Very interesting tour. Our tour guide was excellent (I forget his name but he had a beard) with very good English. The tour was just the right length and full of interesting content. I imagine it must be hard talking about such depressing times on a daily basis so I appreciate the guides for the work they do. One thing though would be to have a sign outside saying Tour Meeting Point, as its very confusing at the entrance as there are so many people, and the photo sent prior is different. We went in 15 mins before and we told twice to keep waiting outside when our group had already gone in and we unfortunately missed the start of the tour. Went to the Salt Mines the next day and the signage and queuing process was seamless. Its not difficult.

The guided tour of Oskar Schindler's factory was very good. The presentation of Jewish history in Krakow was very well done by the exhibition guide. It was all very informative, but the subject matter was also depressing at times. The exhibition is very well designed, so that you feel as if you have been transported back to those terrible times. The exhibition guide also made a very good reference to the movie "Schindler's List". We visited the exhibition with our grandson (14) and can recommend it to others. We didn't like the size of the group, as we were sometimes 1-2 rooms behind the room currently explaining the exhibition. The group size should be reduced a little.

The tour was on time and we were met in the meeting place and escorted in to the museum. The tour is 90 minutes and at times you could see that the guide was rushing through and with a few checks of his phone to see the time he was definitely keeping pace. Yes I would have loved to have more time reading each display but I wouldn't have learnt as much as I did if I visited independently. The guide was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Overall I enjoyed this experience and would book it again.

Our English tour guide was amazing. Spoke clear and taught us very important lessons that we hadn't learned before. The exhibition pieces were set out in perfect sequence. The Nazi flags sharpened the experience for sure. Brought deep emotions to the surface of my every thought that day. Powerful to say the least. A definite must see in Krakow.

Our guide was really knowledgeable and told a lot about Polish history. We even got extra time when the tour took 2 hours instead of 1.5 hours. The size of the group was suitable, not too big. We recommend this.
