It was well organised except that we weren't collected from our hotel. We were also asked initially to walk a 20 minute distance to get the bus at 6.25am, however, when I said it was too far a better arrangement was made. Andrea (the Italian man) was very helpful and pleasant. The guides were also very good and informative. It was a great experience Mark & Rhona

There was a really lack of communication from the driver who often left us stood waiting for him. We had breaks in places where we couldn't go inside or when we returned he wasn't on the bus leaving us in the cold. His driving was also pretty scary. That said, the place we went to met our expectations.

Great experience overall. We overslept and missed the bus but met the group going from Auswitch. We took an Uber and everyone from the company were very helpful guiding us to meet the group. We got to experience Auswitch a little bit but got the whole Birkenau tour. Although a very sad history lesson a good reminder of how ugly the world can be and that we can not close our eyes to the current situation in Ukrain! The guide was spectacular and the salt mines a must. Thank you 🙏
