Day Trips From Krakow

Visiting Auschwitz-Birkenau is a deeply moving and sobering experience. It’s not a “beautiful” place in the conventional sense—nor should it be. It is a place that confronts us with the darkest chapters of human history, and reminds us of the unimaginable suffering endured by millions. Our tour was exceptionally well guided by Magdalena m. Her knowledge, sensitivity, and respectful tone were outstanding throughout the visit. She managed to convey historical facts with clarity while also capturing the emotional weight and human stories behind them. Magdalena struck the perfect balance between education and empathy—never overstepping the line into dramatization, but also never letting the gravity of the place fade. This is not a tour you “enjoy” in the traditional sense. It is a tour you carry with you. Thanks to Magdalena, we left not only informed, but emotionally connected to what we had witnessed. Her guidance made all the difference.

I really liked both Zakopane and Chocholov. The driver was very punctual and friendly. The trip lasts about 1h and 45 min.

We had the most amazing day with our driver and guide Piotr. Cheese tasting in the Shepards hut (we're big cheese lovers so we really enjoyed this, very tasty!) Zakopane centre and the Tatra mountains were breathtaking, then finishing the day in the thermal baths was heavenly. Highly recommend!

Peter the driver was great, really nice person. Gave the Kraków dragon story as an addition. He knew what he was talking about. The only issue was that new tickets had to be sent out and you needed data, which I did not have (no roaming) but the Peter did help us with a manual ticket. The cheese and vodka tasting was amazing!! The cheese was salty, chewy and delicious!!

Everything was very good. I appreciated the shuttle lift from Krackow to Auschwitz and back and the east online booking and we'll organized website. One thing that could have been better was the entry to start the tours pr self guided tours, the line for tickets seemed disorganized and felt like yours should be seperate from individual tickets. Everything else made it a good experience though.

Fantastic driver Rahul , he was friendly, helpful and told us lots. Made the trip to Auschwitz and Birkenau bearable and informative. We appreciated that and you have a great genuine guy in your team. Di & Naomi

Picked up punctually at meeting point by local company used by Headout. Minibus comfortable. Great communication and updates on email and WhatsApp. Thermal Baths were suberb. Evening visit is great as not as busy. Could be more servers in outdoor pool bar (long queues). Suggest 2 towels - keep 1 in locker - the other gets damp going around. We ate pizzas which were delicious. Very relaxing.
