This is an absolute must do for anyone who is thinking about a trip. Our tour guide Piotr was so knowledgeable and gave us plenty of time to view bout Auschwitz and Birkenau. He gave us plenty of information and ensured we got to experience both places. It’s a seriously emotional place, so prepare yourself accordingly. A serious must do.

This company came highly recommended on a Facebook group for things to do in Krakow and after using them I can see why. We booked through TripAdvisor and as soon as I booked I received a text confirming my booking. The day before we were due to travel to Auschwitz we got another text confirming pick up time from our hotel and then our driver Łukasz sent a WhatsApp’s to confirm pick up time and reminders to bring ID with us as we would need this to get into Auschwitz. Łukasz also offered us the choice purchase a packed lunch for our trip for 50pln which works out at around €12 and we did it was definitely worth it. Łukasz stayed with us until we entered Auschwitz and then met us at the gate with our packed lunch for our 10 minute break. He then drove us to Birkenau for part two of the tour. When the tour was over we drove back to Krakow it was raining so we were dropped back to our hotel but we could have been dropped somewhere else if we wished. I would highly recommend this tour company.

This company was excellent one to go with. Found them on social media. We are glad we did not do Auschwitz and Birkenau with the Salt mines all in one day. We found the Auschwitz and Birkenau tour emotionally draining and it is a great deal of walking ( it was very hot when we visited). It was a humbling experience and I recommend it for everyone. This company were punctual, friendly and very helpful. Highly recommended. Thanks to Conrad our driver. Lunch is also worth ordering.

The tour was interesting however we felt it was too rushed. The guide did not wait until all the party was assembled before starting to talk at each location. Much better to go on your own and take your time, to be able to read the information and absorb the events of that time.

Fantastic Michael gave us great tours first at Zacopane & thermal pools were victor the driver was very helpful Then Auschwitz & birkenau words can’t describe this your in small group private mini bus all first class We even used them for our taxi back to the airport Great service all round

Chloe_S

This is an experience we weren't sure about doing due to the nature of what it was. However, our tour guide was really thorough and talked about a lot of information we didn't know about already. Although the feeling of walking round Auschwitz and Birkenau was emotional and eerie and surreal it is a must do when visiting Krakow to really educate yourself on what happened and puts a lot into perspective.

Having been to the camps on 6 other occasions I feel I am able to write about them, every time I go the trips are getting shorter and so rushed, my very first ever trip I was actually walking around both camps for 6 hours in total and the guide showed us so much stuff that was very important to see to get the best idea what actually went on there. On this trip we spent a total of 2.5 hours between the 2 camps and the guide missed so much out of the trip. Really important stuff like the monuments etc at the far end of Birkenau, the ash pits, with just a very passing reference to the gallows where Hoess was hung, she just seemed more intent on constantly repeating a story about the women prisoners eating a cat.
