Our tour guide was very informative and pleasant. We used headsets but thankfully rarely needed them. The museum is about what poland was like during the war. Great knowledge and displays created this visual awareness and sense. Lots to take in.

Experience was informative the only downside to the day was the fact that while we were in a guided tour other people were on their own and was walking past us as well as talking which was disconcerting while trying to listen to the guide. As always time is a issue and it felt a bit rushed. But the guide was really good and made the day really enjoyable

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and she was able to keep the group interested and had our full attention throughout. Was able to answer any questions from the group. I would suggest to anyone visiting Krakow to do the Schindler factory tour and the ghetto tour. We have to remember the past .

Filip was probably one of the best, most professional, most informative guides I have had the pleasure to meet. He deserves a raise! And all of us on the tour thought so too. 5 star experience!

With a guide fluent in your preferred language, discover tales of bravery, survival, and tragedy etched into the fabric of these historical landmarks. The Schindler's Factory Museum, brought to global attention through Spielberg's Oscar-winning ‘Schindler's List’, allows you to encounter the impact of Oskar Schindler's heroic actions during the Second World War.

Glimpses of a forgotten past

Venture into the once-enclosed Jewish Ghetto, where remnants of the brutal past are still visible. See the undestroyed wall, explore the houses that became unwilling homes for displaced Jews, and behold the poignant monument in Heroes' Square.
