Visit to the Bochnia salt mine was interesting but not impressive. We went down to a depth of over 200 meters in a mining elevator. Another attraction was a ride in a mining train. Mrs. Beata (the guide) was very nice and she had a lot of knowledge. Interesting multimedia presentations and mining props. The boat ride took about 5 minutes so a relative attraction for 20 PLN. If I can suggest a trip for a pair of adults, it will be the basic option without a boat "crossing". Our visit to the Wieliczka mine left much better impressions and memories.

First off, I didn't realize there were 2 salt mines in Krakow. When I booked, I thought I booked the Wieliczka Salt Mine. I have to say I was slightly disappointed, but it was my error. This tour was more educational and felt like a school trip, not that that's a bad thing, it just wasn't what I wanted. The tour lasts 3 hours and it has a lot of steps, so wear appropriate shoes. The boat guide was very funny, I kept thinking it was going to capsize, but he assured me it wouldn't. There is a cafeteria and toilets when you get a break, the food I have to say was delicious as we were hungry from walking. All in all, a good day, I just wanted to see more sculptures.

An incredible place. Natural, the feeling of being there is incredible. This mine is one of the oldest, and I'm glad they've preserved its natural interior. The less than four hours (about 3.5 hours of sightseeing) flew by so quickly that I didn't even know when. Our guide, Mr. Marek, had incredible knowledge and passion. We're learning history all over again – thank you, Mr. Marek. I highly recommend it.

My favourite event we did during our trip to Krakow. The staff are dressed in traditional miner's uniforms, the digital displays are great but the mine itself is amazing. From the minute you step into the miner's lift and descend into the shaft you just feel it's going to be great, the train ride and the boat ride are a real highlight but the history and what was created down there is so beautiful. A must do place to visit.

Great... Fantastic Museum and Mine.. The program is 4 hours so be prepared...

Very interesting tour through the mine, we had a great time and learned a lot of interesting details and historical trivia. We were surprised at how well the media information was integrated in the mine, and we found the experience to be very authentic. We specifically chose this mine tour instead of touring the other large mine near Krakow to get a more authentic experience, and we are so happy with our choice. The headphone audio guide worked well for us, since we didn't understand the Polish language of the person conducting the tour.

(Posted because 10 days no answer on e-mail) ! We are very unhappy that there was a mandatory break/lunch in the mine. It was placed right towards the end of the tour which means, that after the 40minutes break, we were being brought up to the surface again. We believe that the mandatory break was added only in order to force people to purchase food from the cantine inside the mine, which was some of the baddest tasting and most exspensive food that I have ever bought. 10zl for 100g of food meant we would have to pay more than 90zl just to get a little food and a drink. Also the souvenir shop inside the mine further indicates, that the 40min mandatory break was added only to force the consumer to make purchases inside the mine, where you are basically "trapped" untill the 40min have passed, because there was also a souvenir shop when we came out of the mine. Besides that, we were a fairly big group and there were constantly issues with the audio. I believe that sensors were supposed to make the audio device start each time you arrive at a special place, but because we were such a big group, it sometimes did not register correctly. We are also unhappy that there was constantly waiting time for several minutes where we were just stranding and waiting for other groups. Overall we are not satisfied that this fairly exspensive tour has done the price justice. We are also unhappy that the slide was not working so we had to walk many steps on foot

An absolutely incredible experience and one of the real highlights of our trip. The Wieliczka Salt Mine completely exceeded expectations. It’s vast, beautifully lit and full of fascinating history. The scale of it is hard to take in until you’re actually down there, walking through the tunnels and chambers carved entirely from salt. The guided tour was excellent, with just the right mix of facts, humour and storytelling. The underground chapels and sculptures are astonishing, and it’s amazing to think they were all hand carved by miners. Every turn reveals something unexpected, from chandeliers made of salt crystals to huge caverns that feel almost otherworldly. It’s well organised, easy to reach from Krakow, and surprisingly comfortable even deep underground. I’d recommend it to anyone. It’s one of those rare places that truly lives up to the hype.

A must when visiting Krakow. We booked through Krakow Direct and were picked up/dropped off at our hotel for the tour. Short walk across road to the Salt Mines where Justine, our tour guide was superb and witty. There are lots and lots and lots of steps to go down. Thankfully you don't have to walk back up! Such a marvel of human achievement from centuries ago. The sheer size of this place is mind blowing. To think tourists only get to see less than 2% of it is difficult to comprehend. You will need comfortable shoes and it can get warm with all the walking. The chapels are breathtaking and the sculptures are fantastic. Truly worth a visit and at several points along the tour you can purchase memorabilia which is really well priced which is unusual for a tourist attraction. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed!

My wife and I visited the salt mine in early October. It is an awe-inspiring place. We would highly recommend a visit. The history is fascinating and the cathedral is spectacular. Our guide, Natalie, was excellent. She was positive, engaging, insightful, and energetic. We had an amazing and memorable time. The tour is quite long (2+ hours) and you do walk over 3 km, descending down through the mine over 100 meters by a mix of ramps and stairs. Good news, you take an elevator back up.

Impressive mines Yes the mines are absolutely incredible when you consider the engineering and work it took to carve out all those passageways and huge underground halls. Then there's the intricate statues sculpted out of the salt which are incredible. There are also natural wonders such as the underground lakes. You can easily spend up to a day there if the guides would only allow you - but with the crowds they want to move people along. You NEED the guides otherwise you'd get lost in the labyrinth. You are provided with headphones so you can always hear what they're saying. We had Nicholas - he was a lovely guy, but .... could talk less, if I'm honest. At one stage he offered us the option to talk more or talk less. I would have opted for less, but people were too nice/polite and didn't want to hurt his feelings so opted for more. So after a lot of his monotone warbling (sorry Nicholas) I just removed the headphones and took in the beauty of the place for myself. Well worth seeing though

Very interesting and impressive tour. Multiple huge caverns made for a rather different underground experience to all the caves I've previously been in. We even had a nice meal in the underground restaurant before heading back to the surface.

