Day Trip to Auschwitz-Birkenau and Wieliczka Salt Mine from Krakow including Lunch

Great time saving tour. It is not super in depth, but it hits all the highlights, and if you're short on time, that's all you can ask for.

What a great day so well organised everything was like clockwork the guides were so knowledgeable first class

We were picked up on time and after a trip of more than one hour arrived at Auschwitz. There we met our guide (whose name i forgot unfortunetaly!) who was extremely knowledgeable! We went to Birkenau as well. He was just as good. The visit to the Salt Mine was just as well organized and very interesting. The lunch kit was adequate but given rather late. By then we were starving!

I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Krakow. Be warned it's an early start and a long day, but it's totally worth it! Couldn't fault it from start to finish (apart from the weather, but you win some you lose some). Driver was excellent and was very knowledgeable about Krakow city, as well as the tour destinations. Great to be picked up and dropped off at our AirBnB and I liked the little touches such as the documentary on the coach and lunch. It's the details that make this tour stand out.

The day trip to both venues was very well organised, communication great with regard to pick up times . Visited saltmines first , guide very knowledgeable ,well worth a visit, some stunning sights , however lots of walking and steps (there is a lift for less able) Took a break for lunch which was provided then off to Auschwitz-Birkenau . Whilst on the bus we watched a documentary which gave background. The tour guide Sebastian was extremely knowledgeable having met survivors . The tour was very moving but is a must see. Long day but excellent and would recommend.

A very informative tour..our guide was great and we had a good host on the bus. Driver was a safe one..which isnt always the case. Packed lunch provided was not edible so take your own or buy something after after rhe tour...orher than that I would recommend this tour.

The day started when we were picked up at 6.10am. When we arrived at Auschwitz, we were allowed 10 minutes to buy a snack for breakfast and eat it !! There was not even enough time to buy anything. The trip around Auschwitz and Birkenau was great, althought there was a lot of wallkingh and the day was hot. The guide was very good. At the conclusion of the Prison camp tour, we were given a packed lunch ( which was not great) and allowed only 15 minutes to eat it before setting off to go to ther Salt Mine. After walking all aroung the camp everyone needed more rest and more time to relax and eat their meal than this !! Arriving at the Salt Mine, we were given 10 minutes toilet break then taken on the tour, walking down vast numbers of steps to get down into the mine...no lift "!! At the end of the tour we were again given 15 minutes to buy and consume refreshments, then on to the coach, returning to Krackow about 5.30pmThis was a very exhausting trip even for the younger members of the group, let alone myself and my travelling companion who are 78 and 79 years old respectively. I DO NOT THINK THESE TRIPS SHOULD BE COMBINED. They are far too rushed. I expected at least a sit down meal at Lunch time and didn't even have time to sit down and eat the packed lunch !! The driver was very good and ebven apologetic about having to rush everything. I think when advertising these trips you should make people aware of the pressure people who go on them are put under to keep up with the frantic pace of the day. It was a great triip....no it was two great trips spoilt by being so frantic .

Fantastic tour guide was exceptional told the history of Auschwitz with true meaning. Again the guide at the salt mine was informative. Would highly recommend the combined trip Lunch was also supplied which was lovely. Travelled to both locations with same driver , watched a film on the way. All round fantastic trip

Couldn't fault anything,,from picking us up,,doing the tours,,then dropping us back off outside hotel..even the lunch provided was lovely.

This is an excellent trip & absolutely necessary to have a guide to give you the story. Harrowing!! But I think everyone should go.
