Description

Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp and the Wieliczka Salt Mine are the most-visited sights in Poland. Discover both attractions on the same day with this full-day Krakow combo tour and save money.

Description

At the time indicated, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Krakow. We'll board a comfortable bus and start our journey by road. Throughout the tour, you'll be joined by an experienced tour leader.

Once we've arrived at the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum, we'll begin this tour with a professional guide who will introduce you to the history of the two sites. For many this place isn't just a memorial site, but an important cultural symbol.

After learning all about Auschwitz and Birkenau and the Second World War in Poland, it's time for our second stop of the day: Wieliczka Salt Mine. Upon arrival, a local guide will tell us all about the past of this mine. You'll see amazing chambers, original sculptures, and the real places where the miners worked.

There will be a break for lunch on tour. However, we recommend bringing snacks with you.

After 11 hours, we'll drop you back off at your hotel.

Everything worked perfectly and full 10 points to the highly professional guides. It was a bit rough to do both of these excursions during the same day, especially since I had an issue with my foot (this day included 25 000 steps of walking for me!) and the salt mine was huge. I can recommend this combo for the fit and energetic, but not maybe for anyone with mobility issues or anyone who suffers from occasional fatigue or something like that.

We really enjoyed this combined tour. Very convenient package with the bus and good guides. The only downside is that it's all a bit fast-paced, there are just some short breaks and in our case there was no break between the two bus rides. After visting Auschwitz-Birkenau, the bus drives you back to the Krakow city centre where we had to run to catch the next bus.

Very Good price from Civitatis! Less than half of the price if you buy it on location. And you get exactly the same tour. The double tour is priceworthy, but a warning is advised, it will be a very, very long day with a lot of walking and an early morning and late night. Be prepared. It is however two fantastic tourist must see places.

Tour was well organized. The bus ride was comfortable and we were able to enjoy watching the countryside. Instructions were good throughout as to what we could expect. Guides were very knowledgeable. Highly recommend, however it makes for a very long day with a good deal of walking. Might be worth breaking it up over two days.

Highly recommend this tour. Although a long day, it's a fantastic tour. We had an amazing guide called Margaret who was so knowledgeable and passionate about Auchwitz, and a fantastic guide called Sebastian at the Salt Mines who was both full of information and highly entertaining.
