Chris has a comfortable car and social distances. We asked him to do our airport-hotel transfer and four trips, Jewish Quarter, Schindler’s Factory, Salt Mines and of course Auschwitz. Went as smooth as clockwork. Chris is personable, knows his stuff and delivers in an informative way. Bespoke private service. Faultless 6 stars. Nice guy, follow this advice. You get what you pay for but he is a bargain.

The driver will pick you up at the final marina. You will also visit the ruins of Niedzica Castle, beautifully situated on Lake Czorsztyn.

I was a bit dubious about booking this tour as I done so via Viator and it only had a few reviews at the time, but this was the only operator offering an early morning departure. The communication before hand was superb confirming the pick up time that I had requested. The driver on the day was on time and very friendly with the whole tour extremely well organised and transport (minivan) very comfortable. Our tour guide at Auschwitz was absolutely amazing for one of, if not the most, emotional tours I’ve participated in. We had our driver waiting for us at the end to take us back and never felt rushed. I have recommended this tour via this operator to others and would not hesitate to use Poland Active for other activities in the future. Thank you.

We were picked up on time by Wojciech. He was a fantastic guide. From start to finish we were looked after perfectly. It is quite a long drive but absolutely worth it. The scenery is outstanding. We enjoyed seeing traditional wooden houses and 15th century Church of St Michael the Archangel. Rafting in Dunajec was pleasant. The rafts hold 12 people and it was quite busy.
