Day Trips From Krakow

I booked a trip to Auschwitz and Birkenau after official tickets with an English guide were sold out months in advance. The tour included hotel pickup and transport, which worked flawlessly – everything was punctual and smooth. At the museum, there was a shared queue for all time slots, which caused delays, but this seems to be the museum’s system rather than the tour provider’s responsibility. The workaround with a “translator” was actually very effective – our English-speaking guide (Brigitte) was excellent. She was kind, empathetic, and clearly very engaged in the history, which made the experience more meaningful. The visit itself was well organized, and despite large crowds, the guides managed the flow efficiently and avoided unnecessary waiting where possible. It is a fast-paced visit, so don’t expect much time at each spot, but that’s understandable given the number of visitors. One small tip: bring your own food and water, as there is very limited time between stops. Overall, a very well-organized and worthwhile experience.

Der Fahrer, der uns hingebracht hat, war super nett und alles hat reibungslos geklappt. Auch der Tour-Guide in Auschwitz war sehr freundlich, hat alles verständlich erklärt und die Führung wirklich hervorragend gemacht. Klare Empfehlung!

Lovely full day out with our guide Mirek and driver Stan. The admission was roughly £70pp - a very good price considering that this includes the seamless transfer from Krakow and back, multiple stops including a Chochołów village, cheese & vodka tasting, Zakopane (with funicular ride to Gubałówka mountain) and also the thermal baths (so much fun and great experience!). Breathtaking part of the world to see and visit, especially at this time of year in the snow. Mirek was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and funny. Would certainly recommend to people to book this trip for a full day outing! Dziękuję!

The whole trip was so organised and well planed out. Kuba the guide was amazing, explained so much of every place we stopped out and very informative. He always also very funny and made us all laugh, a credit to the company. Would recommend this trip with Kuba to anyone who wants to visit all the good places. Thanks again from The Dayas family have a great New Year!
