“This was a wonderful trip. It was a long way from Krakow but worth the distance and experience. Marek, our driver, was excellent. His English was very good and his knowledge on Poland and in particular Czetzochowa and Wadowice was great. He was very good company and we thank him for making this a day to remember.”
8-hour Krakow day trip to Jasna Gora for the Black Madonna, plus time in Czestochowa and Pieskowa Skala castle. Small group.
“While both tour destinations were outstanding and well worth a visit if a castle visit and religious shrine are your interests, we could have done without the snarky, anti-religion attitude of Andrew the tour guide. Fortunately, most of the visit to the shrine was self-guided after a brief introduction by Andrew. He should present a neutral opinion since most people taking this tour are almost certainly going for a spiritual experience. There were several museums at the site he just pointed out the entrance to. Other guides were together with other groups in the museums, offering commentary, etc. Why not with this pricey tour?”

“We booked and had the trip confirmed. We were only in Krakow for a few days and this was the main trip we were looking forward to. They were supposed to pick us up at 9. By 9.15 I hadn’t heard and realised something was wrong. I tried going to their website which doesn’t exist. Eventually they replied via viator. Not to apologise or explain but just to say it was rescheduled to the next day. We couldn't do the next day and by then it did feel like a scam. They have refunded me but if I hadn’t chased what would have happened? I wonder how many others have…”

“Wonderful day trip and am so glad it was not peak season. We went on a Saturday and there was already a crowd there (our guide, Kamil) said it is even more crowded during the summer and spring months. Kamil was very knowledgeable and as there only 2 of us, the pace was pretty good which was great for my elderly mother. Worth the day trip to this pilgrimage place”

“Our driver was right on time to pick us up at our hotel and the drive to Częstochowa went well. However, once we arrived our guide was not there to meet us. We later learned that she had not been informed that she had a tour with us. We ended up exploring a bit on our own (which was fine) and our driver tried to explain a few things, but since his English wasn't too good, communication was difficult. Once we met up with our guide, she was terrific. She based what she showed us on what we had already seen and did a wonderful job. She was very informative…”
