      Did the bare minimum.
      Very basic operator, not much communication before the trip (I had to instigate communication) only a bus driver on coach who did the bare minimum. Only 1 pick up/drop off point. On arrival they relied on attraction staff to give information. On departure the driver gave a site employee a chance to drive the coach (while it was full of customers) ,he obviously had no licence or insurance. He stalled it. Maybe keep away from this firm.

      Fab tour company!
      Can’t fault this company! Communication from booking to the day of the tour was excellent! Driver was also super helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend.

      Great tour operator but salt mine not brilliant
      The tour company we booked were on time and professional and nice, I would recommend them. The salt mine experience was not as great as I had been lead to believe. When we arrived we were left waiting for 30 mins to look around, but there’s not much there on the surface to look at. The guide who took us around the mine was very nice and knowledgeable, but honestly the salt mine was not as good as I expected or certainly in comparison to other mines I have visited. Firstly there was a huge amount of steps and a lot (huge amount) of walking. The mine is deep and the natural feel of the salt walls and caverns impressive, but there is a lot rather average displays with dodgy looking manakins and some gnomes! The main large church cavern is truly amazing, but there was far too many groups there, most of the time backing up and when our guide left us for 20 mins at the middle cafe and gift area, both were closed! Overall I think the tour could have been cut in half and when we came up out the lift, we were in the middle of the town, rather than at the salt mine where our coach was!

      Interesting
      Very interesting watching the accounts of employees in the factory and seeing the pots and pans that they would make there. The only thing I would recommended is to go with a guided tour in English (which I would do on a return) as a lot of the videos were in Polish

      Not worth the money
      I wouldn't recommend to be honest as it's way over priced to book with them when you could have went there yourself. We met at a pick up point wore just drove to Salt mines and pointed in the direction of the entrance and wore not given a clear indication of what time we had to meet back at the bus which led to some upset from others when the bus wouldn't wait for people. I would honestly say book a taxi and buy your tickets when u arrive at Salt mines cause it was a waste of €115 when it would have cost me half that to go myself

      Fantastic underground adventure
      A fantastic experience what an amazing underground adventure of tunnels and chambers. Our guide was clear and informative and explained each part of the tour as we walked through.

      Credit to the company
      This was the first time that we had used this tour company, and we were mighty impressed. Our driver was an utter professional from the moment that he picked us up to the moment that he dropped us back at our hotel. He went out of his way to make sure that we were handed over to the tour guide and that we had his phone number so we were able to contact him when we were ready to go back to our hotel. The tour itself was a one off experience and our tour guide (I am sorry but we did not catch her name) was brilliant. She was so knowledgeable about the camp and delivered all the information in a very respectful way. Both the tour guide and driver are a credit to the Discover Cracow company.

      Very professional
      Very well organised trip. We were picked up on time at our hotel and taken to the Salt Mine entrance, where our driver took us to our tour guide. The mines were spectacular, and I must give special praise to our tour guide Paulalina (I think that was her name), who was very knowledgeable and quite witty. Our driver was waiting for us after the tour was over at our arranged pick-up location and took us directly back to our hotel. Our driver was very professional, our tour guide very knowledgeable and the mines were spectacular - we could ask for nothing else - thank you to all concerned.

      Tour group separated me from my group to go on a later tour and left me behind. So upsetting - strange city on my own.
      Very amateur and badly organised half group had to wait for 90 minutes as they overbooked us. Salt mines I was put into a later group.

      From the booking of this trip to the actual pick up was very seamless, good contact through every step using WhatsApp.
      Loved the Salt mines, was very interesting. Be prepared to walk a lot of steps as it’s not a stroll you have to keep up with the group so wear good sturdy footwear.

      Great Tour company and a must do trip....
      If you're thinking of going to Auschwitz and Birkenau, I'd highly recommend it and I'd highly recommend Discover Cracow as your tour guide/booker. We were picked up outside our hotel door in a clean and smart mini bus. Entrance tickets (to both camps) are included in the price of the whole day/tour. Our Tour Guide was amazing. So passionate and hugely informative. I would definitely recommend doing the tour with a guide and not on your own as the information and knowledge they have, would all be missed if you were on your own. After touring Auschwitz, your driver and guide take you on the 10 minute drive to Birkenau. The bus then dropped us back at the Hotel door at the end of the day. For what you get, the price is pretty unbelievable. The Tour Guides are so thankful and pleased that you made the effort to be there and to understand the stories behind the horror.

    We just asked the driver who was sat outside the Cathedral about his tours. His Name was Rafal. We could not of had a better guide. We did the Jewish quater visited synagogos and Churches he gave us time to stop and visit he answered all our questions his knowledge of the history was amazing we learned so much. We went to schindlers factory not the tour of the museum though but Rafal gave us the little booklet explaining everything. I found this tour emotional, interesting and enjoyable more so because of our excellent guide.

    We booked a private 3 hours Sightseeing tour in Krakow by Eco-Vehicle for 125 Euro which was supposed to have a Guide and speaking English. Unfortunately the female young Guide didnt understand basic English, just Yes and No and didnt know nothing about Krakow. She could not answer one single basic question about Krakow and also didnt understand anything in English. She also didnt know that there was a ghetto wall left to watch.
    So everything we saw was because we informed ourselves before the trip about what there is to see...she wouldnt have brought us to the basic interesting sites nor could answer any questions.
    Very disappointing for 125 Euros!!!
