I'm assuming you've read your repies in the Misc forum.

But I'm copying my answer here, for other people to see if they are searching for info:

Here's the train timetable for Krakow>Oswiecim:

(check times when you are there, as they may change).

You can get a bus from the train station to the camp, or walk (about 20 minutes).

Or (probably easier) you can take a bus direct from Krakow (bus station is next to the train station). These run fairly frequently: the TI office will tell you the timetable/fare.

The salt mines are also easy to get to: they are only about 7 miles from the city. Again, you have the option of bus or train (or tour, or even taxi).

you get bus from bus station to the camp,or a private mini bus i,m not sure where they go from, I,m there in july for 2 weeks from 23 july.buy you a piwo
