Very impressive. Tour using headphones does not work flawlessly, especially when you are near another group. Guide sometimes went very fast, also because several groups are waiting for each other. In Birkenau there was little time to read a sign. Possibly there was less time due to the combination with the salt mine.

Excellent, smoothly run trip. Our coach collected on time with fantastic communication. Very informative and reassuring host on the coach. The tour guide at Auschwitz was extremely knowledgeable and set the perfect tone for a harrowing but important visit. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Thank you.

We met at 8.45am opposite of Hotel Mercure and it was a big tour (1 coach and 1 minivan; we were arranged for the minivan). Peter was our driver, he’s a very nice guy. First stop was Auschwitz I and a local lady as your guide and showing us the camp. Her explanation was very clear and easy to understand. The weather was around 3 degrees and luckily was sunny and with no wind. The camp was not just full of sadness and also we learnt the reflection from the history. After 1.5 hours visit, we told Peter that our lunch was not yet provided and he arranged effectively. We advise to have a few bites on the van because it just less than 10 mins drive to the Auschwitz II. We spent an hour in this part. When finished, 1.5 hours drive to the salt mine. It was traffic jam and we could catch the 5pm last entrance but the coach one couldn’t. Lots of steps for the mine but easy to walk. Everything of the mine was impressive. It’s a worthiness trip for travelling Poland.
