Krakow Tours & Excursions

" 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."

Very good trip, everything was explained and communication was great. Meeting point was easy to find and journeys were comfortable.

Unser Guide, eine Frau, den Namen habe ich leider nicht, war wirklich sehr gut. Mit sehr viel Wissen und guten zeitlichen Erzählungen hat sie uns durch die beiden Lager (Ausschwitz I und Ausschwitzll) geführt. Ich kann die Tour nur empfehlen, jeder sollte sich die Stätte und das dort verübte Grauen angesehen haben.

Interesting activity. Very nice guide at Auschwitz itself! Also nice bus, driver and guide.

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!

So you have to have a guide when you go to Auschwitz Birkenau. You can go alone, but I don’t know how you would do it because all I saw our group led by guides. The guys have told as in either history or language. Our guide was a woman from Poland, and her grandfather was in conscripted to work at Auschwitz. She was very knowledgeable, and let us through the camps with confidence, and she was easy to understand.

Punctuality of the driver to pick us up from the hotel; private and very comfortable transportation; the driver stays with us on site while waiting for the guide, everything is very well organized. The French guide is of very high professional quality, her diction is remarkable, very precise in her comments.

The auschwitz tour was great, the guide was great and really informative! Nothing bad to say about this part of the trip. However, the salt mines on the other hand was a different story. The guide rambled on about things that were irrelevant. Didn’t explain what each part of the mine was. Said something and practically ran away from the group. As we chased after her she had already started speaking again so had no idea what was going on. Also spoke extremely fast so also didn’t help. Constantly on your feet for 3 hours (after being at auschwitz) in a boiling hot room with no where to put coats or bags. There were about 2 pretty rooms at the mines. And the only lift to get back up 850 steps was an old mine lift. That has definitely no health or safety checks on it. And has defo been on there for about 50 years. So scared us to death. On a whole the salt mines was a waste of time and money and would never ever do them again or recommend them! Auschwitz is a great tour! Book that itself.

It was an extremely long and hard day yet something everyone should experience to educate themselves. The salt mines were fantastic and beautiful. We had the lunchbox which was provided which was definitely worth it, the sandwiches were really nice. Both guides at auschwitz and the salt mines were excellent; extremely knowledgeable and friendly. A really good experience and would definitely recommend.

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.

Comfortable bus, very well driven. Recommend.

an experience that must be lived 100%, our guide took us to a place unfortunately with a sad history, managing to tell us with great enthusiasm about facets that don't always come to light, a truly experience not to be missed

Very knowledgeable guide. Made the experience a lot more interesting

Brilliant very well organised tour - 2 of the the main Must-See attractions around Krakow visited in a day. We had limited time in Krakow, so it worked perfectly for us.

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.

Tour guide was incredible, was so helpful with getting amazing information

Trip was excellent. Highly recommended! We got picked up at 7am at the kiss&ride parking lane. The bus came on time and the tour guide welcomed us onto the bus where we traveled for around and hour to auschwitz. The tour guide was amazing. Really knowledgable and made the day very straightforward. We then travelled by bus to the salt mine which took around a hour but was a 10/10 experience. A long day full of walking so be prepared and you must take lunch with you as there aren’t many places to get anything. Highly recommend the full tour and guide

Everything was great. well organized and comfortable trip. The drivers were very polite.

Paul exceeded our expectations of this trip although the experience was of sorrow with what happened at Auschwitz Paul was very informative and we certainly learnt alot with the information he gave us about Auschwitz and Kraków. Paul was very friendly and made us feel at ease as soon as he collected us we were made to feel like VIPs, he was very friendly and respectful and the vehicle was very smart, clean and safe.

A trip that everyone should experience, very sobering with very knowledgeable guides. We would go back to do the longer tour next time.
