I highly recommend it, without any hesitation! The friendliness of the staff and the English-speaking guide were some of the best I have ever had the opportunity to meet. So much emotion, so much symbolism, so much respect, so much knowledge! How can a place where HUMAN BEINGS were brutally decimated without mercy or pity for their peers, transmit so many emotions, including such antagonistic ones as LOVE, SERENITY, PEACE, REVOLT, EMPATHY, HOPE, COURAGE, HATE, FAITH, CONTEMPT, RESILIENCE, TERROR, FEAR, SHAME, SURVIVAL, ALTRUISM, DISRESPECT…! Thank you very much for sharing with us this very dark side of the history of Humanity. Unfortunately, Human Beings have learned nothing since the Holocaust; history repeats itself in other contexts and in other regions of the world. MGC

We enjoyed our bike tour very much thanks to our very good guide. We had a nice tour and this in combination with the many fun facts made this trip very worthwhile. Recommended.

best thing we did in krakow. Tomasz our guide was thorough and interesting. we were three but the tour could be for a group of up to 15.

Fabulous trip. Well worth doling early to get orientated. Found the Ghetto really hard but well worth doing.
