Really enjoyed this trip. Being able to choose between pick up (and drop off) points was good. Transport was good in a mini bus with friendly helpful staff - well done Filip ! Guide in Aushwitz /Birkenau - excellent explanations and dealing with questions all done at a pace allowing you to absorb and understand the presentations. Salt mine once again excellent guide, I believe called Maria, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Extra points for helping me with some mobility issues due to arthritic knees --- Gold Star

If you want to do both in one day this is great trip. Bus comfortable and new, guides knowledgeable and dedicated. If you would like to visit all in the camps you would probably need more time. Still this trip gives a very true and detailed experience and the history behind.

I am a solo traveler and only have 1 day and half to explore Krakow. So I would say I am glad I joined the trip. It definitely worth getting up at 5 am. The tour started at 6.30 am. and ended around 5.45 pm. The guide was knowledgeable and well prepared. Absolutely recommended for solo travelers, group of friends, and couples :-)
