From Vienna (AUT): Auschwitz-Birkenau — Private Transfer

Challenging

Private round-trip transfer from Vienna to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum. Door-to-door service from your hotel or apartment, carefully timed to your museum entry slot.

Private Transfer from Vienna to Auschwitz-Birkenau (One-Way or Round-Trip)

Since March 2025, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial no longer sells tickets on-site. All visitors must book in advance online at visit.auschwitz.org. If you already have your ticket for the standard 3.5-hour guided tour, this private international transfer takes care of your transportation needs.

We offer flexible options tailored to your travel plans: choose a One-Way transfer (Vienna to Auschwitz or Auschwitz to Vienna) or a full Round-Trip service.

For transfers starting from Vienna, your driver will collect you from your hotel or apartment approximately 5.5 to 6 hours before your scheduled museum entry time to ensure a timely arrival, taking you directly to the Memorial entrance. If you book the Round-Trip option, your driver will be waiting on-site during your 3.5-hour visit to take you safely back to Vienna.

Door-to-door, private, and precisely timed to your booking — so you can focus entirely on the visit itself without worrying about cross-border logistics.

Please note: This service is designed for visitors holding a ticket for the standard 3.5-hour guided tour of Auschwitz-Birkenau only. It does not apply to Study Visits or special programmes.

What's included?
    • Private transport — round-trip or one-way from/to your Vienna hotel or apartment
    • Professional driver — English-speaking and dedicated to your service
