    One of the best tours we have ever done. WAs picked up at the hotel on time. The guide was exceptional, perfect English and incredibly humorous. Showed us some modern history which we were completely unfamiliar with . His knowledge of Polish and soviet history was second to none. The drive in the Lada was also entertaining. The tour around the bomb shelter was fascinating. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone

  • Great addition to tourism in Krakow

    Nowa Huta was a terrific addition to the traditional Krakow tourism. We saw an early Communist model neighborhood, a huge steel factory and the church built by the people of the neighborhood. It was a visual history of Poland under Communism and the peoples protests that brought it down. Our guide Mateus was terrific and the Soviet-era vehicles were fun

    This was an excellent tour - picked up in Lada and driven to Nowa Huta - this was a great experience in itself! We then had a tour of Nowa Huta and the steel works which was fascinating to see and hear the history behind it. Our guide Matt really added to the experience - friendly, knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the place, its history and also its future. The whole experience was so informative and so much fun.

  • It took 20 minutes to travel back to a different era and we discovered a world we knew nothing about.

    We took this trip as it promised to be something different and away from the crowds. It certainly was. The lime green Lada, entering the steelworks managerial offices and having the doors locked behind us as we toured the facility meant that we felt really privileged to be in this relic of recent history. The Nowa Huta area itself was interesting and different to what we were expecting in terms of architecture and greenery. Our guide Mateusz was a pleasure to be with, conversation flowed easily and you can tell that he loves his work.
