    From the tour guide to the driver who picked us up and dropped us back the day ran so smoothly. We didn’t have to queue and the museum and our tour guide was amazing. She knew everything. Would highly recommend this tour and company

    Tour and guide were excellent, emotional trip but an important place to visit to fully appreciate the history. Only negative - we booked 9am trip, this was changed to 12.55 the day before. By the time we got to Birkenau it was dark so we saw very little, and didn't get back to Krakow until 8pm.

    From pickup to drop off the whole trip was an easy process. The communication was spot on for the first pick up and the rest of the day, even though it was quite busy we always knew where we should be. The guide was very informative and very respectful of all the areas we visited.
