Travel from Katowice to Auschwitz-Birkenau in a small vehicle or minivan, then join an English-speaking museum guide for the Auschwitz I buildings, permanent exhibition, and Birkenau grounds. Expect a serious six-hour visit, original camp sites, audio equipment, and no food stop, so bring water and wear sturdy shoes.
“We had a somber day but both the guide and driver were fantastic.”
Meet your English-speaking guide at 9:30 PM by the PKO Bank building on Dworcowa 6. Start with one hour of unlimited beer and plain or cherry vodka shots, then move through Katowice bars and clubs with free entry. Guides such as Pablo and Daniel have led friendly nights that can continue until morning.
“It was a great experience, a great evening. The guide was attentive to our wishes and kind. It's a shame they didn't specify when the vodka hour would start; that would allow us to enjoy it more.”
Travel from Krakow to Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa, home of the Black Madonna, then visit the Divine Mercy Sanctuary in Łagiewniki. Your English-speaking driver-guide handles the route and key introductions, with guides such as Tomasz, Dawid, Thomas, or Kamil assigned according to availability. Modest dress is required.
“Thomas was an extremely talented tour guide. We would definitely recommended your company.”
Follow a private English, German, or Polish-speaking guide through Katowice’s Old Town, Market Square, Spodek, and former mining grounds. The 5-hour option adds Nikiszowiec, with public transport tickets included. Expect clear historical context, local tips, and a close look at how coal shaped the city.
“Fantastic- great history, wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend the tour if interested in Katowice history.”
