ATTENTION !!!! This is NOT a visit to the SCHINDLER FACTORY!!! But really a visit to a museum about Krakow's history during the Second World War! Title misleading on booking site, disappointed by this kind of tourist trap... The French-speaking guide didn't make sure the headphones were working properly during the tour, and complained that she had to go back downstairs to fix the problem. 1.5-hour visit at a snail's pace... small museum, little space and lots of groups. You can hardly see anything during the tour, it's so fast... Prefer a visit without a guide for 25zt with the paper guide, and above all, it will be at your own pace!

What made the difference and made this experience better than others was: the human guide. The museum was not what I expected as instead of a "factory" it's a collection of images and stories, but the guide was very good in helping us make sense of what we were seeing and teaching us a nice history lesson.

An informative and brilliant couple of hours. Our guide was superb and really brought the story of Krakow in the second world war to life. It was a hard listen with what went on but he was very humble and respectful with the facts. Highly recommended.

Definitely to be improved is the organization of excursions, since given the tight space it is not possible to follow the guide's information given the considerable confusion of other visitors .
