          Great Nikiszowiec Tour
          Great tour of the mining town of Nikiszowiec. The guide was very knowledgeable about the town, and the history of the region.

          Trip to Auschwitz and salt mines
          A quick message to thank you for organising the excursions for us throughout our stay in Poland. Big thanks to our driver to the salt mines "Kamil", a very helpful service provided by you, him and all at silesiatrip. I would definitely recommend your company and hope to use it again soon on our next trip to Poland. Very friendly staff and very reliable.

          Trip to Auschwitz
          Very well organised. The shop wasn’t open when we stopped by but they responded to my email straight away. The trip was very well organised and stuck to the schedule. The staff were very helpful and friendly and spoke great English. The cars were clean and comfortable and the driver was on time! I would highly recommend them.

          Reliable and Organised
          Reliable, well organised and friendly service. Picked us up from our hotel on time, as agreed. Drivers spoke English, which helped us greatly as we speak no Polish. Buses were in good condition, seats were comfortable, with working air conditioning and heating. Tours were well organised with well informed tour guides.

          Great service, awesome trip
          It was my second trip in half year with Silesia trips company. As always, amazing service, nice, helpful guys, interesting excursions. We were 10 people and we visited Auschwitz and Birkenau memorial complex and after that we went to see the salt mine in Velichka. The tour leader guys were VERY understanding and helpful. If i ever go to Krakow or Katowice again and will need a trip, i will never go to any other company. This one is a rock solid deal. Thank you again for the great trip!!!

          Auschwitz-Birkenau
          We used Silesia Trips & Hotels to travel to the Auschwitz Birkenau, and the whole program was perfect, we were picked up by a very nice driver who told us a little about the history before meeting our guide. It was really worth a visit, historically. It was worth every penny. Recommended !!

          Excellent service
          We used the company for airport transfers and for visits to Auswitz, and also, on a separate day, to the salt mine. Vehicles were clean and comfortable and the driver we had was polite and informative and punctual. I highly recommend this company.

          Auschwitz and Birkenau
          We were traveling with my brother and were thrilled to visit such an important place of the world history. The trip and excursion was organised the best way it could be. The guide was very interesting to listen to and Kamil, who brought us there was always there for us and explained everything. The service is the best I've ever received and definitely recommend Silesia Trip to everyone who wants to visit Poland and have good qualified excursion. Thank you so much!!!

          Very professional and fun
          cannot recommend them highly enough, fantastic service and everything we asked for was delivered. The high point was our transfer to Warsaw where our driver was the owner of the company, a very nice young man with wonderful insight into Poland and their culture. Highly recommended.

          Silesia Trip & Hotels from Katowice - local and worth it!
          We took three trips with this company - to Krakow, Auschwitz and the salt mine. They were professional, on time, and took care of everything as planned. Highly recommend Kamil and his team of drivers. One drawback - cash only. So make sure you have zlotys or euros. One plus - you pay at end of trip during drop off.

          Tour to Auschwitz
          I had 10 hrs between the flights in KTW airport and decided to visit Auschwitz. Found Silesia trip on net and contacted them, we agreed transfers and tour. Very reliable company, good communication, great service. Special thanks to Mateus who took me to Auschwitz and told me a bit more about history of Katowice, Silesia region. I would use them again if I'm back there.

        Booked the Auschwitz tour 2 days ahead, all confirmed. Picked up on time. Then we got there, they couldn't get us tickets to get in. So essentially we just went for a ride to Oswiecim and back to Katowice, a real waste of time. Needless to say we were refunded and the tour leader was apologetic, but I expect a tour company to be able to get the basics right and be aware of up-to-date Covid ticket limits.

        Buyer beware. We failed to go on this trip Viator and Silesia Trip & Hotels told us its our fault. Book if you want to risk going all the way to mot do the trip. Here is what you must do. Ignore the fact you choose a time and a limited number of hotels for the pick up point The day before you will receive a voucher that has your ageed pick up point on but no time. Do not message them via Trip Advisor it will come back saying they are closed and opening time is 9am Monday Our trip was Sunday and the message sent Saturday. ignore the fact it says they are closed they will respond 3 hours and 17 minutes later Stay in your hotel so you have internet access and wait they will reply eventually. Instead ring them and you will have a long repetitive conversation with a gentleman who will keep telling you to listen and it's not their problem as 25 other people knew what to do. They will offer you the opportunity to buy the whole trip again at the full price once, don't argue as that will be immediately withdrawn and they will inform you it is buyer beware. You are responsibility to know the time will not be the one you booked and that is your fault. you will request a refund and be told the same your fault no refund.

        The driver was very kind. He excused himself on his english not being the best, but was resourceful enough to use google translate to fill the gaps. The educator/guide for the english tour was excellent. He is very knowledgeable about the history of the camps and his care about the place shows. The tour is a little bit quick-paced so try to stay close to the guide or you may miss some info (there was some interference on the audio system because of the rain).

        I usually don't like guided tours, but I totally recommend this one.

        We had already visited the camp, but decided to bring our 8 year old son. We avoided some pwr rooms that were too strong but overall he understood and appreciated. They have added a slightly more multimedia, nice and impactful new room. It's a shame for the less than empathetic guide, who was very hasty and at times cold in explaining.
