All Krakow Tours & Excursions in 2026

Very informative and well organised tour, our guide Ewa was knowledgeable and made sure everyone was on track. The headphones are a big plus so that everyone can hear the guide. Make sure you check your email and WhatsApp the day before the tour, as they might change the timing of meeting.

My friend and I booked this experience for ourselves and her 2 children (10 & 12). The company were fabulous and messaged me the day before with pick up location as our hotel sat on a private road but the location was only a street over and was easy to locate. There was a lot of traffic on the morning of the trip but our guide, Julia, was great and messaged me to keep me informed of the delay. It was only 10minutes which is understandable during rush hour. Patryk was our driver and again, was brilliant and the bus was incredibly comfortable. As we set off, Julia explained we would do the salt mines first as it would be less busy for both elements of the trip. The handover to the tour guides at both the Mines and Auschwitz was smooth and both of those guides, Peter and Lucy respectively, were brilliant. We had read a lot of reviews and comments that said Auschwitz wasn’t appropriate for children under 14, but we knew our children were emotionally intelligent, already knew some of what happened there and felt comfortable enough that they’d be respectful….and oh my goodness, it was the best decision we made. If children want to learn, stopping them because we think we know what’s best shouldn’t be a concern. Lucy, the tour guide, even thanked my friend for bringing her children as they were asking really important questions that adults may have not. For example, at Birkenau camp, there was a large pool of water, which we adults overlooked. The 12 year old asked what it was for and the guide explained it was located centrally as most of the barracks were made of wood and was there incase of a fire as the barracks were closely packed together. If you know your children, know that they have the emotional intelligence and respect to understand and want to learn; this trip is great!! It is a lot of walking though so definitely wear comfortable shoes. I did almost 28,000 steps for the whole day so the kids would have done more. We were returned to our drop off point with plenty of time to have dinner and unwind.

The very early start to the day was a bit of a shock! (Pick up time 05.45) up by 04.00hrs with a 15-20 minute walk to the pickup point, luckily it was light at that time of day and it wasn’t raining, putting that aside, the trip is well worth it and it’s full on hit the ground running , approx 2 hours at Auschwitz and an hour at Birkenau with a 10-15 min break in between. The guide we had (David Kennedy) was excellent and VERY informative. Little tip (if you don’t already know) if you have booked B&B , the hotels are well versed with guests leaving early on these day trips , you can ask them if they can make you up a breakfast box (ours did) you’ll be glad of it as the morning goes on! All in all I would highly recommend this trip, it’s moving , informative and somewhere everyone should go at least once. The trip price was very good for a seven hour trip and I would personally do it again.
