5.00Start to finish, this was a wonderful tour experience. Our guide was great! Friendly and attentive! The tour itself was very well organized and the guides are knowledgeable and personable. A very long day, but worth every minute!

5.00It was a very moving museum and experience. I’m glad I made the day trip from Warsaw. I sincerely appreciated the communication and kindness from the driver who met me as communicated at the platform in Krakow. I also appreciated some of the time that was allotted before and after the museum visit to explore Krakow for a bit. The driver made it a smooth and easy process and for that, I’m grateful. Highly recommend!
Amazing experience, well organised with attention to details and the best explanation for the camp life from a lovely local lady

5.00I highly recommend this tour agent. We booked a day tour from Warsaw - Krakow - Auschwitz - Birkenau - Krakow - Warsaw. It was very well organised. Excellent communication from the agent who booked the train return tickets for us from Warsaw to Krakow. The highlight of the day was the English speaking lady who explained everything about life in the camp with lots of history information. She was happy to answer any questions as well. It was a long day but it was the best day we had.
Confronting and well worth the long day trip

5.00This was truely an amazing but confronting experience. The whole day was very long and tiring. Auschwitz was brilliant but by the time we got to Birkenau, we were feeling a bit tired from the walking and standing. That doesn’t mean that Birkenau was not interesting because it was. Our guide, Barbara, was well informed and spoke with emotion that impacted our feelings. The only negative was waiting for 3 hours for our train back to Warsaw. If there was an earlier train, we would have preferred that option.
The tour was excellent. ...

5.00It was very well organized. The train tickets, transfer from krakow to Auschwitz and back were all included. Michael, the tour operator was very nice and also the tour guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour understandable for everyone. I’d definitely recommend it without any second thoughts.

5.00It was a very moving tour. The guide did an excellent job conveying what life was like at the camp. The trip was very well organized, but it was a long day with a very early start in Warsaw. It was nice to have a few hours to explore Krakow at the end of the tour.
A Grand Tour

5.00A great tour. Krakow is a beautiful city. The museums were authentic and moving. Some images will stay with me for ever. It is so important to learn about past events no matter how unpleasant. The tour from Warsaw made it a very long day, but one I will always remember. The tour organisation was amazing and travelling by train and bus worked seamlessly. Thank you!
Poorly organised

1.00We were left waiting at a random train station in Warsaw at midnight for a transfer that never showed. Be aware that the late night train does not drop you off at the same starting location and was significantly more inconvenient. Tour operator is poorly organised. We were left waiting on multiple occasions for the guide to show at designated locations. Eat a big breakfast! There is no time allowed to eat lunch. Cannot store belongings on bus as advised by the operator as they use the same bus to ferry multiple tour groups. Would not recommend Poland Travel.
