Amazing Private Tour with Piotr

MariaLuisa_L, Aug 2025
We were a group of 8 for this private tour and from the very start, we established a good rapport with Piotr, our driver/guide and the tour company owner. Piotr arrived on time to pick us up at our hotel and he was very pleasant, accommodating and informative on the places that we visited. He allowed ample time for us to enjoy St John Paul II’s museum and to pray inside the churches that we visited, take pictures and buy souvenirs. I had requested beforehand for us to be at the St. Faustina Sanctuary for the 3:00 pm Divine Mercy Chaplet prayers. Piotr delivered and made sure that we arrived there several minutes early. I booked 6 Viator tours during our last trip (1 in Krakow, 1 in Paris/Versailles and 4 in Rome) and our tour with Piotr was the first one and proved to be the best. I highly recommend this private tour for anyone wanting to visit the St. John Paul II religious sites along with the St. Faustina Sanctuary. Also price-wise, Piotr’s was the most reasonable among the other similar tours that one of my friends and I looked into prior to our trip.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a true pleasure guiding you and your group, and we’re so happy that you enjoyed the visit and the special moments at the sanctuaries. Your kind words mean a lot, and we hope to welcome you back for another memorable tour soon!

Peter our guide was do accommodating and picked us up where we needed. He was super kind and did not rush us during the day. Was a great day.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad you had a relaxed and enjoyable day on the tour. It was a pleasure having you with us!

Piotr is an amazing tour guide! Would 100% do it again.

Sophia_C, Sep 2023
The tour was amazing because Piotr made everything so convenient and comfortable. He told us what the typical itinerary is for the private tour but said we can change it however we like and spend time in more places than others if that is of interest. We ended up spending most of our time at the sanctuary (Kalwaria Zebrzydowska), where we got to have a classic Polish lunch and walk around. We got to create our own timeline. Also, he was very helpful with explaining Krakow and John Paul II as we were travelling to our destinations, giving interesting details we had not known before as well as his own experience as someone native to Krakow in relation to St. John Paul II. Overall, a truly amazing experience and we are so grateful to have done it and met Piotr!

Response from Host, Sep 2023

I'm so glad I done this trip by my self! It was pleasure to meet both of you. Great possibility to exchange opinions and show you our region. Hope to see you again in the future. Thank you again for great day!. Piotr
