Worth going with this company - Cyp our guide on the coach was brilliant , he gave a really informative talk before we went Auschwiz , giving us a brief history of Krakow and the German occupation. On arrival to Auschwiz myself and my husband got left behind the tour and he made sure we caught up with the group. The guide in both destinations was excellent , giving us her extensive knowledge of what happened. I would highly recommend this company for any tours in Krakow and if you get Cyp as a tour guide it’s a bonus. One point beware both destinations involve a great deal of walking.

Be humbled! - An absolute must if you’re in Krakow. It’ a very humbling journey through history that will create a wave of emotions. Driver was very approachable and kind. John the rep was on point and Karolina was full of knowledge and insight as she walked us around both camps. Only negatives; waiting time of arrival at first camp to the start of tour was 1 hour! Also the toilets at Birkenhau coffee shop and pay to enter but free at the camp (John could’ve informed). Not enough time to eat lunch, visit bookstore or to stop and read the plaques whilst on tour. Overall a great experience. Thank you.

Auschwitz/Birkenau visit - It was a busy pick up point, various other buses waiting to pick up. Host on bus was good. Entrance was quick and straight forward. Tour guide was excellent very informative and was very respective to the events of Auschwitz. Birkenau is a short bus trip away but unfortunately a lot of reconstruction is going on so parts are not available to the public at the moment. Auschwitz/Birkenau a trip worth doing to help understand just what happened there during the German occupation of Poland
