We arrived with a group of other people in '06 only to find it closed for some renovations. The crowd were not impressed and left in a huff. We, however stuck around and were explaining the significance to our son (Sam) when the gate attendant saw our Canadian flags on our backpacks and immediatly invited us in. We had a private tour and took many pictures both inside and outside. What struck us is how small the area was. We also visited Auschwitz which brought to life the reality of the holocaust to each one of us especially our son. We visited much of East Europe and now Sam has the travel bug too. Onto Russia in three years! My partner and our twelve year old son also visited the factory. We arrived with a group of other people in ‘06 only to find it closed for some renovations.

If you like me are interested the Jewish holocaust then this is surely a trip you must make. If you are staying in Krakow then just catch a taxi and ask the driver to wait, the fares are extremly cheap. My favourite part was walking up the flight of stairs that appear in the film. There is a guestbook that you can sign and a polite guard to observe. The whole trip for my father and I hotel and flights came to less than £100 each.
