Krakow Schindler's Factory Guided Tour with Admission Ticket

Janette_M, Jun 2026

Factory museum tour.

This experience was not what we expected. Although it was a factory, it is actually a museum which follows the timeline of Nazi occupation in Poland with very well documented photographs, maps, propaganda leaflets etc. Would recommend having a tour guide as you really need one to gain an insight of what it was like at the time and to sift through the endless information that is on offer. The timeline is on a daily basis, highlighting just how quickly the city was occupied.

Schindlers Factory. He was not a very good hearted person. He charged people to get them out safely.

Very sad history, many Jews and Poles were killed. Schindler wasn’t that great of guy. Although he saved some people, he charged money to try and save his factory.

History of Kraków’s war

Very moving tribute to the residents of krakow during the war era. It detailed the history of their war. There is very little to compare the film that most associate the factory with and is NOT about the enamel factory itself. This is a must for anyone who has an interest of the plight of Jewish people at that time and a general history of the war

Superbly organised trip.

Our driver Yaro was a superb driver and host. Our tour was Auschwitz and then Schindlers Museum. Very well organised with clear collection and drop off instructions. But the experience was really elevated to another level by Yaro, who sent us places of interest to see near our hotel after the Schindlers museum tour. Thanks

Very informative

The guide was good, he gave us lots of facts that you just wouldn’t get if you were on a self guided tour reading the information points. The pace is quick, that’s the trade off for having a guide with extra information. Shame there wasn’t an option to go back around under your own pace, but appreciate that this is based on visitor capacity. Tip: stay outside as the guide will meet you there.
