More details

This was an excellent and well organised trip. Picked up directly from our hotel, we also had the add on of lunch (sandwiches, drink, snack and fruit) which was very handy. The tour it's self was at a good pace and the guide was very good, knowledgeable and easy to follow. Slight issue - when the group had to walk single file, the people at the rear would lose signal and be unable to hear the guide. I would highly recommend.

Very well organized, no extra money to pay on site Excellent driver, very friendly and on time. We were 7 people in the minivan, trip from Krakow was less than 1h30 min. The driver picked us up at our hotel. Since we were a bit in advance, we visited one train rail outside the camp. Then, he left us in front of the first camp to start the visit with a guide. After the first visit, small break to eat and we took again the van to go to the second camp, where we found again the same guide from t...

insanely well organised. I was called + got a message the day before for the exact pick up location and time (we had to walk like 4 minutes). The bus then left on time, our guide picked us up in front of the bus, we visited Auschwitz first, then a short bus drive to Birkenau. 20 minutes after we left back to Auschwitz and around 7.5 hours later we were back home.

The day before the trip, we received a call and they confirmed the pickup time. Our driver Peter arrived on time and took us straight there. Was great to skipped the security queue, there were many school parties that day. Finally the tour was conducted by a fluent English speaker. Happy to recommend.

Everything was on schedule, guide was clear with his instructions and the air conditioning in the bus was greatly appreciated. Tour in the Auschwitz and Birkenau was a bit hasty (especially at the Birkenau camp), but this was most probably due to the hot weather. Our guide on the site was again very informative but there was no interaction between the group and the guide but one could experience the scale and conditions of both of the Auschwitz camps. My recommendation would be that if you ha...

Well worth it. A surreal experience. Don’t plan on doing anything after, make this the one thing you do in the day. Just so much to process.

Very informative tour. I also appreciated the driver picking me up from my Airbnb and dropping me back later. The tour guide and driver were exceptional. I highly recommend this tour!

The tour was well organised and ran on time. The transport was very nice and comfortable. The guide was very knowledgeable and smoothly ran us through everything. There was a good pace to the information which was important given the context, it would have been easy to get upset by what was being witnessed, but the steady flow of commentary prevented us from reflecting too much and getting distracted in misery.

Trip was organized very nicely. The guide was very friendly and informative, you could have seen she knew a lot about the topic. The only annoying issue is that they moved our time from 11 to 6:45, which was very annoying, as we have arrived to the city at night..