I really enjoyed the tour, good information. Amazing views (inside 😄), I can't describe it and the pictures don't do it any justice. The mine is absolutely amazing, the size, the beauty, the effort and detail on the handcrafted figures, everything really. Some of the rooms you enter are just jaw dropping, yout mind just goes to wonder how did someone build this. The temperature is really nice inside, 14-17c at all times, I was happy in a t-shirt but some people had light jackets on. There are loads of gift shops at the exit and they sell everything that the underground ones do, so unless you want to carry bags throughout the tour, buy your gifts at the exit. I tried the restaurant before the return to the surface and it was great. Good food and good quantity. I will be returning in the future. For management, I just have two suggestions...One, please try to get some radio relays in the tunnels as the signal was very bad of you were in the back of the tour group. Two, bigger gaps between tours would be great, just to give more time to see some of the areas in more detail. But overall amazing.

While the salt mine is interesting to visit and quite impressive with its man-made chambers, corridors and chapels, the overall experience is a 'hit and miss' at best. As you can only visit on an organised tour, a lot depends on the guide you'll get. We went on a pre-booked English-language tour (they start every 30 min) and were very unlucky with our guide. He spoke a very basic, heavily accented, broken English, which was hard to follow and at times bordering on comical. His commentary was devoid of substance and repetitive, mostly stating the obvious. We didn't learn anything interesting about the mine, its history or its current use. Most of the 'installations' were dated and very kitchy. The tour was rushed, with large groups of tourists constantly encroaching on each other's space. In summary: was it interesting? Yes. Was it worth the effort and money? Not so sure.

Was wonderful for my seven year old child and the cousin. Clean, safe, with very helpful and pleasant staff. Big enough to entertain for the day but small enough to not be overwhelming. My daughter is already talking about going back.

A perfect amusement park for smaller kids, many rails they could go to and almost everything is included in the price.

Rabkoland is a nice amusement park, but it’s definitely smaller compared to Familypark in Austria. It’s really best suited for kids up to about 10 years old – the attractions are tailored more for younger children. The food was a pleasant surprise: lots of options, tasty, and noticeably cheaper than what we’re used to in Familypark. We went there in the morning and managed to try almost all the rides without much waiting. After lunch, though, it got much busier and the queues grew to about 15–20 minutes per attraction. Overall, it’s a fun and affordable day trip if you have smaller kids, but older children might find it less exciting.

This is absolutely perfect place for kids to spent a day. It's worth the money you pay. So many beautiful and funny attractions, all surrounded by flowers and trees. From the first step even me I felt like in fairy tale. We were in august and queues haven't been long at all. I like that park is especially for the little ones, from 2 to 10 years best I would say. Parents can enjoy many attraction with kids which is definitely plus. Big choice of tasty food for affordable prices as well. Fan for all day. Definitely recommend to visit.

Beautiful park to visit, plenty of rides for the whole family.

Great theme park...especially for little ones There is plenty to do for the whole day. We did pretty much do all the rides, visited soft play and outside play ground. Lunch was outside in a quick food cafe where you can choose your door and pay per 100g. It was very tasty and good choice for the whole family. Fun day.

It was absolutely amazing the kids loved it. It is for smaller kids teens won't have that much fun i would prefer Energylandia for them. There are also people dressed into a croc, a ladybug and a clown. Really amazing experience

We visited Schindlers factory on rhe first day of our trip to Krakow. We had been in the city about 10 years ago and missed it then so wanted to make sure we got there this time. Firstly this is less a tour of Oskar Schindler's factory anf more a WW2 museum that just happens to be in the same building that Oskar Schindler happened to use. There isnt a lot about Schindler and his workers. Most of it is about the war in Krakow and Poland. Very informative but something you need to know if you are specifically going to see the factory from the film. If you are going with that in mind you may be disappointed. But if you want to learn about WW2 in Krakow then this will be the place for you. Another tip. Book in advance and get a skip the queue ticket. We didnt and when we joined the queue it didnt seem too long maybe 100 people in front of us. It took over 2 hours to get in. Every ten or fifteen minutes around 10 people would get in. Meanwhile dozens got in via skip the queue in the same time. So dont queue. Book a skip the queue tour. But that said we enjoyed the visit and would highly recommend it.

An excellent museum that covers the entire lived history of the Jews in Krakow during the Nazi regime, the emergence of Oskar Schindler and his amazing role in saving thousands of them. Excellent displays, wonderful recreations and maps and documents. Very poignant. Very good.

A must visit. Get here early, as there was a queue at opening. The permanent exhibition is great, and you go around the actual factory. If you remember the film, you'll see the iconic entrance/ staircase. Ignore the website about ticket availability and the sign on the door. Worth the queue time.

A must see , made better by watching the fantastic Schindler's List to get an additional appreciate of events. Tour guide (via Get Your Guide) was informative and knowledgeable. Earphones provided with this program and skip the queue also, as your booked in at a certain Time

Really interesting museum with lots of information and exhibits. We queued on the day, morning, to get entry. They were letting people in 10 at a time. Took us about 30 mins to get in - the queue was much bigger in the afternoon. The biggest downside to the museum is the sheer amount of tours going through it. Some of the corridors are too narrow for 20 ppl+ groups to just stand around and listen to a guide. If you get caught behind one group it’s a nightmare to get past. Maybe consider limiting the amount of group tours passing through.

Very atmospheric and well thought out. Seeing the old factory turned into a museum and the history within is truly like time travel. Highly recommend getting tickets and a reservation in advanced; and if you do, do not wait outside with the others, simply walk in within your scheduled tour time. My only gripe with the experience is the annoying tour groups you have to squeeze through in the exhibit. Not only can they block your way, but the actual museum does not make a profit from these people! Why the museum has not address this is unknown but the staff there definitely share the sentiment that something should be done about these groups.

Booked tickets via their website before we travelled to Krakow. You can risk queuing but it's nice to have piece of mind that to are assured a slot. We booked an English speaking tour of the factory. The tour/factory is a deep dive into Krakow's role in WW2, not just about Oscar Schindler. It's a fantastic, immersive museum with well-thought out exhibits. It takes you on a journey through the war years. Absolutely recommend the museum. The tour was great for us, but if you want to spend time reading all the exhibits then do it without a guide.

