auschwitz and Birkenau you will be taken to explore the Wieliczka Salt Mine. You will descend 135 metres below ground level (approx. 380 steps down) to Level 1 of the Salt Mine. Here you will be able to see the skilfully crafted salt chambers, salt churches and sculptures before you make your ascent to the surface in the lift.

You will also receive a FREE Schindler’s List Walking Tour, where you can discover the hidden streets of the Jewish Quarter.
