Amazing, I visited with a friend and we found out so much more from your guide on what happened and the history. Definitely if in Krackow need to go and see - without a doubt one of the most interesting places I've been to

Trip was well organized. Experiences were well coordinated. Highly recommended! The concentration camp experience will affect you. The Salt mine is a great follow up to uplift your spirit. It is a lot of walking, so be prepared... about 17000 steps throughout the day including nearly 800 steps down in the mine.

This trip you must do when visiting Krakow. Me and my son tolk Auschwitz and the saltmine the same day. Everything was perfect. From the start the nice guide who picked us up from the hotel, the guide at Auschwitz and the guide at saltmine. The lunch was good. This trip is really a must. Extra plus to the guide who transported us. He was great.

Brilliant tour, it was really interesting and the tour guides were really informative. A delicious lunch was included that was great value. We saw the Salt mines last that was an amazing experience, and great to end on as lightened the mood after the first part of the day. Highly recommend!

Overall Good but with Space for Improvement

The mini bus picked us up at about 7:00AM and dropped us off around 6:00PM. You get separate guides in Auschwitz and the Salt Mine who work there and the driver does not provide any information or facts on the way, but you watch a documentary about the liberation of Auschwitz on the way there. A lot depends on what guide you get. We thought that the guide at Auschwitz provided minimal information, but he would answer questions if you asked him anything specific. The guide in the salt mine spoke a lot more and provided more facts. Lunch was quite good and had a lot of food. There was a 40 min break for lunch before heading to the mine. It was near Birkenau and there was a place to buy food as well, however, it did not seem like the options were better than what you get with the tour. One of the downsides is that we were dropped off on the way back around 700m away from our Airbnb, across on the other side of old town. We were not familiar with the city and the driver pointed us in the right direction and said (incorrectly) that it was 200m away. We had to look up the way back on Google maps. Something to bear in mind: the tour involves a lot of walking (around 20000 steps between the camps and the mine), so be mindful of this. The salt mine is rather cold so if you travel in the summer, consider bringing a jacket (you can leave it on the bus until you need it).

Me and my boyfriend decided to go with Mr shuttle. The day went 100% smoothly we were driven exactly from one point to another. The lunch was excellent. I would recommend this to everyone and the staff on the bus were very friendly. Tomasz was excellent and made sure everyone was okay and everything was on time. 10/10

Excellent service. So well organised, driver was brilliant, spoke excellent English and gave great guidance. Lunch provided was more than expected. Full day tour, you’ll be tired afterwards but it’s so worth it. Highly recommend.
