Very good trip and museum visit. Monika our guide was very good, but her commentary was sometimes difficult to hear perhaps because she was holding the head microphone in her hand rather than wearing it on her head? Only a small problem, but may help future visitors?

Very organised company. Transport was on time and our driver was lovely, he checked our tickets and we got our lunch bags that we booked! Our guide Anna was amazing. Very informative and very compassionate about the stories and facts she was telling us through out the tour. Tour it’s self is very well organised, a very moving tour. I have no words 💔 Thank you to all. Will definitely use again!

Great trip and my male guide was great, I forgot his name sorry. But he was very professional and very knowledgeable about the camp and was able to answer all the questions the group had. I would definitely recommend anyone to do this whilst visiting krakow.
