Review of a guided Auschwitz and Birkenau day trip from Krakow, with Italian guide, transport, timing, value, and practical tips.
“Organizzazione perfetta, trasferimento puntuale e confortevole su bus da turismo. La guida è stata esaustiva raccontando i punti salienti della storia purtroppo è a noi nota. La visita è avvenuta in una giornata fredda e nervosa, il che ha reso ancor meglio l'idea, (si fa per dire) di quanto sia stata difficile ed insostenibile la vita dei deportati. La visita è un'esperienza che nella vita tutti dovremmo fare almeno una volta.”
