A long day but a very worthwhile experience! - A very memorable experience. If you are in Warsaw for a period of time and have a day to commit, it is worth the trip. If trains are on schedule, it is a solid 15hr day. Unfortunately, my return train was delayed but that is not the fault of the tour company, in fact they were in touch with me during the entire delay. From pickup to drop off, the day was well coordinated. I did opt for the premium train (which was an express) which was an extra $25 each way. Once there, our tour guide was excellent- super knowledgeable and made you really feel the experience through her delivery of information. Plan out your meals and/or bring snacks. There isn’t a lot of time to stop and eat. Once again- it was a memorable lifetime experience worth doing.

Everything was perfect - This tour was amazing. Starting with our pickup in the morning, our driver was very punctual and on time. She gave us clear instructions which were easy to follow. The guide we met in Auschwitz was very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the horrific details. I would definitely recommend this tour, it’s a very long day but well worth it.

Full day tour of Krakow and Auschwitz. - Krakow is a beautiful city with so much history and is a must see. Auschwitz was historically a must-see tour, even though it is a heavy subject. Magda was a consummate tour guide and so very knowledgeable.

Good value - The whole journey went like clockwork from the hotel pickup in the early morning, the return train journey, the transport to Auschwitz and Birkenau and most important of all, the guide who gave us an excellent expose' of the two concentration camps.

Auschwitz and Krakow from Warsaw in one Day - Excellent Tour, worth the trip - Excellent, well organized and informative tour. It would have been a logistical nightmare for us to plan a trip to Auschwitz and Krakow in one day from Warsaw in one day because we were pressed for time. Royal Tours handled everything perfectly from hotel pick up, all tickets, walked us onto the train, picked us up in the Krakow train station, drove us to Auschwitz and back to Krakow so we could explore the city on our own, walked back to train which was close to the old town center and then they picked us up in Warsaw again and drove us to our hotel. Heartbreaking tour of Auschwitz with a very knowledgeable guide. It's a long day and a lot of walking . People with mobility issues and children would have a hard time because the ground is very uneven and a lot of stairs. Krakow is a beautiful medieval city

Long day but very enjoyable - Really enjoyable trip. Long day though travelling to and from Warsaw. Trip went really smoothly and the staff were excellent in picking us up and making sure we got our trains and buses. On a second go I'd look to find time to stay in Krakow, but this time...well timings didn't allow. Recommend this trip if that is your situation!!

Good private experience - I really enjoyed the trip, both drivers were very polite and on time. The tour to auschwitz was also nice, but the fact that we had books and not an English guide was not the best experience, however I've agreed with it, so no problem. In regards to the trains, as we are booking a premium experience, with private drivers, etc, I suggest in the future you give the option of 1st class trains as it really makes the difference after an exhaustive day, also return time should be agreed as after waking up at 3am you don't want to stay until 21 to go back to Warsaw. In this occasion we have cancelled both tickets from the agency and bought 2 1st class ones that costed over 120€, in an earlier train.

Total disappointment. Unbearable tour - Good afternoon The excursion was generally bad. We had entry by 12.30am, considering that our train was leaving at 5.35am from Warsaw, more than enough time to have entry earlier. After the van driver arrived 20 min late, at about 10.20 am and stopped to eat at a burger king at 12 am, we arrived at 12.45 h at the museum. There was a huge queue of people there, we entered after 1.30pm and at 2.30pm we left the museum and were taken by bus to Birkenau. He didn't make it to an hour's visit. The second museum closed at 3.30 pm, imagine the visit we made, 15 or 20 min. Then he took us to the center of Krakow, we arrived at more than 6 pm because of the intense traffic and the train returned to Warsaw at 8.37 pm. We had to get off the bus and walk because otherwise we didn't get to see anything and we weren't the first to do it... The scheduled and paid visit was 31⁄2 hours. Ultimately, it didn't even reach 11⁄2 hours. The stay in Krakow was not more than 2 hours. The driver was a mess, on the way back to Krakow he put the heating on full blast and the people dizzy on the bus, telling him to turn it down and not listen. The tour planning very bad. The headphones sounded terrible, the guide spoke low and it was very difficult to understand. We asked to be reimbursed for part of the money from the excursion, they did not fulfill anything promised. It was a long journey for nothing, we went in a hurry to see something. A mess and I have pictures of everything to prove it. I await your response and refund of money for all breach of contract. Attentively. Francisco
