Excellent tour guide, skip-the-line is a MUST! - Excellent experience. Our guide Bartholomew was engaging and knowledgeable. We were so appreciative of the skip-the-line aspect as the general tours had waits of several hours! A really pleasant experience.

A really incredible museum - Very interesting museum, which is more a sociopolitical history of Krakow 1939-45. Phil was a very knowledgeable guide and gave us a lot of information

Ok but not worth the money - We were a bigger group than normally they have (20 maximun and now we were 24 or 25) and it was really difficult to hear what the guide said. Also the tour went so fast that there was not really time to look around at all.

Disappointing - This was a very disappointing tour, the organizer of the company turned up at 1.15pm for a 1.05pm tour after being told to be there 15mins before the tour started. I rang the company in relation to what was happening as there was no communication from the company. The tour was rushed and did not have enough time to read the information. The tour guide was very informative throughout the tour

No need for this Guide - The cost of the ticket was 40zT for the admission and 100zT for the Guide who was rude and a very poor presenter. My 12 granddaughter would have given a better presentation!! 20plus people in the group crushed into a small space. NO TIME to view the display due to the guides rush to get out. Don’t waste your money do a bit of research before you go and pay just 40zT for admission and DROP THE GUIDE.

Don’t do it - The tour guide was 10 minutes late to meet us and Viator customer service did not answer chat messages. Once inside we were not provided with headsets and the guide spoke very low. There was no time given to explore any artifacts or all questions. I would not recommend this tour to anyone.

D'ont book a private tour!! - -No tour guide needed (self guided museum). This way you can see the exhibits at your own pace. -Unfortunately, no head sets were provided so it was very hard to hear the tour guide in a very crowded/noisy museum.

Disappointed - Was way too rushed and too many people on the tour which meant many couldn’t hear the guide. We tried to read the many fact “posters” but found ourselves blocking the following tour. Would have preferred to pay entry only and seen the museum at our own pace. Your representative was late, resulting in many having to call you to find out what was going on to the point where we all thought we were being scammed. Can’t fault our museum tour guide, she tried her best in a very busy environment.