This is a very pretty area of the city and not too far to walk from the Old City. It has a tragic history and there are lots of monuments and information boards detailing the events of the 1940's and later that caused the Jewish population to plummet so dramatically. I walked around one evening to take some photos and it was quiet and felt safe although it is more run down and has graffiti and litter that you don't see in the Old City. Lots of nice cafes too!

We took a golf buggy tour around Kazimierz and the Getto with Romeo and his wife who were excellent guides taking us to some very interesting places and telling us all about the history including all about King Kazimierz and Ester, St Stanislaus and visiting his well ,the war and showing us part of the original getto wall and schindler's factory to name just a few. This area of Krakow is a must visit with so much history and its also a very lively area with no end of places to eat and drink.

I would highly recommend a walking tour to know more about Jewish history in Krakow. It's quite interesting!

St. Mary’s Basilica is absolutely stunning — the interior took my breath away. The colours, detail, and craftsmanship are incredible, and photos really don’t do it justice. It’s also great to see such a beautiful landmark remain accessible and affordable for everyone. Unlike many tourist sites, it doesn’t feel over-commercialised or like it’s trying to monetise a religious space — it’s handled with real respect and care. Whether you’re exploring Kraków for a day or a week, this is a must-visit spot. The surrounding square and old town atmosphere make the whole experience even more special. Highly recommend!

Marvelous cathedral, in the heart of the city center. With two characteristic towers, a Beautiful blue ceiling inside, and the astonishing golden wood panels at the altar. Don't miss the opening ceremony, be prepared at 11h30.

The St. Mary’s Basilica is absolutely beautiful. The architecture and interior details are stunning. There’s usually a line to get in, so plan ahead. Keep in mind that visitors aren’t allowed during mass, but outside those times, the experience is amazing and peaceful.

Wonderful experience. The Basilica is very interesting, nice and rich. Full of emotions. You have to wait a bit sometimes but it worths a visit. Every hour there's a surprise playing music...

Saint Mary’s Basilica rises over Kraków’s square like a Gothic prayer cast in brick. Rebuilt by the townspeople after the 1241 invasion, it became the city’s own gift to itself. Its twin towers—one tall and crowned with the Hejnał trumpeter, the other sturdy and quiet—frame a church shaped by generations of architects and guilds. Inside, blue star vaulted ceilings lead to Veit Stoss’s luminous fifteenth century altarpiece, a masterpiece of carved devotion. The shrine of Our Lady glows with votive offerings, and the hourly Hejnał, cut short in memory of a fallen watchman, ties history and reverence into a single breath.

Well, it's impressing but you're not getting that much of a difference in view by paying for the ticket. I recommend going through the free entrance and seeing if it's good enough for you before deciding to buy an actual ticket. By the way, you can easily buy tickets in the building opposite the side entrance.

A beautiful church in the heart of the old town, we visited Kate Sunday afternoon to escape the snow and cold and spent an hour in reflection. A beautifully designed interior with some stunning windows.

Picturesque town square, beautiful pictures from all angles. The place really becomes lively at night. Dont miss the square at "blue hour," for us visiting in late september this was 7pm. Abundance of gift shops in the center. Underground Museum is worth a visit. One could spend days just stopping into resturaunts and stores.

Great atmosphere here. I felt very safe here. Always something going on. One night a group of about 100, 16 year olds, gathered and had a dance. Not one sign of trouble. Great atmosphere with the restaurants and shops

Absolutely stunning square with so much history and charm! The atmosphere is vibrant, surrounded by beautiful buildings, cafes, and street performers. A perfect spot to sit, relax, and soak in the city’s energy.

Crakow - the most beatiful city in Poland and Europe. It is soaked in history and its vibrant streets encourage to sightsee and explore the town. I trully recommend visiting it at least for 4- 5 days as ot has a lotto offer with Sukiennice, Main Market and Mariacki Church. Polish cuisine is deliscious and ypu can try many different food there.

I have being to so many cities main squares in Europe and this one is the most beautiful with great restaurants for food and drinks!!! I just truly love Poland so much and recommend everyone to go and visit.

Beautiful central square in Krakow! Huge square, there us a small market in the main building where you can buy souvenirs and also the traditional amber stone, as bracelet or charm, very pretty. You can visit St Mary's basilica and go up to the tower, extraordinary views from Krakow, totally worth the circa 300 steps to get to the top! Lovely restaurants around the square, and not that much expensive compared to others further away from the centre. You can also rent a charming charriot and go around central krakow, day or night

Beautiful old town, we arrived the evening before independence day for Poland, on the day it was very busy, high police presence, but no trouble. The town is full of Beautiful buildings, cafes, bars and restaurants. A restaurant for all budgets. The foot fall fell off, Wednesday/Thursday and grew again on the Friday. Due to the time of year, the increase of visitors didn't appear to have a negative effect on restaurants for us, but might at a different time of year. Poland is so worth a visit. We used Bolts, which is a kind of taxi service, which was Cheap and very quick ( download the app) to use as our chosen way of getting around when we went further a field.

Wawel Royal Castle is a beautiful trip that is definitely worth the visit! The architecture is impressive and full of history, offering an enriching cultural experience. Furthermore, its location provides a beautiful view of the river Vistula, perfect for photos and relaxation. To complete the visit, make sure to see the famous Wawel Dragon statue, which, to everyone's delight, breathes fire every 10 minutes! It's a fun detail that appeals to all ages. The attraction is very well maintained, and the whole complex is a must-see tourist spot in Poland.

