Everything is fine but our group, a school, had 16 participants and we were able to book only 14. It ended up fine, actually as we all could participate but for this amount of people, there should be an arrangement.

It was a very nice experience, our guide walked us through the museum and talked about the highlights of it in great detail. He was really informative about the situation in Poland and more specifically in Krakow during WWII. The technical details before we started really set the mood for the whole tour. I would just advise adding that the tickets are single entrance only and once you get out you can't go back in to explore more. I hadn't realised that and had wanted to go back and revisit some of the exhibitions but couldn't after we finished our tour. Overall very positive expereinece and would definitely recommend.

Very interesting and interactive museum showing not only Schindlers factory but also what life was like during the occupation. Our guide was very knowledgeable, explaining the exhibits. I would recommend a guided tour as we received so much additional information. It was a last minute addition to our itinerary and I'm so pleased we went.

It was great and well explained. The only downside was that the headphones weren't really comfortable and the sound quality was horrible for an audio-guide. For the rest, it was top-notch!
