Schindler's Factory Guided Tour in Krakow

I'll preface this by saying it is my fault for not investigating the details before hand. The trip was billed as a tour of the Schindler Factory when in reality, it was a tour of the Schindler building which houses a very nice museum. We, however, were more interested in learning more about the man and his daily factory life and eventual heroics.

We had tickets for 2 p.m. on a Friday. I was glad we did because the line for general admission was long. We found our tour group to the right side of the doors as we faced the building. It was not obvious at first but they were holding a clipboard with "English Tours" on it. They gave us our "whispers" and earphones and we went inside the building. They provided a big locker for the group since no backpacks are allowed and she suggested leaving coats as well as it was crowded and warm. Great suggestion. The guide was very knowledgeable and quite easy to understand. The quality of the exhibit is good and gave an excellent representation of the conditions for Jews in Krakow and in the ghetto during this horrible time in history. From start to finish it about 90 minutes. She appreciated receiving our tip at the end of the tour.

The group was too large to see the exhibits. The guide told us about events that happened, but then we did not have time to look at the exhibits. We had to put our backpack into a group locker, so did not have access to it when we needed to leave a few minutes early.

Wonderful couple of hours spent here, met at the museum, guide was fantastic and very informative. Excellent organisation

Very interesting and informative tour. Guide was very good. Only downside to a guided tour is that you don't really get much time to read and look at the exhibits. And there are lots of things to read and look at. I'd recommend booking tickets with skip the line to save waiting. Our ticket included this.
