Good value. Inconvenient pick up/drop off location - Great, clear audio tour lasting around 2 hours. You were able to go at your own pace and equipment was good quality and easy to use. However, the pick up point is not near the attraction and we made the mistake of just heading to the castle, up a steep hill, only to be told we were in the wrong place. Eventually found it. The tour starts right from the ticket office which wasn’t explained very well so again had to walk back to the start. Once up and running, all was good, except the walk back to the ticket office to return the equipment. A drop box on site would have been more convenient. Good value for money though.

Careful. It’s not a tour of the castle. - Is was a lovely walk around the castle however the title is very deceiving. I thought we were booking a castle tour.

Interesting - The castle was beautiful and the audio guide was excellent - I just didn’t like that you had to pay extra to go in all the different parts of the castle

Beware of what you are buying - read the description - Please ensure you read the detailed itinerary as this “TOUR” is not a tour, what you are doing is renting the audio guide kit NOT entry to the buildings. You can walk freely round them and listen to the guide but you cannot enter any building without buying a ticket on site. I would just buy the entry tickets and enter buildings and not rent the kit. The offering should be entitled Audio Guide for Wawel Castle and Hill. It should exclude the word TOUR.

Waste of money - Read the information good, befor ordering this trip. The only thing u r paying for is a pre recorded audio-guide for 2 hours use, not tickets. I do not recommend this, as it's an unnecessary expense. I recommend going to Wawel Castle and walking around. It's free to enter and walk around the compounds of Wawel Castle. And take as many pictures as u want. But by using the audio-guide, u have a to hours restriction, because their equipment as to be returned. It's not enough time to walk around the compound, take pictures, and buy tickets to actually see the inside the bildings of the castle.

Better off going directly don’t waste your money and time - You’re better off going directly you don’t need their audio there’s audios there along with the tickets,it’s a waste of money and time as the audio provided by the seller is just of the outside buildings
