Arrive in Berlin
Berlin Brandenburg Airport to your hotel in Berlin-Mitte
- Welcome dinner
- Nuit : Berlin
- Environ 45 min de route
Fly into Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER), about 25 km south-east of the centre. A driver meets you in arrivals and takes you to the hotel, about 45 minutes depending on traffic.
Soir
Plan to land by about 4 pm so you are settled before the evening briefing; if you arrive early, leave your bags at the hotel and walk along the Spree to the Berliner Dom and Museum Island, a few minutes away. In the early evening your See Sight Tours guide meets the group in the hotel for a short briefing on the fourteen days ahead: how the trains work, what the Auschwitz-Birkenau day involves, and which mornings start early and why. Then we walk together to a welcome dinner of Berlin and Brandenburg dishes in the centre. Tomorrow starts at a gentle pace, so tonight is for sleeping off the flight.

Temps libre : Free until the evening briefing
Berlin: the Wall, Mitte and Nefertiti
Bernauer Strasse to the Brandenburg Gate, Gendarmenmarkt and Museum Island
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Berlin
Matin
We start at the Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Strasse while the morning is quiet. Here a stretch of the wall survives with its death strip and watchtower, and the street where houses once stood on the border tells the story of escapes through windows and tunnels. A short ride on the U-Bahn takes us to the Brandenburg Gate and past the Reichstag to the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, its grey concrete stelae rising and falling across a whole city block.
Après-midi
We walk on to the Gendarmenmarkt, framed by Schinkel's Konzerthaus and the French and German churches, for a sit-down lunch nearby. After lunch we cross to Museum Island, a UNESCO site, for a timed entry to the Neues Museum and the painted bust of Nefertiti.
Soir
The rest of the afternoon and the evening are yours: back to the hotel, or out to Kreuzberg or Prenzlauer Berg for dinner.

Berlin to Potsdam by our vehicle, back over the Glienicke Bridge
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Berlin
- Environ 1.5 h de route
Matin
Our own vehicle and driver take us out of Berlin after breakfast, about 40 minutes to Potsdam, where the Prussian kings built their summer palaces among lakes and parks now listed by UNESCO. We start at Sanssouci, the single-storey palace Frederick the Great built above a staircase of vineyard terraces, on a booked morning entry before the day groups arrive. Afterwards there is time to walk through the park to the Chinese House and the long façade of the New Palace, or to sit in the garden.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal in the Dutch Quarter, a few streets of red-brick gabled houses built for Dutch craftsmen in the 1730s. On the way back we cross the Glienicke Bridge, where East and West exchanged captured spies during the Cold War.

By train to Kraków, lunch in Wrocław
Berlin to Wrocław by train, then on to Kraków
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kraków
- En train
This is a long travel day, done by train rather than road, and we break it in the middle.
Matin
A reserved train leaves Berlin after breakfast and crosses the Oder into Poland, reaching Wrocław in about four hours.
Après-midi
Your guide arranges the bags at the station, and we walk ten minutes into the old town for a sit-down lunch on the Market Square, one of the largest in Poland, around the Gothic Town Hall. Wrocław was the German city of Breslau until 1945, when its people were expelled and Poles displaced from Lviv moved in, and the guide tells that story as we walk past Salt Square and look for a few of the city's small bronze dwarfs. In the mid-afternoon we take the train on to Kraków, about three hours through Silesia, and a van takes us from Kraków Główny to the hotel near the Old Town.
Soir
We arrive in the early evening; dinner is your choice, a few minutes' walk away.
Compris
- Reserved train from Berlin to Wrocław
- Sit-down lunch on Wrocław's Market Square

- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kraków
- Environ 1 h de route
A short drive of about half an hour south-east takes us to Wieliczka for an early English-language tour of the salt mine, worked from the 13th century until 1996 and among the first sites UNESCO listed, in 1978. The Tourist Route goes down a wooden staircase of about 380 steps and on through chambers and galleries to about 135 m below ground, where the air stays at about 14 to 16 C. Miners carved the Chapel of St Kinga from salt, chandeliers included.
Après-midi
A lift brings us back up, and we are in Kraków for a sit-down lunch near the Main Market Square. In the afternoon a local guide leads us through the Florian Gate to the square and the Cloth Hall, into St Mary's Basilica for Veit Stoss's carved altarpiece and the trumpet call from the tower, and down Grodzka Street to Wawel Hill and the cathedral where Polish kings were crowned and buried.
Soir
The evening is free.

