  I had an absolutely a fabulous experience. Going to visit Pope John Paul II's childhood home has been on my bucket list for a long time. However this tour was more than I expected. Chris is an excellent tour guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a wonderful personality. I would 1000% recommend this tour.

  We visited Krakow for one reason only, and that was to fulfill a lifelong dream to do a pilgrimage to the Divine Mercy. Chris was the perfect guide to take us on our pilgrimage because he was full of information about St. Pope John Paul II, and Sr. Faustina and the Divine Mercy Shrine. He picked us up at our hotel, and brought us to Kalwaria Church, to Wadowice where the Pope was born, and to the Shrine (old and new). He was always very nice, very patient, and always gave us enough time to look at things, take pictures, buy souvenirs, and, of course, pray. We even had enough time to enjoy some papal creme cake. He was even able to time it so perfectly that we were able to be at the old Shrine in time for the 3:00 prayer. We even got to hear mass and receive Communion at the new Shrine. He had a nice clean car, and he always drove safely. All in all, it was a perfect trip thanks to Chris, and to God of course. We would highly recommend Chris to anybody wanting to do a pilgrimage to the Divine Mercy.

  We went to see all things JPII, Divine Mercy & Saint Faustina & it was a marvelous experience! Chris was an excellent tour guide. I’ve appreciated that he had a clean new car for the long distance between the sites we are visiting. Chris was punctual & trustworthy. He catered to our specific needs and was experienced and knowledgeable, respectful and personable. 100% recommend this tour.

  Very lovely private Wadowice, Kalwaria and Divine Mercy tour with Chris. 100 % recommend taking this tour with Chris. He was a perfect gentleman, friendly, and knew his stuff about Pope John Paul ll. He was prompt and on time for pick up at our hotel and went out of his way to help us throughout the tour. All the places he drove us to were outstanding and followed the planned itinerary. Nothing better than having a one on one tour with a guide who is super courteous, friendly, excellent driver and very knowledgeable about information for your tour. Chris is the owner of this tour company, so if you book this tour, he will be your guide.

  The church of Pope John Paul II practically 4 meters from his birthplace. Inside there is a crypt dedicated to him as well as many of his photos and paintings. Holy water in small bottles is available as a gift.

  We’d highly recommend this tour if you are hoping to experience a pilgrimage in Krakow. Our guide, Kristopher really made us feel welcome as he shared with us the history of the places we were visiting. My mother’s highlight was the cake which St. John Paul enjoyed in his youth after an exam or other special occasion. It was a wonderful day where we could relax and take in important places on our first visit to Krakow.

  

  

• Great trip to Wadowice.

  Our guide Chris was excellent. He alerted us that one of the museums was temporarily closed but substituted another stop for us. He know the history of every site we visited.

  Yesterday, we experienced one of the most memorable tours of our lives. Chris picked us up, right on time, from our hotel for a drive towards Lagiewniki where we visited the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy with its adjoining old church and monastery of Sr Faustina. Chris was a fountain of information, tellings us stories, dates and even more than what we could absorb in one go. We then drove to Wadowice where after visiting the cathedral where Pope John Paul II was baptized, we visited his home and museum which I must say was so well organised. This was followed by a short drive to the Sanctuary of Kalwaria Zebrzydowska for another very informative and interesting tour of the church and surroundings. Chris was ever so calm, patient and relaxed and gave us all the time we needed when we took longer to examine details or for shopping. There are no words to thank him for such a wonderful experience.

  Being guided by Chris is like talking to an old friend you haven't met in years. Chris is frank, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He was always walking the extra mile. For example, at the Wawel Castle, when we wanted to just go down and meet Chris at the road entrance so as not to inconvenience him, he insisted on going up and meet with us because he wanted to tour us around the castle. He did not have to do this as it was not part of our itinerary - he toured us nevertheless. Thank you Chris for making our trip really wonderful.
