Cracow and Wieliczka tour one day trip I do suggest you to see also Cracow's old town and Casimir - it is definitely worth seeing before visiting Auschwitz - Birkenau Museum. Knowing history of the Royal city and history of Jews in Krakow allows you to understand more from the lesson of Holocaust. When being in the southern Poland, you should also visit the oldest Salt Mine in Europe inscribed in UNESCO's 1st World List of Cultural and Natural Heritage, that is situated in WIELICZKA.
