- Due to the new guidelines of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum, each customer's first and last name are mandatory and must be provided accurately at the time of booking. If the first or last name is incorrect, the customer may have to pay for their ticket at Auschwitz themselves or may even be refused entry to the museum.

- By booking less than three months before the planned tour date, the customer acknowledges that online tickets for Auschwitz may no longer be available due to museum restrictions and high demand, as tickets often sell out well in advance. In such cases, tickets must be purchased on site by the driver at the ticket counter, which may involve waiting in line.
