Tourguide was knowledgeable but the factoey has nothing about Schindler and his saving work or more about him. It was just pictures of the war. We watched the movie and were inspired by his work now to dins put this "factory" is nothing about that. If I would be a living damily member I would be hurt and insulted that thousands of people come To visit Schindler and they dont get what they payed for. This is history and besides one room called "office" norhing about this man who saved thousands. Maybe to reco sider the tour and name of this place. Very dissaapointed like all from my geoup and those we spoke to.

The guide was very good, obviously know a lot about the topic and had a lot of interesting things to say. He seemed to be personally interested in the issue and could always answer questions. The group was also of a good size. It could appear a bit expensive but was well worth the money.

Our guide, Michael was excellent, he was extremely informative and linked in a huge range of exhibits into a coherent and entertaining narrative. He was clearly interested in the subject and made the whole experience very worthwhile. Thank you Michael!

Joanna was very good with her history as she patiently answered all our questions at the end. She gave us good insights into the living conditions of the Jews during WWII. Small and often missable plaques became very interesting during the tour.

A must-see during a visit to Krakow. Anna was our guide and shared very interesting information that added extra value to the visit. I definitely recommend coming, whether with a guide or on your own.

A MAGNIFICENT guide—in all caps. He explained everything to us intelligently, with a touch of irony, and even shared a few personal stories. He made the museum visit very, very interesting and ensured that we all learned a lot.

A guided tour is a must, since you wouldn't be able to understand everything on display there on your own. The explanation, combined with the story the guide tells, is very entertaining and comprehensive. I highly recommend the guided tour.

The combination of the Wieliczka Salt Mine and the Schindler Factory offers an extremely comprehensive and dynamic tour that makes excellent use of your travel time. The underground walk through the depths of the mine is visually stunning, with the amazing sculptures and the imposing chapel—carved entirely from blocks of salt—being particularly noteworthy. Furthermore, the subsequent historical tour of the iconic factory provides a moving, profound, and essential perspective for understanding the context of the occupation of Kraków during World War II. The private transportation between the two sites was comfortable, punctual, and efficient, while the tour guide was highly knowledgeable and friendly. Without a doubt, this is a highly recommended experience for travelers interested in history and culture.

Martylda gave us a private tour of the museum and explained a great deal of background information and facts to us in a very interesting and engaging way. She was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent German, and radiated warmth. Given that all written explanations (with the exception of German posters) are in Polish and English, we were especially glad we chose this tour. We might not have grasped many of the connections, even given the museum’s impressive design. The museum itself is definitely worth a visit. Dear Matylda, we give you 5 stars.

We had a wonderful experience visiting Schindler Factory. The exhibition was very interesting, moving, and incredibly well presented. Our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, friendly, and able to explain the history in an engaging and understandable way. You could really feel the importance of this place and its story. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kraków. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience!
