Helena is an outstanding guide and vital to learning about Jewish history in Krakow
Emma_V, Apr 2024
It's a long day with a lot of standing (and not as much walking as I thought), but our guide Helena did an outstanding job of conveying Jewish history from the historic quarter south of Krakow through to World War II and the aftermath. The full five hours was needed, as was doing the walks before and after Schindler. My only negative was the tour of Schindler's Factory. We had a group of four on the walk around the Jewish Quarter prior to the factory, and a group of 9 after the factory to the ghetto. In the factory, the group size was over 20 and most of the time we couldn't see what Helena was talking about. The museum is not big enough to handle those group sizes. I hope in the future the company limits the museum tour group size a bit better, especially for those paying for the walking tour before and after. We were disappointed with the museum visit and wish we had done the museum on our own. For the walks, we absolutely needed Helena and are so grateful she was our guide.
Excellent Tour with an Excellent Tour Guide!

Barbara was our tour guide and she was excellent! She was very knowledgeable and helped us to understand the growth of the Jewish population in Krakow as well as the tragic push into the getto and the final move to the extermination camp. She also walked us through the entire program within the Oskar Schindler Museum. I was impressed with Barbara’s skill as a tour guide as well as the depth of her knowledge!
Bring lunch

Was a great tour of the Jewish Quarter and the Ghetto. Schindler's Factory was very interesting. The guide was very informative and knowledgeable
Very Somber Experience

The tour guide was very knowledgeable, but unfortunately, the whole situation is very rushed. I would definitely do the tour not in a group next time because they hurried us through everything.
Would recommend this tour for anyone coming to Krakow.

Our tour guide Phil was amazing! He was extremely knowledge and covered absolutely everything. Thank you Phil.
Fabulous, informative tour.
Chris_W, Jul 2023
Our guide was fabulous, very knowledgeable and very interesting to listen to. Any random questions people asked could be answered!! He also explained the subtleties of Schindler's museum the way it's been designed etc which would have been missed by us. We did this tour 7 years ago with another company, this was far better. Apologies for not remembering our guides name.
