Guide was terriffic
Great tour!! Driver was very knowledgeable!
Premek was on time. He took his time explaining the ghetto and the fortress before and after Nazi occupation. He also took us to a few museums and explained some of the displayed artwork. Well done.
Our tour guide was excellent and had so much knowledge to share. He asked what we wanted to see and made sure we had the fullest experience. Top notch!
This tour was very good, however time spent walking in the tunnels - that were used for the guards to escape should be shortened. The distance walking in a confined space such as along dark tunnel is not easy for all participants. A simple explanation of actual distance would be advisable. Others in the group also felt this part of the tour was not necessary- and seemed like a way to kill time.
Trip was excellent. Great guide.
