Go to AB Poland Travel Direct - This is an incredible trip (long ride in the car - 4 hours from Warsaw one way) and I highly recommend it.
HOWEVER, way overpriced. We paid Viator $736 for this trip for my wife and I. Viator subcontracts ALL their trips through a company called, AB Poland Travel”.
This same trip through them direct was only $150 for two people. Do yourself a huge favor and go direct to AB Poland Travel on their website and save yourself a lot of money.

Wolf lair tour - Jack was great! He took the time to find out what I already knew & added.to this, rather than just rattling off a script. Had some great conversations on Polish history outside of the subject matter & was flexible to customize tour to my liking. Would definitely recommend!

Don’t be afraid to go later in the day! - Don’t be afraid to go in the late afternoon. We drove 5 hours across Poland in the early hours to make a day of it. Arrived about 10am and took almost an hour to find parking as the cars were backed up for miles leading up to the main gate. Great visit the place is very interesting and there’s a restaurant just inside the gates. As the place was so busy it was hard to get a picture that didn’t have dozens of tourists in them. When we were leaving around 5pm there were a few people starting their tour. I realised we missed a trick. They had the place to themselves, could take their time, wouldn’t have to fight crowds to get a picture and have their pick of tour guides. Don’t be afraid to go later in day. Getting there early isn’t a must.

Great experience! - Great small group tour. Friendly driver, good companions on the journey. Swieta Lipka was closed so the driver took us to a nearby medieval castle, which also was amazing. Lunch was included with the tour and the restaurant of choice was a nice family run place with traditional Polish food. My vegetarian preferences were honored. All in all, a day well spent. The tour was in March 2019, sorry I'm a little late writing this review.

Historic site - This destroyed headquarters of WW2 Germany is a sad reminder of some German officers attempt to end the war.
A long days travel from Warsaw, (4hrs each way) but worth it for anyone interested in military history & one mans courage to try & save his country.
Our guide was great & spoke excellent English it’s just a very long day touring to see it.

Good trip - AB Poland has provided us with a good journey. We have a great guide Piotr and a driver who drives safely. The service throughout the journey is good. We had delicious dumplings in a very cosy restaurant for lunch. Very happy day! But very tired on the road!

Poor value for money - Whilst the bunker complex was interesting, spending 11 hours on a round trip from Warsaw for 1 hour at the site was poor value for money given the cost being 3x the headline rate and lunch comprising of 1/2 dozen tasteless Russian Dumplings & a glass of water with no choice of anything else in a Restaurant smelling of sewage & awaiting a funeral party!
