“Well organised and with doing. Be prepared for lots of walking. We were surprised how many places you were allowed to take pictures although not sure why you would want to look at them again. So glad we went out of respect and to remember those people who were murdered. The trip was well organised and the driver Pavell was great. Don’t forget your ID for entry and wear comfortable trainers/boots. We had lots of comms about starting time etc and couldn’t fault anything. You are allowed to drink in the camp so don’t forget water. Even in the cold, it helps.”