Visiting the Wawel Royal Castle–State Art Collection is an unforgettable experience that beautifully blends art, architecture, and history. Perched above the Vistula River, the castle offers breathtaking views of Kraków and an atmosphere that feels almost timeless. Every corner of the complex tells a story — from the grand royal chambers to the intricate tapestries and stunning Renaissance courtyards. The State Art Collection is incredibly well curated, showcasing exquisite works that highlight Poland’s royal heritage and artistic legacy. The Crown Treasury and Armoury, in particular, are a must-see for anyone interested in medieval craftsmanship and regal splendor. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, eager to share insights and answer questions, making the experience even more enriching. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and there’s plenty of space to wander, reflect, and take in the history that surrounds you. Whether you’re an art lover, a history enthusiast, or simply a traveler in search of beauty and culture, Wawel Castle is an absolute gem — a true symbol of Poland’s enduring spirit and elegance.

The Wawel Royal Castle Gardens in Kraków are a beautifully restored part of Poland’s most iconic historic site. Nestled on Wawel Hill, the gardens offer a serene escape from the city, with meticulously arranged flower beds, manicured lawns, and stunning views over the Vistula River. They blend Renaissance design with natural charm, evoking the elegance of royal life while maintaining a peaceful, contemplative atmosphere. The State Art Collection housed within Wawel Castle is equally impressive. It features masterpieces of European art, exquisite tapestries from the 16th century, royal portraits, and priceless artifacts from Poland’s regal past. Highlights include the famous Flemish tapestries commissioned by King Sigismund II Augustus and an exceptional collection of Renaissance and Baroque art. Together, the gardens and the art collection make Wawel not only a symbol of Polish heritage but also a living museum of art, architecture, and nature — a must-see for any visitor to Kraków!

This is a very impressive castle. We booked a tour so that we could learn a lot, but there is so much to see that the tour felt kind of fast. Book based on your personal preference - if you wish to linger maybe go with an audio guide. It’s very interesting and a wonderful place to visit.

A must do if you're visiting Kraków. The exterior grounds themselves are free to roam as you please, you will only need to pay to access the exhibitions inside the interior rooms of the castle. I will advise you that the tickets for the cathedral and rest of the castle attractions are sold in separate ticket booths. These tickets booths are clearly signposted however so you should have no issue in getting around. Also you must buy individual tickets for each of the attractions that you wish to visit during your time at the castle. All in all, it's a great day out for all the family and you can spend several hours here getting to see all of the great exhibits that are on display. There are also ample facilities for food, storing bags and toilets (which you can use your entrance ticket to access for free).

This is by far the most impressive castle I saw in Poland and it's huge. Divided by multiple sections, I strongly encourage you visit the jewels and weapons section and the 2nd floor, but if you hace time, everything is worth checking! Absolutely beautiful works of art renovated perfectly or kept pristine, an audioguide is strongly recommended so you can understand more the context behind some of the things. The dragon's den I considered it to be Meh, only visit it at the end upon exit if you want, but truth be told you won't waste much if you skip it. Gardens are beautiful albeit small. You'll need to leave your luggage upon visiting, but it's free storage so more than encouraged. A must see if you visit Kraków

Wawel Castle is without doubt one of the most impressive and historically important sites in Kraków, and a symbol of Polish heritage. Perched on Wawel Hill above the Vistula River, it combines beautiful Renaissance courtyards, Gothic towers, and breathtaking views over the city. Walking through the royal chambers, the armory, and the treasury, you get a real sense of the centuries of power and culture that shaped Poland. The nearby Wawel Cathedral, with its chapels and royal tombs, is equally remarkable and deeply moving, as it is the final resting place of Polish kings, queens, and national heroes. Even if you don’t go inside, the grounds are worth exploring for the atmosphere and panoramic views. This is a place where history, art, and architecture come together in a truly unique way. Absolutely essential on any visit to Kraków.

I didn’t go inside the buildings; we only walked around the open area. Honestly, the architecture isn’t much different from what you find in other classic European cities, but still, I think it’s one of those places you need to visit at least once. It gives you the feeling of truly experiencing the city, even if it’s not something completely unique.

It was a perfect day to see the many wonderful sites at Wawel fortress & cathedral. Access to all the grounds was free, there were some areas that had paid tours you could take. Absolutely lovely, thank you to the wonderful Polish people for allowing their guests to see their beautiful landmarks.

Wawel Cathedral is truly magnificent – a place where history and architecture meet in breathtaking harmony. The bells are especially impressive, resonating with a deep, solemn beauty that fills the entire space. Visitors should be mindful, however, that some stairways are quite steep and certain passageways can be narrow. Despite this, the experience is unforgettable, offering a remarkable glimpse into centuries of heritage and craftsmanship.

The beautiful and architecturally impressive Wawel Cathedral is a sight to behold. The stunning golden globe that adorns the roof is surrounded by detailed and ornate elements that collectively make up this stunning cathedral.

Stepping into Wawel Cathedral feels like crossing a threshold where time softens its grip. The air carries that unmistakable mix of incense, candle wax, and centuries of whispered prayers, as if the walls themselves still exhale the devotion of those who came before. Light falls gently through the high windows, illuminating gilded chapels, velvet draped altars, and the resting places of saints, bishops, and kings. The great bell above, massive and solemn, seems carved out of history itself. It is easy to imagine it thundering across Krakow, calling the faithful, announcing triumphs and tragedies, marking the passage of a nation. Inside the cathedral, the silver sarcophagi glimmer like frozen waves, each one guarding a life that shaped Poland’s story. The shrine of Saint John Paul II radiates a quiet warmth, a reminder of a shepherd who rose from these very stones to guide the world. Every corner feels purposeful. The carved choir stalls, the tapestries telling ancient tales, and the golden dome gleaming softly over the chapels all draw the mind toward the sacred. Candles burn steadily, their flames small but insistent, mirroring the devotion of those who come here seeking strength or peace. You feel the weight of prayers layered one upon another, like soft footsteps echoing across centuries. Wawel Cathedral is more than a monument. It is a living sanctuary where faith and history intertwine. Saints share space with monarchs, and the spiritual sits comfortably beside the political, each shaping the identity of this land. Visiting it is a reminder that some places are built not just of stone, but of memory, longing, and the human desire to reach for something higher. A quiet moment here lingers long after you leave, like the fading scent of incense on a winter coat, urging reflection and steadying the heart for the journey ahead.

