Step by Step

By joining this approximately four-hour tour of Krakow, you will be able to recall the historical events that marked the city during World War II in small groups of around 15 people.

A professional local guide will tell you about the milestones of the Nazi occupation of Poland, taking you to explore places such as:

  • Schindler's Factory: Oskar Schindler was a Nazi-connected businessman who sheltered and protected over a thousand Jews in his factory during the Nazi occupation. Today it is a museum with exhibits that tell his amazing story.
  • Plaszow concentration camp: in the suburbs of Kraków, the Nazis established this camp to incarcerate Polish citizens for 'indiscipline' and political crimes, holding up to 20,000 prisoners.
  • Ghetto Heroes' Square: here Jews were rounded up and deported, and then transferred to concentration camps in Kraków. In the square there is a monument of empty chairs in honour of those executed in the Second World War.
  • Krakus Mound: this 16-metre high mound offers one of the most beautiful and spectacular panoramic views of Kraków.

You can choose between two options: the regular tour, which includes tram tickets, and the private tour, which provides you with a dedicated vehicle and pick-up from your accommodation for you and your group. Both options include entrance tickets to the Oskar Schindler Factory.

    Very good tour, both the guide and the driver were impeccable, I recommend the option with transport as you can enjoy the trip much more that way.
