We're offering you a
2-night historical 4* Krakow break including a tour of the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp from just
£159pp, or go for
3 nights from just
£209pp. That's a saving of
up to 47% off IWC’s prices.
A city steeped in culture and rich in history, today's deal will allow you to experience Krakow's turbulent past. Staying at the 4*
Sympozjum Hotel, your elegant double or twin room features all the comforts of home, plus you'll have access to the hotel's pool to really help you unwind. However, we're confident you won't be spending much time in your room with one of Europe's oldest cities on your doorstep!
From the Wawel Castle and Florian Gate (the only remaining part of the medieval city walls) to Pałac Biskupów Krakowskich (the former home of Pope John Paul II), Krakow's Old Town is a must for all visitors. Featuring classic architecture, winding roads and cafes, there's something for everyone; if you're more of a night owl, it's also home to a plethora of lively bars, restaurants and theatres.
As part of today's deal, you'll see for yourself the atrocities that occurred at Auschwitz-Birkenau. Built by the Third Reich during World War II, it has become a symbol of the inhumanity of the Nazi regime. Led by an English-speaking guide, you'll head from Krakow by coach to the UNESCO-listed Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum. The sobering half-day tour will give you the chance to visit the Martyrdom Museum and commemorate the lives of those who died in the extermination camps during the Holocaust.
Flights are included and depart from Stansted and East Midlands airports. Flights from Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds Bradford International, Newcastle, Edinburgh and Liverpool are also available from a £30pp supplement.