Exceptional experience The outside architecture is great as well as the inside You can go to the top to see the royal Sigismund bell, the largest of the five bells of the cathedral. The crypts are very interesting as well and very detailed. I suggest you book the tickets in advance since it gets crowded enough

Chill place great for excercise, don't know if the wish come true or not but fun place for climbing stairs also it's paid so remember to visit it all cuz I don't thinkn you will this again in life(lyf) Billy eilish❤️‍🩹

​Chochołowskie Termy is an absolutely brilliant destination for relaxation and fun. This sprawling thermal bath complex offers a huge variety of experiences for everyone, from families to couples. ​The highlight is the sheer number of pools—both indoor and outdoor—with warm, therapeutic thermal waters. Floating in the heated outdoor pools, surrounded by the stunning mountain scenery, is pure bliss. Whether you seek the tranquility of the adults-only Saunarium or the excitement of the waterslides, the facilities are top-notch and beautifully maintained. It's a truly rejuvenating and highly recommended experience

We were family of five and we had amazing time together. Almost 7 hours of extreme, swimming, relaxing and joy! Nice restaurant with reasonable prices. Very clean & well organized place! Strongly recommended! You can enjoy sauna & salt room for free!

A must visit if you are in the area, I don’t tend to go to spas but this was an unforgettable experience. Everything was so clean, well kept and organised, lockers easy to use, and also liked that you could pay with your wristband so could get drinks in the outdoor thermal baths!! So many different pools to choose from too. I felt like a brand new person after being in the baths and could’ve spend all day here easily!

Even though we went during a rain storm and in -1°C, the outdoor pools were fantastic. Also the indoor pools and jacuzzi were great. The slides are a must for kids and big kids like me! I'd also highly recommend the spa area.

This was one of our main reasons for visiting Zakopane and we were very glad we did. Lovely warm water and lots of different areas to explore. The signage could be a bit better for finding the pool as even Polish speakers were getting lost.

We spent two days there, and I think I would have stayed longer. I recommend getting the extra sauna package on weekends. We really enjoyed the group sauna service—it's like a show. There's a good selection of food—a home-style bistro or an à la carte restaurant.

We loved the Spa, it exceeded our expectations, the Saunas are great, the demonstrations were done with real enthusiasm. We spent the whole day and wish we could have stayed longer it was fantastic value for money.

The overall atmosphere of the thermal park is very calm, mainly due to a reasonable number of visitors. The area is well-maintained and clean, with pleasing water temperatures. The artificial waves truly resemble those you remember from summer holidays, also the view directly to the ski resort from the pool is certainly unique. All this is offered at comparatively fair pricing. Fully recommend!

All the pools and outdoor arenas were ok, but I would not recommend staying in any of the apartments!!! Cost a fortune but it's an absolute joke... First of all all windows facing the pool are open and you're unable to close them. It's super loud during the day and also super hot. You have Aircon in the room but that's not going to make any difference if you can't close the window!!! We were unable to sleep at night at all as it was boiling hot. The shower was also a joke - shows that the main temperature is 38 and you can change it to colder or hotter but all that was coming out was a BOILING HOT WATER!!!! I've burned my scalp and was unable to take a proper shower due to it. When we've reported the above issues to the staff on the reception they've just smiled and said nothing can be done as it's weekend and they would have to call someone in!!!! No apologies, nothing. Shame as room itself was very nice and modern. Also what's really strange you're unable to use pool facilities on the day you're checking out... Weird.

I will relate to old termal pools - that is outside. 1) Please, let people pay by card - it's 21 century and you have different visitors from different countries - contactless payment - it's normality. 2) Please - improve your system with keys: When we pay at cash desk - you may give us key for entrance gate and for fitting room - that are 2 in 1- with chip for example. And when we will go out - we will leave it at gate. Now - the system that visitor should pay 9euro at cash desk for entrance in cash, then pay 2 euro for shelf at fitting room also in cash- where one lady cleaning floor and giving keys - not a good idea. I had to wait for her, meanwhile she was somewhere else. Many people don't have cash with themselves, or have another currency then euro. What's the reason of such service anyway?

There are very nice ski slopes ranging from blue to red in difficulty. There are seated lifts in a beautiful setting. It wasn't too busy and there is a good range of food and drinks.

We were at the thermal pool. Very nice place, new. Nice to spend half day worth children

Nice theramal/aquapark for families. Indoor and outdoor pools with atractions, tobogans and snack bars.

Extremely Disappointed – Not What It Used to Be I used to love this thermal place — it was cozy, welcoming, and run by kind people like Lucka, Barbara, and Livia. Sadly, those days are gone. Now, you pay €34 for entry and another €3 for parking, only to discover there’s not even a single cold water pool available. But the biggest disappointment was the behavior of one of the staff members at the food stall where I ordered a langoš. The woman taking my order was shockingly rude. When I spoke English, she nearly shouted at me, insisting I speak Polish — as if I was showing off. I calmly explained I don’t speak Slovak, but she continued to raise her voice, saying I should “stick to Polish.” Her tone and attitude were completely uncalled for. It was not about the language — it was about basic respect. The girl working beside her gave me an apologetic look but said nothing — probably too intimidated by her colleague, whose name might have been Michaela. This kind of behavior is unacceptable in a service-oriented place. Management seriously needs to reconsider who they hire. Someone with such an aggressive attitude should not be the face of a food stand, especially one selling something as beloved as langoš. This was our last visit here. We’ll be going to Chochołowskie instead — it’s better equipped, better maintained, and, most importantly, staffed by people who know how to treat visitors with kindness and respect.

A bit hard to climb up there as the surface is quite slippery.

Super !

Mighty as always;) I was with 2 foreigners and it was very interesting for them. Not that I want to brag... but I know around since I was a little kid. All Ojców area is great!

What makes this place even more worth being visited, is the truly scenic road leading to it, through a picturesque village where houses stand next to huge rocks reaching a dozen meters. What I do not like are costs - everywhere. For parking, toilet. It is rather demotivating.

