    This was an amazing experience. The transport ran like clockwork and Tomas our driver was brilliant. Picked up outside our Airbnb and dropped off at end of the day right outside. You will need to be ready for pick up at around 6am but it’s so worth the early rise. A harrowing but unforgettable day

    Can’t recommend enough! As a solo female traveler also they couldn’t have been more helpful/ made me feel included. Lunch was so filling I took some back for dinner! Would definitely book again!

    Of course I have read the stories, watched the documentaries and saw the photographs but to actually be there was chilling. It was a beautiful winters day but you could only imagine horror on a freezing Winter’s day or a blistering Summer’s day for the unfortunate inmates of these camps. The guide was very informative and respectful and we visited various barracks and torture cells where the suffering of those poor people could barely be imagined. Man’s potential for cruelty and depravity never ceases to amaze. Very well organised and conducted trip. I would highly recommend it.

    Excellent trip that we would recommend anyone travelling to Krakow to do. We were picked up on time and everything went smoothly.

    Very good guide, not only covered the history of both locations but also the questions about human behaviour and psychology the the acts carried out their raise. As the guide was polish and had family history linked with the location and activity that occurred their he spoke with passion and also highlighted that even once the Germans were removed by the Russians Poland was still not liberated as it lived under the yoke of soviet oppression and some unfortunate individuals went from Auswitz to the GULAG. Let us not forget most of Europe was not liberated after WW2, the just moved from one totalitarian dictatorship run through fear to another!

    Absolutely never write reviews but feel I should this time. Mr Shuttle proved to be an exceptionally good choice, everything from the airport transfers to the tour were done to the highest level. Topped off with very friendly and helpful drivers and a great level of punctuality which made our trip so much more stress free, especially when dealing with a group of 12 of us. Very highly recommend this company

    Venture 210 feet below the surface into a hidden world of salt. Explore St. Kingas Chapel and discover an ornate underground church sculpted entirely from salt.

    Worthwhile tour. Everything went according to schedule. Auschwitz/Birkenau was a very somber experience.

    So thoughtful, friendly & really knowledgeable of the history of both Poland & the camps. The car was lovely & clean & Tomasz arranged pre packed lunches and they are well worth it! Emotional but must see visit.

    This is an experience that everybody should have. The tour guide we had was emotionally invested and was by far the most knowledgeable, most approachable. The driver was friendly and knowledgeable again.

    The tour was incredible from start to finish. Very kind drivers and an extremely knowledgeable guide. The tour of Auschwitz is extremely impactful and challenging, so it's very important that it be as well organized as it was.

    Picked up from our hotel by Artur and we were joined by 6 other passengers before heading to Auschwitz and Birkenau. Such a thought provoking and emotional trip. Our guide was terrific and very knowledgeable.

    I came here with my partner in December. We came as part of an organised tour arranged by the Mr shuttle company. As far as this tour goes it was excellent, out guide was hilarious.

    The carvings were stunning, and the underground chapel was beautiful. The guide spoke good English, though it was quite busy inside. Overall, a well-organized excursion. Really cool tour!

    The sculptures are beautiful, and the tour sharing the history of the mines was very interesting. I would highly recommend this tour.

    St Kinga's underground Chapel is breathtaking! There was a chapel carved out of rock salt, amazing statues, alters and 3D type pictures, all carved out of salt, even the crystals on the chandeliers were made from polished salt.

    Beautiful mines. Tour started at 10:00 so I grabbed a quick cup of tea from the kiosk. Small group of us given headset and instructions from our wonderful guide. Then headed off down so many steps. Can't tell you how I felt seeing the huge chapel below with crystal chandeliers made from salt.
