A Perfect Balance

This trip is a day filler - the trip I went on took 11 hours out of the day. Visiting the salt mine as the second half of the trip makes a lot of sense in hindsight - it's a welcome uplift after a sobering visit to Auschwitz in the morning Our group was picked up at 9am, which meant we had time to eat breakfast before leaving and we did have a significant break for lunch at the restaurant outside the salt mine which had plenty of food options. I mention this because I've seen a lot of other reviews saying that people had starved themselves throughout the day with only a sandwich to eat. For our tour this couldn't be further from the truth.
As for the attractions, I don't mean to demean the experience but Auschwitz was what you'd expect. The salt mine was a huge surprise and absolutely fascinating so go, even if it's not part of this tour.
Transport was in a 6 seater private SUV which was very comfortable, probably helped the tour move along faster and allowed us to be picked up from the hotel. Martin was well organised, polite and kept us informed all the way. I would have no hesitation booking a tour with his company (Choose Cracow) again.

Auschwitz, Birkenau and the Salt Mines were excellent. It’s a must if you go to Krakow. The actual organisation Of the tours wasn’t the Best. I’m not sure if it was due to the COVID crisis, but we were picked up too early for the trip, so had to hang around for 40 minutes, for our allotted time. We then had to wait another 50 mins for our guide to arrive and then had to queue to go through the scanner. The guide we had for Auschwitz and Birkenau was Excellent! It was a shame we couldn’t see everything, but some areas were closed due to COVID. It was unfortunate that when we came out of Birkenau, the minibus air con had broken and the weather was 30 degrees. The salt mines were excellent too, a lot of walking for the whole trip. I think if we booked this again, we would do 2 separate tours.
Response from Host , Sep 2020
Thank you for your rieview. Long time of waiting in a queue was caused by two control points: covid control and standard security check control in the museum. Also number of the groups inside the controla building is limited to two groups. During busy days and rush hours so many groups waiting at the same time it may take some time. Unfortunately these are current rules in the museum which we have to respect among the rest.

Must see but Auschwitz guide could be better

Auschwitz is of course a must see For its historical significance, and the salt mines are very impressive and well worth combining into what ends up being a 10+ hour tour.
I did feel the Auschwitz guide could have been a little better (whilst appreciating he does a difficult job). The commentary was quite fact based and could have benefited from more historical context but also more personal stories Easy to complain I know but for such an important site a good guide makes a difference.

Two fantastic tours

Very moving tour of both Auschwitz and Birkenau. The salt mines are amazing and a great place to visit. Both guides were excellent, thanks to Martin at Viatours for taking us there. Second time I have used Viatours, will use again.

My 2 points of contract where veryfriendly. Unfortunately we went to Auschwitz in July during Covid so I felt a bit rushed w the tour. Pick ups and drop reliable. Provided lunch was sub par. The salt mine was interesting. Highly recommend anyone on this tour to be prepared for a lot of walking.

Too many other better options out there to choose this one.

The driver was excellent, the places very important to visit, but the tour guide for the actual tours was very, very bad. I am a native english speaker, but she spoke so quickly and slurred that it was very difficult to follow along (Auschwitz & Birkenau, not salt mines). She also *raced* through the tour and literally left behind a few of the slower folks in our group. When I asked her, very politely(!) if she could please slow down she responded negatively and refused. It made a powerful and important experience into a frustrating hassle. There are so many other options out there, I would try your luck with someone else...I'm sure there are other tour guides who take more time, care, and respect with the visitors.
Response from Host , Jul 2020
We are very sorry to hear that the guide in Auschwitz-Birkenau museum dissapointed you but we would like to inform that the guides are the workers of the museum and unfortunately we as long as other companies have no impact on which person will be the guide each trip. However the guide wasn't professional we are happy to hear that you were satisfied with our driver's service.

Best tour I've done.

Up there with the best guided tours I've done. From the moment I booked, I was contacted by our driver Christopher the day before to inform us of puck up time. He arrived at that exact time, Christopher was very helpful informative and polite throughout the whole day. It's a 10 hour tour to do both but well well worth it. Would highly recommend.

Everything!