Nice views :)

Nice place.

Must see :)

I was here to walk the trail. This church was the starting point of my walk. I spent about 3 hours to finish the whole circle. There are many chapels and other monuments along the trail. Very nice and quiet walk all along the way. The scenery along the route is very nice. The only issue I found is that English information is scarce. I barely found any information I can read about along the trail. If you do not speak Polish, you may need t o read about the trail and its history online in advance to have a better understanding.

Beautiful place with some fantastic views. 1. Try to visit when there is not a mass. 2. You can park along street all the way up to the top of Hill. 3. They have a main information window to the right of main entrance if you come up and enter from the bottom of the hill with statues above wall. 4. They also have tours at the information booth. 5. Remember to silence cell phone. 6. Bathroom is located directly behind (Rear entrance) in separate building in court yard. From rear entrance look to the right corner of courtyard you will see WC sign. Cost is 4 ZL cash and no credit card.

It’s very nice: the place has a nice atmosphere, and it’s nice for walks aswel!

Rooms are not clean, The restaurant is not clean too and they speak just polish, I thought i will have bread with the meals but when I asked after buying my meal, they asked me to wait again on the line for 20 minutes to buy it, Rests can stay on the table for 2 hours

This chapel is an important stop for pilgrims to visit places important from the context of Pope John Paul II's life. On a hill, the view from the church lets you see miles into the beautiful landscape. The church built centuries ago is imposing and the frescos on the ceilings and walls are artistically done. There are showcases of the former Pope's visits and most of the content printed is in Polish. The confession boxes are wooden and interestingly crafted for privacy. The church premises are undergoing renovation and wheelchair and stroller accessibility can be better.

Very beautiful area , village and sanctuary

Absolutely stunning place! Kalwaria Zebrzydowska park is a Mannerist architectural and park landscape complex plus a pilgrimage park, built in the 17th century as the Counter Reformation in the late 16th century led to prosperity in the creation of calvaries in Catholic Europe. The park was added in 1999 to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. The site is also one of Poland's official national Historic Monuments (Pomnik historii) and tracked by the National Heritage Board of Poland. This place is just mesmerising and you can fell something divine in the air, it’s truly a special place. They have also a some gastronomy there so you’ll never get hungry hah. P.S. Read about a history and fix your purpose before you go there!

Challenging but super rewarding hike when you get to the peak. Beautiful views.

It's a great spot for amateur climbers(myself), and u can enjoy it with ur fam or gf, nice cozy and a romantic place

Beautiful place for family trip. Definitely not over the weekend as can be too crowded. Then difficult to appreciate nature around with all the senses..

Amazing 360`C breathtaking views from "Diablak Mount" at Babia Góra - 1752m above sea level.. The tallest peak in Western Beskids of Poland and the 2nd tallest after "Śnieżka".

Beautiful scenery, lovely nature.

Climb was harder to Sokolica, but to next peaks it went pretty good. Loved it. Beautiful wiew. Wether changes fast, so prepare some warmer and rainproof clothes, even if you think there will be sunny and hot. It took little bit less than 3h to Babia Gòra for totally unprepared people.

Loved hiking in Babia Gora! The routes are difficult, but nothing insurmountable. There is an entrance fee of 5zl, but the routes are well taken care of. There is one cabin half way up where you can have a meal and use the restroom. There are also a couple of rooms/beds to stay over for the night, but they have to be booked in advance. You can pay with debit/credit cards. Not everyone here speaks English, so look up the information about the trails on internet just in case.

What is there not to like about this place, the home of our greatest ever Pope, absolutely fantastic museum about his life, and especially about his childhood... Prices to get in our rediculously cheap and it's all translated for you via a translator machine you wear around your neck.... To top it off the square it's located in is full of wonderful places to eat once you have finished your visit

Beautifully done museum that honors the incredible life of Pope John Paul II. Walking through his family home is both moving and humbling. A must-visit if you’re in Wadowice—he truly was an amazing man

one of my fav museums ever, many inspiring stories & items of pope john paul II. it was much bigger than i thought, and it was organised really well. location was accessible from the train station as well. highly recommend the english audio guide, it was very informative! pray for us st john paul II ! ❤️

What a delightful house, beautiful museum where you can still feel the spirit of St John Paul. I would love to visit again

I came late to the door so was the last to go round the muzeum. It was a shame since they had closed down the multimedia elements of the museum. Exhibits give a good flavour of JPII his life, times and achievements.

Visiting the hometown and the home of St John Paul II was a dream come true as Catholics. My husband and I learned so much about the late pope’s life which was built around Wadowice and enriched by the loving and faithful family he had. The museum was nicely organized. I could have given 5 stars if only we did not encounter some bombastic staff inside especially considering that they are supposedly helping visitors in a place where a great pope and now saint once lived.

Very big and interesting. Such a beautiful museum. They gave us headphones and a small radio so we could understand more about the Pope's life and childhood. As in prices very cheap and worth visiting.

Incredible castle ruins on top of a hill, with panoramic views of the surrounding forests! I came here for the Percival concert (Witcher) and it was an amazing medieval ambience.

Amazing medieval castle with lots of history and additional attractions. Great place to visit for families with children. Plenty of places to eat and park. Highly recommended.

Real gem. The castle is extraordinary and really recommend to visit. If you want to go inside - be advised - it has steep stairs and one steep ladder to one of the towers. Also, nice walk around outside the castle.

The 16th century fortress in Jura region. On the holiday during summer season, the medieval knights show is held. That was good for kids.

