A very respectful and worthwhile visit. The pace was just right, although there were some emotionally heavy moments. I came away feeling that I had gained a better understanding of the place.

The tour lived up to its promise. The coach was fine, the entry was well organised and the guide accompanied us throughout. It’s important to bring a small rucksack.

I went with my partner and we both came away quite moved. The logistics from Kraków were straightforward, and having a guide in Spanish made a huge difference.

The tour is understated and highly educational. It’s not exactly light-hearted, of course, but I appreciated that the guide didn’t resort to sensationalism and explained the facts calmly.
