Explore the Terezín concentration camp during a private car trip from Prague. With a local guide, you will learn about the atrocities of the Holocaust and the fate of those who were imprisoned here during the Second World War.
Start your tour in Prague with a hotel pickup and drive to Terezín in your own private air-conditioned car. Learn about the history of the Czech Republic from your guide and what it was like during the occupation in World War II and the tragic fate of the Jews in former Czechoslovakia and Eastern Europe. Upon arriving at Terezín, first visit the Large Fortress and the Terezín Museum. Afterwards, walk through the Magdeburg Barracks, the hidden synagogue, the Jewish cemetery, the Menorah monument, and the crematorium. Last but not least, visit the Small Fortress to spend time exploring the Gestapo prison, the single and mass cells, and a secret tunnel that most visitors do not get to see – this will take place with a local tour guide who has exclusive access to your tour. Throughout your tour, listen as your local guide provides historical context, personal stories, and information about the daily lives of the prisoners, including the cultural activities and propaganda efforts organized by the Nazis to deceive the international community about the camp’s true nature.
After your visit, drive back to Prague to visit the Jewish Museum and be dropped back off at your starting point.