When you first set sight on the castle, you'll immediately be impressed. You'll want to keep looking at it because it's just that beautiful. Then your attention is rerouted by the endless amount of people in yellow vests trying to get you to park in their parking lots. Some even wave glowsticks around. I can't blame the locals for wanting to earn a quick buck off tourists, but it was certainly a bit strange. Some of them even opened up their backyards for parking. We eventually entered a parking lot where we had to pay 5 EUR or 20 PLN, but I can imagine that the price varies per lot. We got out and headed towards the castle, but along the route there was a guy in an ice cream van saying something to us. Now, I don't speak Polish, but my limited knowledge of Czech has allowed me to understand a decent amount of what people are saying. This time, however, he said something that in Czech would translate to pigs, so I can imagine his confusion when I pulled a very confused face after his little sales talk. Anyways, we went further along the path before we were bombarded with stalls on either side of the road. Again, I can't blame locals for trying to earn some money, but I do have to wonder why 1 medieval castle should need around 5 ice cream vans, several stalls selling the same plushies and toys and multiple stalls selling food and drinks. One of them even sold toy machine guns, which is quite odd when you're visiting a medieval castle, where the best gun you were gonna get would only fire a single shot and most likely miss the target, if not blow up into your face. Anyways, we finally got to the ticket office, where there was a small queue but nothing too bad. We went up into the castle area and this was absolutely beautiful. The castle itself had a few shops, but the main event was ofcourse the castle itself. The route was clearly indicated, and took you along almost every inch of the castle. The stairs up to the tower were a bit crowded, but nothing you can really do about that. There were a few little rooms that showcased stuff, including a room dedicated to the Witcher with a very nice replica of his silver sword, if I'm correct in that. In another room there was a canon from the 1700's, which seemed to me to be able to still fire, but I wouldn't recommend firing such an old weapon, lest it blow up in your face. The castle itself is located on a rocky area, which the castle accentuates brilliantly. Even though the castle isn't that large, it seems like it is due to the terrain. Some parts of the castle were lost unfortunately, I would have liked to see a restored version of this castle, I reckon it would have been beautiful if done right. Right now, you can see they "restored" certain small areas with bricks, which I don't think is very historically accurate but I could be wrong in that. A lot of the stairs in the castle have been replaced with concrete or metal ones, which is fair seeing the horrible state of the one staircase they kept in place. When leaving the main castle, the larger area still surrounded by walls is also something you should look at. It features a beautiful rock formation and an old torture chamber. I would take the things on display there with a grain of salt though, seeing there's an iron maiden in this room which they tried to pass off as historically accurate, even though it was only invented in the victorian age, much later than the medieval era. Still, I'm no expert in medieval torture methods so maybe the rest all checks out. When we eventually left the castle, the queue for tickets was way longer. It seemed we had evaded the busy hours, fortunately. Also, before I forget, dogs are allowed to enter the castle, so bring them along if you want. In conclusion, I would definitely recommend you to visit this wonderful place, but it definitely gets one fewer star because of the exceptionally touristy area centered around it.

I was expecting little because it all looks in ruins (in pictures) but once you are there physically you'll be amazed. Also, The Witcher (Netflix) filmed here.

Beautiful place. Felt like I walked into history with the festival vibes around.

Amazing theme park chock full of incredible roller coasters, Zadra being immense - ride it in the dark which elevates it to an entirely new level. Great value for money , ample car parking, tge park was fresh and clean. A great experience

I visited Energylandia because I was curious about the largest amusement park located near Slovakia. And I must say that I was satisfied. And that was right from the moment I parked my car, which I parked in a huge parking lot located right next to the amusement park. I must note that even though the ticket price is not the lowest, parking is paid separately (7 €/day). The amusement park premises are beautiful, decorated, pleasant movie music plays everywhere and you feel like you are in a fairy tale. There are many shops, restaurants and vending machines. Given that Energylandia has chosen a policy in the style of "buy a full-day ticket and all attractions are included in the price", it is logical that there are queues for each attraction - from 10 to 60 minutes (depending on what day / period you visit Energylandia). One ride lasts about 30 to 90 seconds. However, many of them are worth waiting for, as they offer maximum experience and adrenaline (e.g. speed of 144 km/h or overload up to 4G). You can watch the waiting time on several screens in the park or you can download their mobile application. A practical service is renting boxes to put things away (because you can't wear a cap/glasses/bag, etc. while riding). All you need to do is buy a bracelet (approx. €4), using which you can then always open one box at each attraction. Energylandia really offers an experience for people who like speed and adrenaline. They just have to wait for it :) I definitely recommend it.

The biggest amusement park in Poland! Lots of different rollercoasters, including extremely scary and more simple of kids and family. It's worth to spend there the whole day, they have everything you need. Very convenient system of storage boxes, you buy once for 17zl and can reuse it near every rollercoaster endless time. Also train station is very close, you can get by train from Krakow glowny within 1 hour for 12 zl, train goes every hour.

Amazing roller coaster ride! 🎢 The thrill, speed, and twists were incredible — pure adrenaline from start to finish. I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time! Definitely an unforgettable experience!

Without a doubt the best theme park I’ve ever been too, had a lot of fun! Rides are amazing. Something does need to be done about line cutters, did have a bunch of kids jump in line on Mayan by jumping over the wall. Overall an incredibly pleasant experience, everything’s is reasonably well priced and affordable.

This park is awesome! I love their locker system here, it’s very convenient and easy to use. They have lockers almost at every single ride so you can put your backpack or bag in there hassle free! The rollercoasters here are amazing. This park is better than the Six Flags parks I’ve been to. I recommend :)

The amusement park is really big. Next time we will definitely buy the multiple day ticket. We went on Saturday so it was packed. We chose a day that was super hot, but they had stations with water sprayers so that was nice. Waiting time were quite long which we expected as we went on a weekend. Other than that it was great! Even the water park for the kids! Highly recommend to check out this park!

Overpriced, extremely over priced over-rated, poor quality This review applies to both Mirów & Bobolice Castles, visited Saturday 2nd November 2024 Firstly, don't bother, don't waste your time. You can see all you need to see from outside the walls, there isn't much else in the grounds or actually inside the castles. Secondly. How did national ancient monuments come to be sold to a private buyer who now makes a profit from them, ...only in Poland. The entrance fee to the grounds is extortionate, hence not advertised on the websites, also there are aditional fees for entrance to the inside of the castles, extortionate again as there is nothing to see. In Bobolice if you want to go to the restaurant, you have to pay the entrance fee to the grounds of the castle.

