Informative, but early
christopherwO345RF, October 2026
Important experience and well done at the museum. Only thing is that it was expensive (we ordered a week in advance), and the pickup time was bad (06:55 in the morning). Other than that it was very interesting

Operator Cancelled the tour with just days to go
faizelw2020, October 2026
Booked this tour weeks ago and had all my confirmations. Today just 6 days before we are due to fly to Krakow for the sole purpose of visiting the museum on this tour I get a message cancelling .
The whole tip is now ruined.
My only option so as not to have wasted flight and hotels is to pay around £800 for a last minute tour with another tour company.
Response from the operator · Kokosowaty Dear Si/Madam,
This review belongs to the another company. More than 50 companies in Krakow cooperate with Viator/TripAdvisor. Thank you
Best Regards,
Phil

Great trip excellently organised
Steve_W, October 2026
We didn't realise how quickly these trips get booked up so was lucky we were able to arrange this 9-days before we arrived. The trip organiser emailed us the day before confirming a 7am collection from outside our apartment and shortly after I received a WhatsApp from our driver, Marek, confirming the same.
Marek was waiting for us outside at 7am as promised. The travel from Krakow took around 1hr 20m and we shared a people carrier with another couple. We arrived at Auschwitz around 8:20am and after a short wait while tickets/security scans and headsets were arranged, our tour guide started just before 9am.
The guide was very good and the headsets made it very easy to listen to her information especially as the site was very busy with other groups following close behind in and out of the various buildings. We finished the first part of the tour just after 12pm and had a short break before departing for Birkenau at 12:30pm which is a short drive 3km away. The same guide met us there. This part of the tour is very open walking through the camp (thankfully no rain for us!). There were no headphones on this part but as it was so open we could hear the guide perfectly fine.
Tour was completed just after 1pm and we walked back to meet our driver, Marek, who had us back to our apartment for around 2:30pm so we had more time that we expected as originally thought we may only return later in the afternoon.
There's a couple of vending machines at the first part of the tour and there was also an offer of lunch being supplied by our driver. We didn't opt for lunch and just took a few snacks with us. There wasn't really any time to eat these other than the break in the middle but this wasn't a problem for us.
Don't need to say much about the actual trip, everyone who visits Krakow should visit to understand the background to all of these events.
Would recommend this organiser and Marek our driver.