Kraków to Oświęcim and back, then Kazimierz
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Kraków
- Environ 2.5 h de route
We leave Kraków at 8 am for the drive of about an hour and a quarter to Oświęcim. At the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum a certified Memorial educator guides the group, as the Museum requires for all groups. The visit takes about three and a half hours: first Auschwitz I, the former army barracks where the blocks now hold the evidence, then a shuttle of about 3 km to Birkenau, where most of the roughly 1.1 million people murdered here, the great majority of them Jews, were killed. Walking the railway ramp and the length of the camp gives a sense of its scale that no exhibition can.
Après-midi
We drive back to Kraków for a quiet, late sit-down lunch in Kazimierz, the old Jewish town, at about 2 pm. Afterwards your guide walks anyone who wishes along Szeroka Street to the Remuh Synagogue and its old cemetery, about an hour. The rest of the day is deliberately left free, and your guide stays nearby for anyone who wants to talk it over.
Compris
- Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau with a certified Memorial educator, about 3.5 hours
- Shuttle between Auschwitz I and Birkenau
- Sit-down lunch in Kazimierz
- Short Kazimierz walk with your guide: Szeroka Street and the Remuh Synagogue and cemetery
Option plus facile : Birkenau is large and open: the educator can shorten the walk there, and the van can wait at the gate.
Temps libre : Late afternoon and evening free
Activité : About 6 km on foot at the two camps, much of it outdoors on gravel.
By train to Prague
Kraków to Prague by train, via Ostrava
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Prague
- En train
Today is the second long rail day.
Matin
After breakfast a van takes us to Kraków Główny for a reserved train to Prague, about seven hours through Silesia, past Ostrava and across Moravia and Bohemia to Prague. It is longer than our four-hour limit for driving, but the road is no quicker, about six hours on motorways with border traffic, and on a train you can walk about, read and watch the countryside.
Après-midi
Your guide orders a lunch from a Kraków deli for the group to eat on board, with sandwiches, pierogi and cake, and the restaurant car sells coffee. The timetable sets the exact route, direct or with one change in Ostrava or Bohumín, which we confirm when we book your seats. We reach Prague in the late afternoon, and a van takes us to the hotel near the Old Town.
Soir
In the early evening your guide walks the group to the Old Town Square to see the astronomical clock strike the hour. Dinner is your choice.

- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Prague
We walk onto Charles Bridge at about 8 am, when the statues and the view of the castle are shared with joggers rather than crowds. From Malá Strana we climb Nerudova street to Prague Castle and are at the door when the buildings open at 9 am. With a licensed local guide we see St Vitus Cathedral and its stained glass, the Old Royal Palace and the Vladislav Hall, St George's Basilica and the small houses of Golden Lane.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal of Czech dishes in Malá Strana. In the afternoon we cross back to the Old Town and walk into Josefov, the Jewish Quarter, for the synagogues and the Old Jewish Cemetery on the Jewish Museum ticket.

Prague to Kutná Hora and back
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Prague
- Environ 2.5 h de route
Matin
Our own vehicle and driver take us east after breakfast, about an hour and a quarter to Kutná Hora, a silver-mining town that rivalled Prague in the Middle Ages and was listed by UNESCO in 1995. We start at the edge of town in Sedlec, at the ossuary under the Cemetery Church of All Saints, where the bones of tens of thousands of people were arranged into chandeliers and a coat of arms in the 1870s. Then we walk the old centre with your guide to the Cathedral of St Barbara, whose flying buttresses and tent-shaped roofs stand above the vineyards on the Vrchlice valley, and look in at the Italian Court, where the royal mint struck Prague groschen.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal of Czech dishes in the town.

Après-midi
For lunch, your guide can pre-order a picnic from a Prague deli to eat on board, or you can eat in the train's restaurant car (both paid locally). Late in the morning we take a reserved direct train to Vienna, about four hours through the farmland of Bohemia and Moravia, past Brno and over the Austrian border. Your guide handles the bags and the transfer to the hotel. In the late afternoon we walk the inner city together: along part of the Ringstrasse, with its opera house and museums built in the 1860s and after, then into the old centre to St Stephen's Cathedral and its patterned tile roof. We finish in a traditional coffee house for a Melange and a slice of cake, on us.

