Definitely worth it! - Similar to another review, we booked this tour after our original tour (with a different operator) was cancelled due to insufficient number of guides being available. We booked this trip last minute and we are very glad we did! Mario (our driver) communicated extremely well and took the best care of us! Definitely recommend this trip to those wanting to visit Auschwitz. We took our own train to/from Warsaw and it was an easy process. I would recommend getting a late train back so that you have a couple of hours to enjoy Krakow before heading back to Warsaw (if you’re coming from Warsaw).

Perfect Day Tour of Auschwitz-Birkenau - We booked this after being let down by several of the larger companies, and we were very happy that we did. We had a choice of trip times and Maciej arrived at our hotel as planned. The trip to Auschvitz was very sobering and sad but a must visit for everyone who comes to Krakow. We were looked after very well, and Maciej explained the process of joining the tour. We were also provided a delicious packed lunch which (we could not finish!) and then driven on to Birkenau to rejoin the second half of the tour.
Although it was a long drive it was very interesting talking to Maciej about the area and the visit. He also was able to take us to a hidden rail site used during the selection process.
I would definitely recommend this company 100% as Maciej was an excellent guide, he even recommended a lovely restaurant we visited that evening!
Thank you for an excellent day 👍

Perfect Day with great Vegan lunch! - This is absolutely the best tour operator to choose. Auschwitz-Birkenau is a must see and this was a memorable day. However, Pawel was the best part about the day. He picked us up promptly from our lodging in a luxurious vehicle and expertly drove us to Auschwitz. He is a great conversationalist and narrated our drive. He took care to understand our vegan dietary preferences and brought us a delicious lunch. He expertly navigated the ticket line (we reserved last minute) and saved us much waiting. He transported us between sites and expertly got us everywhere we needed to be at exactly the right time. After experiencing long waits and frustration in other sites in Poland (without Pawel), we were able to truly appreciate Pawel’s careful choreography of our entire day. Auschwitz-Birkenau is an emotional site. Pawel’s care of us on this day really made the experience wonderful. Pawel also provided assistance with other activity and dining recommendations. He is an area expert and an excellent communicator who manages every detail of the trip. At all times, we felt extremely safe, pampered, and warmly welcomed during our time with Pawel. I highly recommend him for this tour or any other. As a visitor to Poland, it was really helpful to have a trusted area expert help us curate our Krakow area experience.

Seamless & well-organized day! - Visiting Auschwitz is a very sad experience, so we wanted to avoid big groups of people.

Amazing - After our first experience being cancelled due to insufficient tour guides and this is what we came to Poland to do . We got back on the hunt and found this experience.! May have payed a little more than the original but wow it did not disappoint. Our driver was brilliant and took us to 3 other points to visit. Lunch was a baguette which was amazing and to finish off he had got us a goody bag of snacks and drinks.
I would 100% this company and tour.
The tour guide there was very good and went in to so much detail about both sites.! 10000% would recommend

Great experience - Excellent tour. Pre travel communication was great with booking agent but not with tour company as had to find out if pick up details were correct as they never responded . Booked a private tour but it was a shared taxi which wasn’t the best start but our guide Casper was excellent very accommodating and informative. Fresh baguettes for lunch with fruit water and snacks were appreciated. Transport was immaculately clean and very comfortable. Casper got the tour tickets on arrival and we were well informed of meeting points. Only negative was that we booked a private taxi and it was shared making a stop for the other party there and back. Casper was excellent. Thank you
