  • All participants must provide their full name and contact details at the time of booking. Please ensure that the name on your ID exactly matches the name provided at the booking to avoid issues at the entrance
  • The museum can change your visit time, so your pickup time may change accordingly. You will receive final confirmation via email 1–2 days before the tour. Due to the extremely high visitors’ volume and internal policies, Auschwitz-Birkenau reserves the right to cancel tours or guides at any time, even a few days or hours before the visit.

  • Please bear in mind that there are hundreds of tourists visiting the museum every day and keeping your own pace of sightseeing is not possible

  • Students (age 13-26) must have a valid ID
  • Standard group size in the museum with 1 guide (if not specified in the options) is up to 30 people. For the small group option, it's up to 15 people
