This was my favorite day in Poland. Our driver met us right at our hotel, and it was a relaxing drive to the Bialowieza National Park. We first stopped at the reserve to see the animals native to the forest which was really fun and interesting. We were then driven to meet our guide for a hike in the forest. He was fantastic and we learned so much about the plants and animals there. When we returned to the car we were taken to see the czars restaurant and hunting lodge. We then went to a charming restaurant for a delicious lunch. After this we were driven back to Warsaw and let off at our hotel. It was great to get out of the city and be in nature for a day. I highly recommend this tour

We have mixed feelings about this tour. Here are the positives :
+driver was really punctual and very friendly- so were the tour guides
+it's great that everything was pre-arranged for and the tour ran smoothly
+no queues and long waiting times
Now to the negative:
-everything felt very rushed. The guided tour at Auschwitz museum: Literally no time for reading any information in the exhibition. Guide provided us with only basic information that you could read on the captions of the photos anyway. We always had to drag along with the much larger group that we joined at the museum.
-same situation at Krakaw. Felt rushed and we had zero free time for even a coffee or dinner. It would be much better to arrive one hour later at Warsaw (after 11pm not much is open anyway) and have some free time in Krakaw. Bad decision.
-Lunch was really disappointing. We were thrown at a kanteen (not really a restaurant) and we're served what I can only describe as instant noodle soup with cheep quality chicken. Not even drinks were included. Really cheap way to treat your customers that paid almost £200 per person!
-To make things even worse, we were not given any free time for a beverage in Krakaw and on the way back our driver was really rushing. We had a very brief stop at a gas station where the only choice for a so-called-dinner was hot dogs.
-To AB Travel: our feedback is to reconsider the basics of a tour. Decent lunch (for the price it should definitely be way better) and more breaks or time for a proper dinner and later return to Warsaw. These would have made a much better and enjoyable tour.

After reading another review about a person travelling solo, I decided to contact AB Poland and dealt with Karina and Marta. I advised that I only had only 1 date that I could do the tour. At the time there was nothing available so I'd resigned myself to the fact that I wouldn't get to do the tour. Fortunately Marta contacted me the day before the date that I was available, to advise that they had another booking for the following day and was I interested. Yes - you bet I was!
I was picked up the next morning and did the tour with 3 other people who were from Finland.
The guide we had in Krakow - Mateusz, was awesome, engaging and very knowledgeable. We were then picked up again by the driver.
The driver that we had for the day was also Mateusz, we had fog for most of the journey to Auschwitz, and came back in the dark - his driving was brilliant. All of us felt incredibly safe in his hands.
Both of the tours are well worth doing, with incredibly guides at Auschwitz.
Highly recommend dealing with AB Poland, the coordination of the pickups, tours, dropoffs was perfect.

First of all I was grateful for the company's efforts to get me on the tour as I arranged it very last minute and I was only free the next day. The driver Mateusz picked me up on time and was on hand throughout the day. He knew exactly where and when to meet us. The tour itself in Auschwitz is really worth it. It is very sobering, very sad and very informative. A must do if you are in Poland. Afterwards we had a traditional Polish lunch which was included and very nice. From there we drove to Krakow and met our tour guide who was waiting for us. It's a beautiful place with an interesting past. Then it was back to Warsaw. It's a long day but so worth it and there is a stop on the way there and back to get a coffee, food etc. Thank you.

I Stood in Gdynia which is about 30 minutes away by train. So decided to hop on one and travel south. Stopping at Gdansk was a stop well worth it. Walking around and seeing many old buildings, shops and eateries, there was always something to do. Long Street had many restaurants to choose from. Gdsank is a must stop by city!

I took two private tours with this company and was totally amazed with the knowledge of my guide. I am sorry but I can't remember his name. One tour was of the Warsaw Jewish Monuments, and the other was to Treblinka Concentration Camp. The service was professional, clean, and very knowledgeable. The tour can be very strenuous. There are many steps, uneven ground, and can be overwhelming at times. It is not for the faint of heart. However, I highly recommend them. You will NOT be disappointed.

This was our whole purpose to visit Poland.... long day including travel of 16 hours in total but to visit Krakow then Auschwitz- Birkenau was a small price to pay. I have no words for the humanity that did these things or the truly sad and appalling things that took place against these people.... I knew a lot before we visited but leave seeing the whole truth and nothing but. Surely this can NEVER happen again? Birkenau I found the most chilling as the site reminded me of so much that I had learned and expected from documentaries and reading. The guides were absolutely wonderful they provided guidance and information in a truly respectful way to those that perished. Longest excursion I have ever done but one that will stay with me forever.... if you have the strength to visit I urge you to do so even if traveling from Warsaw for the day. Our wander of Krakow provided a brighter side to the tour, a pretty city with so much to offer, quaint but with interesting history so worth a visit too. Thanks to all involved ... never forgotten , forever in our hearts .over our three days in Poland we found a country that was based on incredible courage to rebuild and be what it is now..... loved Warsaw, there is more to this country than the holocaust so a return we shall do some day... thank you Poland xo

JayWay Travel helped us arrange are 12 day trip to Poland. They made it effortless. They picked us up at the airport in Warsaw, picked us up at our Warsaw hotel and provide car transportation to Krakow, arranged for the day trip to Auschwitz, had their driver pick us up at the Krakow hotel and take us to Zakapone, and back to Karkow. Connected us with a fabulous guide for hiking in the Tatras. They provide an excellent list of hotels for us to chose from. Would definitely use them again.

I just came back to my hostel after that great day trip to Auschwitz & Birkenau concentration camps and Krakow tour. Everything was perfectly organized ; punctual driver, Beautiful scenery all the way from Warsaw to Krakow, Highly professional guide in Auschwitz and Krakow, traditional lunch, good company and much more. I am really grateful for Ab Poland Tours for their effort and they really made my stay in Warsaw fruitful after getting to visit Auschwitz and Krakow too. Monica was a very professional tour guide and such a nice person who is ready to answer any questions. Thomas was a good driver eager to get us there on time so that we can make the most out of our day trip. The company I had was British and Australian ladies they were so friendly and nice people who really made my day even better. I highly recommend such day trip to those who are interested in history and who really are ready to walk the extra mile just to enjoy their polish experience to the utmost. Thanks Monica, Thanks Thomas and Thanks AB Poland Tours

Hello,
it's non-smoking, but you can smoke during the stops.
Auschwitz is a non smoke area if you are going to do this tour

Hello, We will be staying in Warsaw and our Polish friends told us to visit the Museum of the Mazovian Countryside in Sierpc and Torun. Is it possible to see both in a day tour? Thanks!
