Great tour for our Group
Our Catholic pilgrimage had an itinerary change and were not going to be going to Auschwitz after all, so we booked this for our free afternoon/evening. It was very convenient to be picked up at the hotel & the price was reasonable. Our guide at the camps was very informative and we really felt like we learned new information from him.

Get this trip booked!
If you get chance to do this trip please do it. It's a full day trip but worth it. We went up into the mountains, tasted cheese and drank vodka. Went in a cable car to see magnificent views! And so much more!
This trip was made so much better by our lovely guide, Milos, he was so informative and certainly knew his stuff! Such a lovely man and a credit to your company! Would not hesitate to book this again next time we come here

Everything about this was...
Everything about this was terrific. Pre-trip communication was excellent, timely and complete details each step of the way. Driver was exactly on time, and kept us informed. Tour guide was great. Also, got the lunchbox which was terrific and a great value.

Brilliant day.
Firstly we had a great guide and driver, Magda.
Full day but all the stops were interesting and good fun.
We had great weather but on the way home the weather changed and the mountains were covered in cloud, the views are stunning so consider the weather forecast before you book. I am sure the review wouldn't be as good.

Cracking Krakow trip to Auschwitz.
A great trip, picked up at hotel on time, a very informative and interesting guided tour. Nice small group,we never felt rushed. Would recommend this tour of Auschwitz,just the right amount of information and time to digest what had been said and take on board. Our guide Chris was brilliant.

Very efficient tour,...
Very efficient tour, visiting 2 places in the same day.
There were times we could buy some snacks. it was also not rushed. Unforgettable experience. Good guides and driver. We do walk a lot but we have time to rest, like between the mine and Auschwitz for example.

Amazing Day @ 3 Sites
Long day with amazing experiences at all three locations. As a history buff both camps were a bit overwhelming. The salt mine was a really cool experience and I was happy to see it first hand. Thomas was a great driver and took good care of us, going above and beyod.. The guide was really good but should have interacted with us earlier in the day to give us better insight into what we should expect for the day.

Great tour!
This was a very good experience, allowing you the opportunity to see a different part of Poland. We had an excellent tour guide, Daniel, who is very knowledgeable, passionate, and attentive to detail, making sure that we have the best experience possible. Mountains were gorgeous, and it was nice to end the day with the relaxing experience at the thermal pools. Highly recommend this tour.

Highly recommend Tomasz!
Tomasz picked us up from our airport hotel as arranged and was a wealth of knowledge. He made sure we all arrived on time and came with us through the gates to make sure we were in the right spot. Explained which bus and where to go to have the best experience possible. Highly recommend Tomasz as a tour guide for this experience. Time was tight between tours so he offered a lunch option, which i highly recommend. It was a great deal and had great options!

It's a LOOONG day, even longer if your group is not punctual
We loved our experience with Bart going to the Salt Mine first (2-2.5 hr tour) and then driving to Auschwitz (which took 1 hr 20 min), and then the combined Auschwitz-Birkenau Tour (4-4.5 hrs). All the English guides were informative, passionate about their respective topic, and open to answering additional questions. They were great about keeping a good pace, but keep in mind it might be intense for those who are not used to walking for long periods of time. I clocked about 20,000 steps between the 2 tours.
Sadly, due to waiting on people in the group, our break between the 2 tours was cut short and we only had 40 minutes to eat a quick lunch. The restaurant is the one on site at the Auschwitz 1 Memorial which has tourist prices ($25 USD for lunch, no beverage).
The tours are a bit longer, but it helps you appreciate the importance of each site and the history. I can't imagine having walked through any of those without a guide as it wouldn't have done it justice. I'd recommend for anyone who enjoys an educational experience while getting in some good steps.

Stairs were down. Site was beautiful.
The mine was educational, artistic, and beautiful. All but approximately 10 steps were going down. The floors were not slick. However, it definitely is a lot of walking. The guide was very good. It was great getting picked up in front of our hotel. The driver was very nice.

Wieliczka Salt Mine Wonder!
A must-see experience.
Put it on your list.
Why?
An incredible journey through 800 years of Salt Mining begins with its history and Legend of how a Princess from Hungary first discovered Salt in Krakow, through my guide Joanna today.
Each Chamber has its own unique story - The Chapels are beautiful and breathtaking.

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.
