Top Krakow Day Trips

It was a full day and incredibly worth it. It was a chance to visit a lovely Mountain Village, but also learned about the culture and dive a little bit deeper into Poland. The variety of activities could not be topped. The vodka and cheese experience was especially fun.

Managed to pick up a last minute tour for six of us just before we left for Krakow. We should have booked earlier but didn’t realise how much demand there would be. Viator were really good from start to finish. Instructions were easy to understand and minor changes were easy to accommodate.. Transport was very good (Mercedes minivan) and driver spoke excellent English. Would happily use again.

A very relaxed day with a great guide (Michael) who made the day more enjoyable with his humour...and Vodka shots. Really enjoyed going up the mountain in Zakopane. There was enough time to take in the views, have a beer and then explore the town a bit. The Thermal Bath was lovely as well, with enough time to not feel rushed and actually just sit back and relax. I felt the pacing of this tour was spot-on. Too often you feel rushed, and this really gave enough time for the two main stops.

Such a great tour. Would definitely recommend. Our driver/tour guide ‘walker’ was very knowledgeable and accommodating to the whole group. A definite must do if visiting Poland. Would recommend taking dinner/drinks along with you as you don’t get time to stop and dress warm if going around October as it’s quite chilly.

The trip was amazing and very well organised and on time. Mirek our guide was fantastic and very knowledgeable and friendly with great recommendations (he even paid for a souvenir for us when we forgot our money on the bus - we paid him back, obviously). Lucas our driver was also great on the road and got us to our destinations safely. The hot springs were nice and relaxing and was well worth the money and early start :)

The booking with Viator has been pain free. A professional service and very helpful throughout. I would definitely recommend them if you intend to book. The only thing I would suggest is be mindful that the timing that you book can change right up until the last few days. The pick up from the hotel (by Mark) was excellent, a good journey to Auschwitz in a comfortable vehicle. In Auschwitz, a very moving and emotional site. This was brought to life by our guide (sorry don’t know his name) who was so knowledgeable on the subject. Throughout the visit he gave us an excellent understanding of this tragic history of our forefathers. It is something that I believe everyone should visit in their lives just so we never allow ourselves to make the same mistakes again. My only criticism is the groups walking around the site are so tightly packed that on occasion the guides end up talking over each other. Our tour was originally scheduled for 0930hrs and was finally scheduled for 1530hrs, so when we got there it was a massive rush to get around both camps before it got dark. 1830hrs. We stopped twice for ten minutes in that time which was difficult for elder people. On the whole though, an excellent visit,very reasonable, professional service and helpfull. Thanks Viator. Rob P.

Standing in Auschwitz was sobering in a way nothing I'd read or watched had prepared me for. Our guide was exceptional: deeply knowledgeable, respectful, and careful with every word. The history was told with the weight it deserves, and it's something I'll carry with me for the rest of my life. If you're in Kraków, go. All other tours are just that, tours.🕯️

I had a wonderful experience on this day tour to Auschwitz and the Wieliczka Salt Mine. Everything was very well organized, and the hotel pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient. Our tour guide was amazing—knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. They did an excellent job explaining the history and providing interesting details throughout the tour. It was a long day, but everything ran smoothly and never felt rushed or confused about where to go next. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organized tour with an excellent guide!
