School Trips - Krakow and Auschwitz

Inspired Travel

Home / Trips Abroad / Krakow and Auschwitz

At Inspired Travel we aim to offer well-designed and inspiring learning experiences for our groups, be they large or small in number. Over 90% of our groups return each year, satisfied with the personal service, professionalism and flexible style that we offer to group leaders from the first enquiry to their return.

As former teachers who have been group leaders ourselves, we have many years of experience in organising study tours so that you can be assured that whether it is Geography, History, Language, Science or Food Technology for example to all corners of Europe, the destinations are tried, tested and tweaked!

Our itineraries are bespoke and tailored to an individual group; nothing is "off the shelf" although some follow common themes. As such your itinerary is as individual to you as it is to us and we are happy to try to accommodate all requirements. Take a look at our tour and if there is anything not listed please ask for information and a tailor-made quote.

Why should you consider Inspired Travel for School Trips and Educational Visits?

With its beautiful Old Town and largest medieval market square in Europe, Krakow has numerous medieval buildings and monuments, the Royal Castle, narrow winding streets and church spires. Beyond the Old Town there is plenty to attract, the Kazimerz District - the former Jewish Quarter, Schindlers' Factory which featured in the film Schindler's List.

For any student visit to this part of Europe a thought-provoking visit to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camps for a guided tour is a must. It is also possible to visit the popular Wieliczka Salt Mines which date back to the Middle Ages and contributed to the prosperity of the city.
