About this experience
Our 3-hour tour with a licensed guide of Schindler's Factory and the former Jewish ghetto site provides a splendid occasion to discover the Kraków 2WW history. The tour starts with a visit to Schindler's Factory, the most visited museum in Kraków. While visiting the permanent exhibition we shall become comprehensively acquainted with the history of the war-time German occupation of Kraków. The exhibition brings us up to date with the fate of Poles, Germans, and Jews in occupied Kraków – from the outbreak of war to the questionable "liberation" of the city by the Red Army in January 1945. Equipped with the knowledge acquired at the museum, we will set out for the former Ghetto. The locations and historical events discussed in the museum will be shown by our guide in the authentic surroundings in which they took place. Visiting the "Emalia" Factory and the ghetto in one tour allows you to fully grasp and understand the complicated fate of Kraków and its inhabitants during 2WW.

Incredible Hostorical Tour of Krakow/Auschwitz
Tomasz is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about WWII history, Poland, and local culture. We were deeply impacted by the stories he shared, not only about the horrors that occurred at Auschwitz but also regarding the courage, tenacity, and dignity of the Polish people over the centuries. He speaks English beautifully— his tour is a master class on the history of Krakow!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I'm very glad that you found the tour meaningful and that I could share not only the difficult history of 2WW, but also some of the broader story of Poland. It was a pleasure having you with me!

Great Tour!
Joanna was an excellent tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The small group was great as it was just the 4 of us. Schindler Factory is must see sight when in Krakow.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind review! 😊 I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed the small-group experience and that Joanna made the tour so engaging for you. I’ll be sure to pass your lovely feedback on to her. Thank you again for joining us!

Interesting tour if you visit Krakow.
Very interesting, educational and historical tour booked through Get your Guide of over 3 hours. Guide Joanna told the story in a fascinating way and showed a lot. More than worth it.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your positive review!

AMAZING tour to take on the front end of your visit to Krakow.
My son and I did this while visiting Krakow and it was AMAZING! Aga was a fantastic guide and the tour was one of our highlights of our trip. TIP-- do this on the front end of your visit to Krakow, so you can understand the occupation of Krakow by the Nazis while you are in the city. Also, you must watch the movie Schindler's List before you come to Krakow and before taking this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy to hear that the tour was one of the highlights of your trip 😊 Aga will be delighted to read this - I’ll make sure to pass your message on to her. And that’s a great tip about doing the tour at the beginning of your stay - it really does give a deeper context to everything you see later in Kraków. Thank you again for joining us, and I hope you and your son had a wonderful time in Poland!

Trusted Professional Guides!
Super interesting and absolutely worth seeing with a guide—especially with Thomas! The museum focuses on the days leading up to and following the Occupation of Poland. The exhibit is highly interactive, with well-organized artifacts and photographs from the period. Our guide Thomas masterfully brought those days to life through his storytelling—he contextualized the entire era and was truly superb! The museum can be visited independently, but it’s nothing compared to the guided tour with Best Krakow Walks—highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your great review. I’m really glad the visit to the museum made such an impact - it’s an important and emotional part of Krakow’s history, and I’m happy the stories and context helped bring those days to life for you. Thank you again for choosing Best Krakow Walks!

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Krakow.
How much does Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $105 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Krakow usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Krakow is not rushed.
Is Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Krakow, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Krakow can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Krakow and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small Group Schindler Factory and Ghetto Visit with Guide start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Krakow within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Krakow?
+
On Outty we rank every Krakow experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Complete Cracow Bike Tour (small group of maximum 15 people!), Krakow–Zakopane: Cable Car, Chocholow Baths, Cheese & Vodka, Krakow: Zakopane & Hot Springs Tour with Cable Car (Hotel Pickup). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Krakow?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Krakow?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
