          Non-guided tour
          The tour was disappointing, two days before they told us that there were any guided tour, soy they changed our tour into a non-guided one. You have no time to visit those camps. Otherwise, Daniel was very very kind, he was lovely. We was late at a moment, but he didn’t get mad.

          Auschwitz tour
          Our tour Guida was very charming and very well communicative , Daniel did a great job explaining to us how the tour was going to be and guided us before and after the activity. Very pleased with the experience would totally do it again. Also the lady that guides us inside Auschwitz and birkenau gave us an excellent explaination of everything that happened in there with very interesting facts about it

          A bit rushed!
          Felt it was rushed a bit, we hadn't come off the bus in the Salt mines and Daniel was explaining to others outside the bus and they walked off without us and other people on the bus! a short plan of what was happening or a itinerary would have been good!

          Fantastic Experience
          The company were brilliant. Great communication throughout regarding timing, pickups and meeting points and the service ran on time. The guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient and the fact it was run so smoothly, meant we could relax and focus on the experience at Auschwitz and Birkenau.

          Do not use AT Cracow for Auschwitz trips
          Do not use this company they cancelled at the last minute! I received a message at 15:30pm the day before our trip to say they had been unable to get a guide so had to cancel the trip. We were devastated as this was the main reason for our trip to Krakow. From reading other negative reviews it seems to be a frequent thing for them to do! Luckily we went to a tourist information who managed to contact a company they use Zee travels and he arranged it for us. After speaking with a few ppl it seems AT Cracow don’t book the tickets when you book your trip then leave things to last minute. I wouldn’t mind if they had told us a full day before but late afternoon the day before left is with hardly anytime to rearrange. We got lucky with zee tours but many ppl aren’t so lucky

          Can’t recommend this organizer
          The planned trip was a big disappointment. The trip to Auschwitz was booked and paid well in advance, but on the previous afternoon I received a message that it was cancelled. They did offer a new date but unfortunately we were on our way home already then. No reason was given for the cancellation. I can't recommend this organizer.

        Excellent service, very informative, they even sent a text on the morning advising that they were running a few minutes late. Plenty of comfort breaks, and time for a drink. Guides at both sites were excellent. The lady on our mini bus was very knowledgeable and made sure everyone was happy xx great company to book your tours with x

        This is an incredible tour. It has everything, Auschwitz and Birkenau are both very emotional places to visit as it explains to you the horrific experiences prisoners had to endure through the Second World War, and the Salt Mines tour is an unbelievable experience, would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. Our guide Daniel was also very helpful and informative.

        My family booked this expedition months in advance. Paid for the experience and one day before the tour was to happen. It was canceled. Fortunately I paid with a visa, but they have yet to refund our money. Please do not use this company as it is now one month later, and there is no resolution.

        The tour was great! We did this tour on our last day in Krakow, so our guide kept our luggage in the vehicle throughout our tour so we wouldn’t have to store it at the train station. The vehicle for the tour was comfortable and clean, and our guide was able to give us great background information :).
