- Majdanek State Museum - Majdanek Nazi German Concentration and Extermination Camp is located just outside of the city. In Nazi plans it was supposed to be bigger than infamous Auschwitz and become slave labour source for creating new empire on the east. Exceedingly strict conditions in prison are symbolized right at the camp’s entrance by impressive monument located in a place of the former front gate. A walk among remains of camp barracks with exhibitions inside, well preserved crematory building or gas chamber and gigantic Mausoleum with ashes of Majdanek victims
- all of this fills visitors with sorrow and reflection.

You won’t find a better guide - Martin is as good a tour guide as you can get. Honestly, if I was going back I’d call ahead and request him. I was already in Lublin instead of Warsaw, which is the normal starting point. He had no problem meeting me in Lublin and picking me up.
As far as the tour itself, there probably isn’t a question you’ll think of that he won’t be able to answer. People tell me I’m good with history, but I’m not close to Martin’s level. I also learned about the impact that WW2 and the Holocaust had (and continues to have) on the relationship between Germany and Poland. We finished with a very pleasant lunch at an excellent restaurant. Again, it’s worth calling the company and requesting Martin, even if you have to shift your plans or pay extra.

A Memorable and Insightful Day Tour of Majdanek and Lublin - We had a wonderful and somber time visiting Majdanek. Our tour guide, Marcin, was fantastic. He was prompt in picking us up at our meeting point, and from there he provided a day of great conversations and a wealth of knowledge on both the history of the camps and Poland in general.
I felt that we had a much better and more in-depth experience at Majdanek than if we had visited it by ourselves. We also had a very nice visit to Lublin, where Marcin did a great job highlighting some of the city's features. We got to enjoy some very tasty pierogis and ice-cold Perla beers.
I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!

A moving experience - We recently had the opportunity to go on a private tour of Majdanek and Lublin with Marcin Hilgier. We found Marcin to be extremely knowledgeable, professional, and personable. He was compassionate and understanding while touring Majdanek and presented the history of the camp and what happened there in a special and touching manner. Going to Lublin and learning about the city was an ideal way to end the tour. It was all a memorable experience!

An excellent tour, I recommend it to anyone interested - Majdanek Concentration Camp & Lublin Full Day Private Tour from Warsaw was a very special tour. Our guide Marcin, who accompanied us on the tour, is really very good in this regard. One of the most important criteria for me about the guide is that its English is understandable. Marcin was the perfect guide for me in this respect. I understood everything he said word for word. We also benefited greatly from his knowledge. We learned and shared a lot about the camps, Poland and daily matters. He is a very good communicator. I highly recommend both the tour and Marcin.

Respect and Understading - Our tour guide was excellent. Marcin's knowledge and dedication to the difficult history of Poland, Majdanek and neighboring Lublin was extensive. We gained a new understanding of Poland as a country and all that they have been through with the information Marcin provided. Visiting a Concentration Camp is difficult, but we felt paying respect for the millions of lives lost was something we wanted to do in our lifetime.
We are so impressed and how far and fast Poland has come. Such a friendly group of people with a well-developed infrastructure, we recommend understanding Poland, it's history, politics and development with the assistance of Marcin. Without a doubt, this was the highlight of our trip to the EU this September.

Really interesting, 100% recommendable - It was a really interesting experience. MARCIN was a very nice and helpful guide. He picked us up at the door of our hotel and he has a really extensive knowledge about history, WWII above all. Most people were in a tour group but I definitely recommend it to be private. 10/10!

Insightful and Sensitive - An incredibly worthwhile experience for my family. Marcin was a phenomenal guide. From the moment he greeted us, he was open to discussing not only his vast knowledge of the places we visited, but also, to discussing life in general growing up in Poland. It was a wonderful opportunity to really learn from a local. He dealt with the difficult subject matter of this particular tour to Majdanek and Lublin with tremendous insight and sensitivity. We could not have hoped for a better guide.

Incredible tour - Marcin was our guide for this tour. His driving was excellent and his company was even better. We talked about so many things on our way to Lublin. He answered all our questions about life in Poland and we talked about so many different things. The tour of the concentration camp was well done and he gave us time at the end to explore on our own. It was very informative and he was very respectful of the atrocities committed at this camp and others like it.
The tour of Lublin was lovely. It's a nice small town and we learned a lot. Marcin took us to a very quaint local restaurant for a delicious lunch. We sat and chatted like old friends.
We were dropped off at our hotel at the end of the day and we said goodbye to Marcin. It was an amazing experience and my husband and I would highly recommend this tour!
