Krakow4you 5/5, Auschwitz tour itself disappointing - The couple who are Krakow 4 you, Alicia and Dariusz, are the best! Personable, attentive, caring, flexible, thoughtful and .......
e.g. I thought I had included the option for the Schindler's factory tour, but hadn't. The two of them made it work anyway, taking us to the factory that afternoon with Alicia waiting in line for us and then giving us a wonderful tour. Before that, after the first part of the tour (Auschwitz), Dariusz offered to drive us around the perimeter of Birkenau and give us a guided tour with wonderful explanation and context rather than the official walking tour, which involved a lot of walking for very little content as the wooden barracks were destroyed by the locals at the time for their use (after the liberation).
We found the Auschwitz tour was not allotted enough time. The guide was rushed and when requested to slow down, would not due to time constraints. This is not entirely his fault. For a tour of such significance and the distance many come to be there, it should be a more measured meaningful thoughtful experience, not a rushed one.

Very moving experience - Seeing Auschwitz-Birkenau in person is a very moving experience.
Alicja (and Krakow4you) provided us with an opportunity to visit these sites at a time and in a sequence to avoid most of the crowds. Alicja provided a private tour of Birkenau. This allowed us to ask many questions and focus on aspects of the camps that were of most interest to us. She also provided hints as to how best take advantage of the official tour of Auschwitz. She is a wonderful guide!

very interesting - The guide told with passion and through the headphones we could always hear him well. There was room for questions. The working language is English and he had a good command of that language. We were on the very first tour (at 7 am) and nice for the crowd. The group size was fine.

Compliments to Dariusz - Our guide, Dariusz, made the trip as informative and as pleasant as it could be. We would recommend him to anyone who wants a full tour of Krakow and Auschwitz-Birkenau.

Memorable one day visit - Our guide had an excellent knowledge of polish history. We could understand complicated circumstances in which Jewish people were placed at that time. So we really appreciated his service.

Highly Recommended - I cannot recommend the Jewish Quarter and Auschwitz-Birkenau tour with Alicja/Darius enough. Both are incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about their city and its history. I learned so much from them on this tour - they were able to fit in a ton of information for the full day tour without making it overwhelming.
Our tour started with a walk around the Jewish Quarter, which provided much of the historical context we needed before we went to the camp. Though that part of the city is much different from what it was in the past, Alicja painted such a vivid picture of the way things were by having us pay special attention to the preserved landmarks or reconstructions that truly brought the city to life. Alicja also pointed out good non-touristy spots & restaurants along our walk, so she gave us lots to do even after our tour ended.
After our tour of the city we began our drive to Oswiecim. Along the way we stopped at a restaurant, giving us time to discuss the prior walk through Krakow and to touch base on the upcoming visit to Auschwitz. Great food, too!
When we arrived at Auschwitz, Darius took us for a drive around the perimeter of the two camps, showing us just how big they are and giving us some context before we toured the interior. Coming in having a better understanding of the magnitude of the operation was incredibly invaluable when we were walking around Birkenau. I am so thankful for the additional context that Alicja and Darius provided to us because it made the tour through the camps that much more powerful and meaningful.
I can't thank them enough! I only wish that we had enough time in Krakow to visit the salt mines. I will definitely seek out their services when I find myself back in the city.
