Krakow Tours & Excursions

This trip was a major highlight of our holiday. The whole day was very well organised with the visit to Auschwitz first then the Salt Mine in the afternoon. We opted for the packed lunch option which was great to snack on during the journey between the camp and mine as there is a lot of walking involved and an early start to the day. Both tour guides for Auschwitz and the Salt Mine were exception and shared so much knowledge. Sandra the tour guide taking us to to each place was very friendly and organised.

It was interesting. I could recomend to visit this place at least once in life for historical reasons.

We enjoyed the tour as much as you can enjoy a tour to this horrific place. The guide was informative and the tours all around us moved seamlessly on. There wasn’t much time for reading information on your own as the tour needed to keep moving. We liked the personal head set so we could all head the guide.

Headline title says 1 Day Trip Auschwitz Birkenau and Salt Mines with Hotel Transfer. It’s only when you look further down in article it says salt mines only. 8 people on minibus and another couple thought they were booking as per title of advertisement and not only salt mines. Salt mines was beautiful.

Very interesting. The guide, Chris, was very sensitive to the topic of the Holocaust. Salt mine was awesome

A very sad place that everyone should visit. Unfortunately, the museum is not very well organized. The group consisted of about 20 people and I believe that this is the maximum number for comfortable sightseeing. Nevertheless our driver who was also the tour leader spoke good english and was helpful.

Amazing day! My feet ached from walking but my cheeks ached from laughing after the salt mines what an experience. Auswhitz, despite being so sad. Is a must see. I felt so grounded afterwards. The tour guide, Peter, was sweet. Provided plenty of bathroom breaks for any of my fellow weak bladder people who are worried about that. Only one point I will mention about these breaks is that peter often gave us about 10 minutes which wasn’t enough time (if your a lady) to even get through the bathroom queue but no stress at no time did they make us feel rushed about this!

There is nothing I can fault about this trip, both our coach guide and tour guide were outstanding, the tour was organised smoothly too.

" Monica was present when we exited the plane with a sign with our name on it. She sent me a message via WhatsApp to warn me. She speaks English, we were able to chat a little with her. Nickel transfer. We also passed through Tourvan on the way back, I recommend."

Firstly, our driver was absolutely fabulous. So friendly, helpful and professional. He made the busy day run very smoothly. The camps tour guide was very passionate and knowledgeable, as was the salt mines guide. The camps themselves were incredible to experience. Kinda lost for words really. All I can say is, go and see it for yourself.

Great tour and seamless transport. Tour lead was super organised in getting the group to and from places.

Very well organised! Kris the guide we had on the mini van was super! His English is very well pronouncdd and clear. He explained and showed us a video on our way. Also showed us the house of Rudolph Hess and took us to an extra part where deportees used to be stopped and a few people visit. Good idea to visit Auschwits2 first and then Auschwits1 to avoid the crowds. Highly recommend this. Thanks!

The pick from our hotel was on time,the driver was excellent and pointed out landmarks during the drive. The guide at Auschwitz was brilliant and knew the dates and explained everything. The whole day was excellent and well worth it. The lunch box was more than adequate.

The trip was brilliant. We travelled in extremely poor conditions, very heavy snow fall and very icy roads. The driver was fabulous. Very confident, safe and conscious of everything around us. My tour guide was Marta, she was clearly very knowledgeable and genuinely interested in the history she was telling us about. The tour itself was very fast moving and we were able to see quite a lot in a very short time. Wear comfy shoes because there's a LOT of walking and if going in winter, make sure you have your thermals because you're going to need them!

Our guide was amazing and his knowledge was incredible delivered in a very professional manner.

We really enjoyed the auschwitzz trip. The tour guide was good but could only speak broken English so sometimes we struggled to understand him. We were put into a different group and split away from our family on our trip. Clear communication is key on these kind of trips and that is where it lacked unfortunately.

the trip was great. very organised. I felt we could have took more time in Auschwitz however I know you also have a time limit to adhere to. over great day

The tour guide was excellent, his English was extremely good and was very knowledgeable. Especially appreciated his word choice for subject. Transport was slightly late but was not the fault of the driver and was communicated to the group. We didn't see the barrack exhibitions but didn't feel this affected the quality of the tour and we didn't feel we missed anything. Appreciate the subject wasn't sugar-coated for tourists.

Sweet

The tours were amazing. The experience in Auschwitz and Birkenau were both sad and shocking. The guide did a great job with this sobering subject. The tour through the salt mine was fun and light-hearted, which allowed some emotional recovery. The transportation was okay, with pleasant drivers. However, the 8AM start time was changed to 5:45AM, so we could make a 7:30 tour. The tour didn't start until 8:30, so they had to cancel the hour break for lunch. It was a long day with little to no food.
