Experience the royal city of Krakow aboard a boat cruise and then venture into a former WWII concentration camp with an experienced guide.
Boat Ride along the Vistula River
Your catamaran boat ride along the Vistula River includes a modern sound system – from which you’ll hear an informative audio guide about the surrounding attractions – a heated deck, and comfortable leather sofas that make this experience worthwhile even during cold weather. Enjoy beautiful views from the open platform as you pass by Krakow’s finest buildings. The Wawel Castle is one of Krakow’s top attractions and the complex includes a Cathedral and a fire-breathing dragon statue. A grand amalgamation of different styles of architecture from the Gothic columns to Romanesque and Renaissance elements, this monument is also the first UNESCO-listed Heritage site in the world.
Krakow-Płaszów Concentration Camp
After reaching the suburbs of Krakow, meet your licensed guide who’ll take you on a walking tour of the former WWII Krakow-Płaszów concentration camp. Learning about the dark history and cruel past of this camp is sure to be heavy and enlightening at the same time. A quote by Holocaust survivor Dan Gillerman goes: “As the generation of Holocaust survivors and liberators dwindles, the torch of remembrance, or bearing witness, and of education must continue forward’.
See the silent monuments dedicated to the memory of the Holocaust victims and learn about how great and terrible the influence of Nazi rule was in this area. Your guide will illustrate how the deportation of Jews from the Krakow ghetto – in 1942 – proceeded and show you different parts of the camp. Intensive labor was expected here and carried out at the quarry and military factories. Gain an in-depth look into what camp life must have been like – the crimes that were carried out in a now peaceful suburb of Poland – and pay respectful tribute to the victims.
