Bart took my wife and I...
Bart took my wife and I on the most amazing tour to Zakopane. He made it enjoyable and comfortable throughout the day and he genuinely cared to make sure the group had the best time. He is an amazing guide and would recommend him for any tour possible. It was a fabulous and memorable experience!

This is a must do!
We started off visiting a historical house in the highlands, learning about their life then and now. Then we enjoyed some vodka and local cheese. After that we went to the mountains of Zakopane where we got the cable car, had time to explore and eat lunch. We ended the day with the thermal baths which were crowded but enjoyable. There are many different pool options both indoor and outdoor, as well as a sauna and salt therapy room. It was a perfect day with our guide Kacper and I made some friends on the bus!

We were contacted the day...
We were contacted the day before the trip by our driver Peter. It was a small group picked up by minivan. It was a little squashed as we were the last pick up and had to sit in the front with the driver. As I'm small this wasn't a problem but may be difficult for larger people. Peter was informative and pleasant. As English speakers the I information was easy for us to understand but must have been difficult for the Italian speakers in the group. Once we reached the Salt Mines we were splint into our own language groups.
The actual tour was very good although it was a very long walk back to the lift to the surface which the tour guide didn't explain. Peter was waiting for us at the specified time for the return to Krakow. All in all a good experience.

Well run tour from start to finish
We were given all the information required in advance. Pick up was on time, driver courteous and friendly. Ordered the packed lunch which was very nice and reasonably priced. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke well. Return to hotel was again very comfortable. A very well organised trip with no issues at all.

If you prefer to listen rather than read.
Natalia was very informative and I enjoyed the tour. The tour particularly suited my sister as she can suffer with migraines from reading museum signage. Natalia imparted the information allowing us to take the time to just look around each room while she told the stories.

Auschwitz / Birkenau Saturday tour
Obviously these historical sites are of the utmost importance to visit. A sobering and haunting experience, as it always would be. The tour was delivered by a brilliant guide, who clearly knows the history completely and with huge relevant detail. It was seamless in terms of our friendly, helpful, safe and communicative driver navigating the journeys, clear instructions throughout. Joining the group tour with requisite tickets provided on arrival to the first site. Communication between guide and driver led to it being slick and efficient. We would highly recommend, thank you.

Incredible Tour, But Not for the Faint-Hearted (or Unfit)
This tour was one of the most powerful and memorable experiences of our trip to Poland. Visiting the concentration camps was incredibly emotional and confronting, but also deeply important. The guides handled the history with great respect and knowledge, allowing time to reflect while ensuring we truly understood the significance of what we were seeing. It’s not an easy experience, but it’s one I believe everyone should have at least once.
In contrast, the visit to the salt mines was fascinating and almost surreal. The sheer scale of the underground chambers, intricate carvings, and chapels carved entirely from salt were absolutely breathtaking. It was a perfect balance to the heaviness of the earlier part of the day.
The tour was very well organised, transport was comfortable, and everything ran smoothly. A long day, but incredibly worthwhile.
That said, be prepared—it involves a lot of walking at both sites. The descent into the salt mine is quite full-on, with a significant number of steps. If your fitness level isn’t great, I wouldn’t recommend doing both in the same tour, as it can be quite physically demanding.
Highly recommend for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of Poland’s history and culture.

Great day at the salt mines
A fabulous day at UNESCO Heritage site. The salt mines are one of a kind and should be viewed by everyone. Legendary Krakow was our tour company and our driver was Oskar. He was on time, drove well and got us into the event easily. He was also very polite and very nice to talk to. You need to pay him more money employees like that are an asset to your company. If he is your tour guide you will have a great day. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Autschwitz tour
I booked this only a few days in advance after my original tour was cancelled through another company who then wouldn’t give me another slot in the dates I was in Krakow. From the moment i booked there was someone on the other end of the phone to ensure my trip was all confirmed and even helping me with the best pick up spot. Travel was relaxing and I was picked up on time by Wojtek, who also was very helpful and patient, taken to autschwitz and back to krakow that afternoon with absolutely no hassle. The tour guide was also brilliant and very informative. Highly recommend!

Perfectly organised and extremely interesting
I booked the organized tour for Auschwitz and Birkenau along with my husband and we were extremely satisfied with it.
It was very well organised;
The pickup and dropoff at our address made it easy and stress free.
The driver was very knowledgeable of polish history and told us many things about his country we didn't know.
The museum guide was very knowledgeable, clear, understandable, empathetic and made the visit even more interesting.
I recommend anyone to book this experience through "hello Krakow".

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Well-connected by road and public transport, Krakow is a perfect launch point for discovering other towns and cities in Poland. While you could set out on your own, booking an excursion that takes you around the country will help relieve the stress of planning. Day trips from Krakow include World War II-related sites—such as a former Nazi-operated concentration camp—and a UNESCO World Heritage-listed salt mine. It’s also possible to discover outstanding mountain scenery with a visit to the resort town of Zakopane in the Polish countryside, followed by a soak in the healing waters of a thermal bath complex.
