Our trip to Auschwitz was superbly arranged and both Patrick our driver and the guide at the museum were highly professional and very informative. I was most impressed with the contact before the trip, updating times and all necessary information. Highly recommend!

Auswitch and river cruise

Booked Auswitch through HelloCracow as it was recommended by a friend who used them. I cannot fault them in anyway at all - great communication throughout. I was worried that it would be an early start, but thankfully the pick up wasn't until 11am which suited me and my wife. The driver and the person that checked you all in (can't remember names) were very friendly and gave us all the information we needed before the tour. Because of this we also Booked the river cruise through them (cheaper than booking direct) and can't fault them for this either...even if it was knly 45 mins long. Overall great experience and would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Highly recommended

The tour was very well organized. The English-speaking guide in Auschwitz (Helenka?) was particularly professional and had a wealth of knowledge, which she conveyed in a very impressive and sensitive manner in excellent English. We booked at short notice the day before. We brought a picnic with us, which we could leave on the bus and eat during the break.

AUCHWITZ

I booked this trip for myself and daughter to Auchwitz and Birkenow. Communication was very good. Although i selected a later pick up was told it was earlier due to issues at the camp. Apart from that everything was great.

Fab 3 days in the wonderful Krakow

We used Hello Cracow for our trips to Auschwitz and the Salt Mines 23rd & 24th February 2026. We highly recommend this tour operator. The drivers Bogdan & Marcin were very prompt & courteous and Patrycja kept us constantly updated on times & arrangements via WhatsApp.
Thank you Hello Cracow. Both of our tours ran very smooth & were an enjoyable experience.
We look forward to using you again if we returnto Krakow.

Very Informative Guide, learned a lot historically

I booked through Viator as I have many times before and the local guide hellocracow was in constant contact before the trip through what's app letting us know what the agenda was for our trip and exactly what was happening, we had a fantastic local bus driver and a very informative tour guide for Aushwitz day trip. I would recommend this tour , we were very well looked after all day

Auschwitz and salt mine

We booked auschwitz and salt mines through the hellocracow website and the response was very quick in which they asked did we want to organise everything through whatsapp which made everything easier with an option to have the driver bring a packed lunch for us. Daniel was our driver for auschwitz and was very friendly and helpful to everyone. After auschwitz we were brought back to krakow got an hour break and then collected by alex to bring us salt mines who was also friendly and very helpful. We were given a time for both collections and both drivers were on time with no delay. I would highly reccomend using hellocracow as our experience was 5 stars.

Professional, friendly staff. Trip as advertised.

We booked the Auschwitz trip via GYG. We selected and paid for a specific time slot as aware some companies change times. Definitely worth it as mo changes in times for us. Excellent communication via WhatsApp by #HelloCracow. Answered queries timeously. Exact details sent days before trip. Opportunity given to purchase lunch box at this time which I would recommend if not taking your own food/drinks as limited time to purchase during the trip. Pick up as scheduled and tickets, with our names, given out on bus trip there. Friendly informative guides. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again.

Wieliczka and Zakopane

We booked two tours, one for Wieliczka and one for the thermal baths at Zakopane.
Everything was great except for the funicular at Zakopane. There I think they usually skip the queue but this time we were a group of 8 and for some reason they didn't allow it. The same thing happened to a different group but not to others. There's clearly something shady going on. Anyway the guide/driver was constantly in a rush so he lead us to cut in line,(at least one hour waiting time) which made us feel pretty awful. He was rushing at other stops too apparently due to the fact that large busses were schedueled very close to out party. He even got a speeding ticket.
Wieliczka was great, I recommend just taking the bus there, the public transport is really good, the place is really incredible

Not to be missed

We booked the Auschwitz Birkenau tour together with the Salt mines on one day. We did 18,000 steps during the 12 hour outing. We were booked to be picked up at an agreed rendezvous at 09:00, which was changed to 07:30 once we had paid!! (You can call me cynical!) the earlier start meant we missed a sit down breakfast at the hotel. However, they suggested we take from the buffet and provided two boxes for us (Hotel Francheska, highly recommended.)

Greg the driver from Hello Krakow was a misery, first interaction was ‘you can’t take these on’ referring to us both holding empty coffee cups and looking for a bin before getting in his people carrier.

The two other couples and one other lady were good to get to know and we enjoyed their company.

The Salt Mine tour is an interesting experience. The guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. There are a lot of steps, mostly down but even so it took its toll on our 67 year old legs. Nevertheless, it’s worth a visit.

Auschwitz and Birkenau, are everything you expect and more. We were taken back to the rendezvous point by Miserable Gregg, to be picked up by a coach that took us the 90 minute journey to Auschwitz.

Again the guide was very knowledgeable at both locations. We had headphones to listen to his commentary but not at Birkenau, not sure why!

Very moving experience in both museums and respect paid by visitors and guides when witnessing the exhibits. We were really impressed that the curators of the museums didn’t feel it necessary to display photos of the dead bodies, as so often exhibited suitcases, spectacles and most powerfully the amount of human hair taken from the prisoners.

Very moving experiences, not for the faint hearted but a must to understand ‘man’s inhumanity man’.

Golf Buggy Tour Krakow

Booked a Golf Buggy Tour in Krakow for the Ghetto and Jewish Quarter duration 1.5hrs. Fantastic communication via Wattsapp and Google pin drops to help us find pick up location. Great day with a friendly guide ( Thomas I think 🤔) which helped make the afternoon very enjoyable for my daughter and myself, highly recommend hellocracow.com, Graham and Toni 👍
