    Great experience, comfortable transport, friendly driver. However at the salt mine, we should have been informed that we would exit at a different site, and needed to make our way back to the entrance to the mine.

    Great day trip outside of Krakow!

    , Oct 2021
    Excellent day trip, our guide at Auschwitz- Birkenau was very knowledgeable, clearly knew his topic and the history. It is a difficult tour from a content standpoint, definitely not a place to bring young children. The headphones they provided for the Auschwitz part of the tour were very useful, guide only has to speak softly and everyone can hear. Guide at Wieliczka Salt Mine also very knowledgeable and made it interesting. The salt mine is truly amazing, a must see.Tour operator gave me the option to arrange for lunch which was very convenient. The 2 venues in 1 day makes for for a very long day, there's a lot of standing around and walking, at both Auschwitz- Birkenau and at the salt mine. You will be tired at the end of the day but it avoids 2 separate trips, so you can enjoy a full day enjoying and relaxing in Krakow.

    Auschwitz and Salt Mines

    , Oct 2020
    Don’t want to say too much about Auschwitz. If you are in Krakow you have to go. Tour picks you up at hotel and drops you back. The salt mines are wonderful and a must visit. They are not too crowded due to Covid so now is a must. And a got a little souvenir found on floor. Tour company very good. Would recommend.

    The trip was AWESOME. Our guide at Auschwitz was fantastic, and we could not have asked for greater guide. The only complaint I have, is the van that took us to all the places, the leg room was not good. I am 5'8" and my husband is 6'2" and our knees were pushed against the seat in front of us for at least an hour at one point.

    Very well organized tour. Easy and quick communication through email. Pick up was on time and the day ran very smoothly, starting with Auschwitz - Birkenau tour followed by a one hour lunch break before the Saltmines tour. Our guide was brilliant. Though it’s a long day I would highly recommend the tour.

    The guy in the mini bus was amazing! Organised and on time, pick up from the hotel, gave clear instructions on where we were going first/meeting points and how long the journey will take. The minibus was very luxury. The actual tour guides in both the salt mines and Auschwitz-Birkenau were very informative and knowledgeable and were happy to answer any questions. You were given earphones so could hear them both clearly no matter where in the group you were and you couldn't get lost. It was a long day and lots of walking to do the both in one but definitely worth it if only in Krakow for a few days. Definitely recommend.

    Good guides but too rushed
    Nick_J
    , Feb 2020
    The driver and guides were nice, well spoken and prompt. Both Auschwitz and the Salt mine were very. interesting. The salt mine was very impressive and the guide very good. Excellent visit. Auschwitz was expectedly moving, but, unfortunately, far too rushed. Partly because of the crowds visiting I'm sure but there wasn't enough time to read displays, look at exhibits properly or fully absorb the scale of what happened. We were frequently pushed out of the way by the next groups guide and all in all we were deprived the opportunity to sit, contemplate, reflect and pay our respects. This unfortunately left us feeling guilty that we had just rushed through and not really felt the deep emotion, horror and remorse that we expected.

    Every detail of the tour is great and with this places you're like part of the huge history and you can fill it all on your body. Everyone knows abou the Auschwitz but when you enter its gates.... you should see it in live, where people walked, worked, slept and many many more. Salt mine ah so beautifull and huge place, the amount of work putted there is unbiliviable. All the people who gets to or near krakow MUST definitly go there. Also the tour orginizers are very good and enjoieble people. Hey to Patrick which organized it and was our perfect driver.
