Our guide was so informative and i learned so much on this tour, very eye opening. Booking was very easy and we just waited at the meeting point outside where our guide came with a list of names to greet us. No long cues, definitely recommend.

An interactive museum for understanding history... and integrating it. The French guide was great! I'd do it again ... very well thought-out and a very good experience. A must-see if you're ever in Krakow!

Very good tour but very crowded. We were on guided tour but also lots of people on general admission going the opposite direction etc. makes it hard to stay with guide sometimes. Good museum but doesn't say much about Schindler himself really. However does tell the story of the Krakow in the lead up to and during the war very well.

The guide was wonderful and really brought the history of the terrible events leading up to and during the 2nd world war to life. I think you really need a guide to get the most out of your visit. Thank you so much, unfortunately cannot remember her name but the tour was 21st January at 2.10pm with the English speaking guide, thank you so much

The experience was wonderful, and although I speak little English, the guide was very kind, she explained things calmly and slowly, a lady with a lot of knowledge. Thank you very much, from Costa Rica.