Après-midi
Lunch is your choice, at the café near the Gloriette or back in town. In the afternoon we walk through the Hofburg courtyards and Heldenplatz with a licensed local guide, then cross to the Kunsthistorisches Museum, whose room of paintings by Pieter Bruegel the Elder includes The Tower of Babel and Hunters in the Snow.

Faune et météo : May, June and September are the best balance of warm days and lighter crowds. July and August are hot in Vienna and Budapest and busy at Auschwitz-Birkenau, Wieliczka and Prague Castle, which is why we book early slots. April and October can be cool and wet, and Birkenau is exposed to the weather, so bring a waterproof. The salt mine stays at about 14 to 16 C all year.

Questions
What does the price include?
Thirteen nights in central hotels, 13 breakfasts, 8 lunches and 2 dinners, reserved seats on five trains, airport and station transfers, our own vehicle for Potsdam, Wieliczka, Auschwitz-Birkenau and Kutná Hora, your See Sight Tours guide throughout, and the entries in the day plan, from Sanssouci and Wawel to Prague Castle, Schönbrunn, the Budapest Parliament and the Széchenyi Baths.
How big is the group?
The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests. That is small enough for everyone to hear the Memorial educator at Birkenau, board a train together without a scramble and share one table at lunch. Most trips on this route run with up to 16 guests, and coach tours carry far more.
Who leads the trip?
A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group from the Berlin airport to the Budapest airport, handling the tickets, trains and bags. A certified Memorial educator guides the Auschwitz-Birkenau visit, a mine guide leads Wieliczka, and licensed local guides join in Kraków, at Prague Castle, the Hofburg and the Parliament. We name your guide when we confirm your dates.
How is the Auschwitz-Birkenau visit handled?
It has its own day. We leave Kraków at 8 am, spend about three and a half hours at Auschwitz I and Birkenau with a certified Memorial educator, then return for a quiet lunch and a free afternoon. Dress respectfully, bring only a small bag, and note that the Memorial does not recommend the visit for children under 14.
How fit do I need to be?
Moderately. City days mean about 8 to 12 km on foot, often on cobbles, with climbs to Wawel, Prague Castle and Castle Hill. Wieliczka goes down about 380 steps, with a lift back up, and Birkenau is a long walk outdoors. You lift your own case onto five trains, with help. Each demanding day has an easier version.
I am travelling solo. What does a room of my own cost?
A room of your own is from CAD 730 more, about 17 percent of the trip price, shown up front before you request to book, and it is the same standard and location as the twin rooms. If you would like to share, ask when you book and we will try to match you with another solo guest.
When is the best time to go?
May, June and September give warm days and fewer crowds. July and August are hot and busy, which is why we book early slots at Wieliczka, Prague Castle and Schönbrunn. The trip runs from April to October; April and October can be cool and wet, and Birkenau is exposed to the weather.
How does booking work?
Choose a start date and request to book. We check hotels, trains and Memorial educator slots, then confirm your place within 24 hours, and no payment is taken when you send the request. The small group starts from CAD 4,295 per person sharing and the private trip from CAD 7,730, with taxes included.
Can we travel privately or on our own dates?
Yes. The trip also runs as a private trip for your party only, on a date you choose, with your own guide and vehicle. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote the same hotels, trains and tickets without a guide.
Do I need a visa for Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria and Hungary?
Not if you hold a Canadian, US, UK or Australian passport: all five countries are in the Schengen area, which allows visa-free stays of up to 90 days in any 180. Your fingerprints and photo are recorded at your first entry, and ETIAS pre-travel authorisation is not yet in operation; we confirm at booking whether it applies.
Which museums are closed on Mondays, Saturdays or Sundays on this route?
Several, and the day plans are built around them. Sanssouci in Potsdam closes on Mondays, Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum usually closes on Mondays outside June to August, the Prague Jewish Museum closes on Saturdays and Jewish holidays, and Wawel Cathedral limits visits on Sunday mornings. We set departure dates so each of these falls on an open day.
How is this different from your Berlin to Budapest trip?
This trip adds Poland: three nights in Kraków with Wieliczka and Auschwitz-Birkenau, and a lunch stop in Wrocław, plus Kutná Hora from Prague. It has two nights in Vienna instead of three and leaves out Dresden, Český Krumlov and the Wachau. If you want those, choose the 12-day Berlin to Budapest trip.
