Easy to book tickets! Punctuality of the guide! Very interesting! We are French and she spoke in English very slowly so that we could understand! Very cultured! She fascinated her audience!

The speaker was excellent. Very knowledgeable and available. However, as I did not receive confirmation of my booking, after several days I bought tickets again and paid €89 twice. I would appreciate a refund.

Looking at what the castle has and hearing about all the history was interesting. Didn't enjoy the guide though, couldn't understand him and he was arrogant and a bit rude at times

Un guide très bien. Un français parfait et clair. Une bonne organisation. Seul bémol la visite n'implique pas la visite de toutes les salles du château.

I just wanted to say that Krzysztof/Christoph is the most wonderful tour guide imaginable. He is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his subject and I feel extremely lucky to have had him as the guide. I have spent three terrific days in Kraków, but the tour today was the best experience of all. Please pass on my sincere thanks and compliments to Krzysztof. He is an asset to your organisation.

Die Anlage des Wawel ist sehr beeindruckend. Unsere Tourführerin erzählte flüssing und interessant, machte uns auf viele Details aufmerksam, brachte uns viele politische und gesellschaftliche Hintergründe der damaligen Zeit und der Herrschenden nahe. Insgesamt eine gelungene und sehr interessante Führung.

Ticket system worked great, the tour was very good and informative, I had two isses though, my headset did'nt work and the guide didnt carry a spare so I had to listen through one ear phone from my partners set, our guide spoke very quickly so through one ear i had difficulty hearing her.

Our guide in the cathedral is as full of information. We loved the fire breathing dragon at the base of the hill. To be honest we were not that excited by the castle interior.

The guided tour was very well commented and led by our guide, who was really very dynamic and interesting. She was able to give us a "summary" of the history of Krakow and Poland in two hours, non-stop! She also shared her passion for her country. We'll be back :-)

We liked sincere, intelligent and informative work of our guide, and we learnt so much having a wonderful time in the Palace and around. Just our guide did not asked where are we from and how/why we are interested in the history of the Republic of TWO Nations. She was talking as if only single state - Poland existed in the history. Why not to check the constitution of the state and to mention its unigui aspect?! So, guide should be less nationalistically oriented and more sensitive to the visitor's nationality and paying attention to the Lithuanian part in the JOINT history Thank you so much!

Very nice and above all atmospheric round trip. Early December with decorated tables, fairy lights everywhere and a Christmas playlist. Admittedly, the tour was interrupted somewhat chaotically by a few sightseeing explanations in different languages, fortunately not so often, and fortunately we had already explored the city beforehand, so we definitely preferred the Christmas playlist. :-) All this with a warm drink from the little bar, perfect.

The Schindler's Factory Guided Tour itself was very detailed. My husband and I learned a lot about the Nazi invasion of Poland. It was very informative. There were short videos, and even a theater of interviews done were well made. However, the tour groups were quite loud, and it felt that the individual tourists were in their way. So we had to either go ahead and rush through the exhibit or wait for the tour groups to finish. Since purchasing tickets can be done online with specific time slots, it would have been better if these tour groups had specific allotted time only and specific allotted time for individual guided tours so it won't disrupt or cause delay for the ones not in the tour group. Overall, informative exhibit. Thanks!

It is over busy with too many visitors in large groups blocking progress . and a bit rushed. More like an exhibits museum and nothing like a factory visit? Just. aone room included with ceramic pots then mostly photos Tom there? Not really a factory experience. 3d photos as first experience was excellent. Sadly downhill from there. At least we did it. Ron there.

The museum is a marvel; I think you could spend a day there, given the wealth of documents, photos, videos... It's perfect for those who want to take advantage of the free ticket.

The factory museum is a great introduction to the WW2 history of Krakow if you haven't already completed a factory tour. The arrival process would be improved if the rep was there 15 minutes before the start time to help ease any confusion as to what we were to do on arrival

I thought I had a choice if I wanted a guided tour or not. We arrived in plenty of time. Massive queue outside venue and no indication of where to wait. Asked another guide who said look for a particular guide. The guide turned up later than my indicated entrance time. He was informative but abrupt and once he had informed me that we weren't on a guided tour said 'hurry up, go in now' or words to that effect.

The interactive-ness was great to immerese ourselves on the experience, how lights and sounds accompanied the exhibitions was onpoint. Very respectful towards such hurtful events. My only comment would be to have a better alignment when having school visits, as we were caught in between two different groups and it was not pleasant at all.

Buying the voucher itself was very easy, although we thought it would be the tickets themselves. What we didn't like was the disorganization and lack of signage on site. When we arrived, we found out that we had to exchange the voucher for the tickets. However, there was no clear indication of where to exchange and the information we received was unclear.

The name of the tour is misleading as I skipped nothing at all. We thought we had a guided tour or at least a self guided audio tour, but we got nothing, the person suppling us with the final tickets was late and then he couldn't open his phone app. The tour was ok but extremely busy so trying to read all the information was impossible. Very disappointed.

I thought the tour would be about Schindler and how he helped the Jewish children but it was about how the Russians and Germans invaded krakow.everyone who buys a ticket must realise that the ticket just gets you through the door,there is no guide you have to pay extra.the person who gives you the ticket outside the building was of no help in explaining anything either ,so the whole thing was very disappointing.
