I received no notification to say that the tour time had changed from 6.30 to 4 am. Then we were told that there was no guarantee that we were going to get in. This is why we had to go so early so we could stand in a line for 2-3 hours. When I purchased this ticket i assumed that meant that we had a ticket and a time. No where was it written that we needed to leave before daylight and queue in a line with no guarantee. There is no way in Australia that this would be allowed. I was lucky that I had an international phone and I contacted the tour company and they arranged for me to do the tour on the following day. As I arrived at the pickup place at 6.30. We then were sent in a taxi to the salt mine. We advised them when the tour started and they arranged for a taxi to pick us up. The trouble was that the location that the taxi was waiting for us was unknown to us as we were tourists. We walked around trying to find where it was. We had to ask for directions from police. To me there should of been someone from the tour company with us until we were picked up.

Everything was perfectly organized. Daniel excellent took care of a small problem with the name of the ticket. Excellent guides at both Auschwitz & Salt Works. Change in departure time but better because you get back earlier.

Foi um mau para visitar Auschwitz, estando demasiada gente, tendo sentido pressão por parte do guia para acelerar a visita não podendo ter uma análise mais introspectiva do local onde estava (nem sequer de ler as placas informativas).

Transportation and tour were fine, we had a nice lunch and the salt mine tour is wonderful! The only thing is and I warn you... They will change the hour of the tour on the day before, depending on their needs, so be prepared! Mine was schedule for a 7h15am pick up, but we were told the day before around 5pm that we ahould be ready for a 6h25am pick up. So, make your plans accordingly to not miss Auschwitz and the salt mine, both really worthy excursions!

Nous avons très satisfait de notre journée. La visite au camp d'Auschwitz, nous l'avions réservé pour 9h et ils nous l'ont changé à 6h, ce n'était pas très sympa. Cependant, on a passé une super journée, cette visite a été très dure psychologiquement parlant mais très touchante, nous avons eu un guide très professionnel et passionné par un sujet qui est très délicat à raconter. Concernant la mine du sel, c'était un endroit fantastique, le seul point négatif est que la guide n'avait pas de microphone et donc dans certains moments du tour on entendait les autres guides, c'était un bordel. Il serait bien de leur fournir de microphones et aux visiteurs des écouteurs comme on avait fait pour la visite d'Auschwitz. À part ça c'était un journée incroyable, nous avons tellement appris et très ravis de l'avoir fait .