Nice place. You can see some old stuff inside the castle. It's worth the visit. I love it.

Beautiful place and beautiful surroundings. The exposition inside is pretty small. You have 30 mins to visit, which is enough. It is not very "historic" inside, but still nice to see. There is forest around with really nice tracks to walk in a good weather.

One of the best looking castles I have ever seen. I am all for these types of renovations rather than just preserving the ruins.

Amazing castle Unfortunately employees are very rude. Especially the lady at the hotel reception. I asked her to show me the room to see if I like it or not, I wanted to find accomodation in the region. Price of 390 zlot seemed good to me, but when I asked her 2 show me she said ' I won' t show it to you'. Very disrespectful attitude. If this didnt happen, the castle is amazing.

Awesome place to see! The inside of the castle is great! Beautiful surround area. Worth the out of the way drive.

Great place to visit. The castle was restored almost completely by the new owner over the last 15 years. Tremendous job. The castle offers would wonderful views of the Jura. One can see the Mirow castle nearby. It's another great castle. Follow the red trail to get there from Bobolice. The hike takes 20 minutes.

Nice biking spot though not for the faint of heart!

Super

Ok but busy busy at weekends

Lovely will be back

Perfect

Super

Super hill

The most perfect place for a really good gastronomy experience! The staff is so friendly and helpfull, and the exhibition just WOOW. It’s an interactive exhibition, also in english language, and you can ask for an audio guide. The ticket price contains a mug of beer (alcohol or free), what you can taste in the end of the exhibition. After the pub, you can find a museum shop where you can buy memories from this great place!

Great museum - well thought out and very interactive - the highlight is getting the beer at the end - staff very knowledgeable and friendly - helpful too. Definitely worth a visit

It is worth the time to visit this beer museum. Some Helpful hints for your visit. 1. Google maps will take you to the center entrance but there is on a couple of places to park. I would go to next parking lot about 50m down the road and park there plus there is another entrance right off that parking lot taking you right to where you pay for tickets. 2. You pay for tickets and you get a alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink included. To your left of where you pay is a place to store your jackets 🧥 and they are a decent size. 3. Don't make the same mistake I did. When you face the storage lockers go left not right. If you go right that takes you to free drink and museum store. 4. This museum is modern and interactive. There are many displays that are interactive. One area has an antique bowling alley which was pretty cool to play. 5. Overall great experience and i put many pics in this review to give you an idea of what to expect.

Magnificent experience, perfect museum and great brewery experts inside.

A must visit place if in the area ! The museum is amazing ,the narrator is explaining every detail … The set up and presentations are done in a very modern way to keep the attention to the very end ! The tour finished with a beer taste ,there is an option for zero alcohol for drivers ! Well done !

Great tour in English. The tour guide was very good. Loved the interactive experience that takes you back in time and on a journey of making Żywiec beer and the history of the town and the brewery. Limited parking

11.5.2019 architecture nice,but about organisation not impressed....without reservation upfront not possible to get anything but a tour in polish,no individual visit possible.Comparably small souvenirshop,parking guidance zero,had even no motivation anymore to test the restaurant-compared with Tyskie,Lvivske,Pilsner Urquell,Budweiser etc very poor,not even to mention Heineken or Carlsberg... 15.8.2025 museum closed at dayoff....and social media team is not able to write this at google maps and even at the own homepage....

We had a very peaceful and pleasant time exploring the small but informative Jewish museum. After the 1000s at Auschwitz, this was very peaceful and reflective. In fact we were the only ones there. Highly recommended to have another view.

This museum was an absolute delight to visit. What really stood out, was the staff—friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their work. They made the experience even more enjoyable with their helpful insights and warm hospitality. The exhibit left a mark on me with its images or Jewish heritage and struggle and you could see through the organization this museum is passionate in educating its visitors. I definitely wish to return

A must-visit when in Oświęcim or Auschwitz. The staff – likely volunteers – are kind, helpful, and well-informed about the museum and its history. What makes this place especially moving are the personal stories connected to the photos and artifacts. It's not just history – it's human tragedy, respectfully presented. The museum’s free app, Oshpitzin, is excellent. You can download it from Google Play or the Apple App Store. It offers both insights into the Jewish history of Oświęcim and a virtual city tour. Everything is thoughtfully curated – simple, but powerful. Highly recommended: visit the museum and use the app, whether before, during, or after your stay.

As someone whose grandfather was born in Oswiecim, I thought they did a really great job in preserving this community’s memory and honoring it. I’d recommend, if you can, to ask for the keys to the cemetery and go visit there as well, also a very powerful experience

I visited the museum and synagogue of Oświęcim right after visiting Auschwitz. I received a guided tour by a museum employee name Lily who was knowledgable and adorable. Lily walked us through the different exhibitions and helped bring back to life the Oświęcim before WWII. The visit in the museum and synagogue was educating and even uplifting, in a sense that while the residents of Oświęcim may be gone, the Jews and the people of Israel and the spirit is still alive. Am Israel Chai!

Very interesting museum and a lovely tour done by a German Social Volunteer. English, German and Polish tours possible. Visit to the Old Synagogue is also nice and Jewish groups are able to hold a prayer with the old Thora. Beautiful, even though equipped with replicas. Very well worth a visit but don't expect much information on World War II. It's about Jewish life in the city.

A fitting end to a day after visiting Auschwitz-Birkenau, was to visit this small simple carefully curated museum. It is in the Old Synagogue of Oswiecim and it contextualises what was once a thriving Jewish community with artefacts, personal stories and photographs. A wonderful calming visit with a good instruction and welcome from Dr Artur Szyndler, a historian and curator. Delicious bagels in the small cafe helped to provide some sustenance on a long hot and moving evocative day.

Was a somber experience being in a place of death and torture, especially for my family members who endured this egregiously harsh and inhumane reality during WWII. We were never told to purchase tickets in advance so the museum was booked solid when we drove 3.5 hours from Warsaw to visit. The new Israeli owners, as crazy as it seems, have made it more difficult to gain entry with a walk in. We are able to observe the outskirts which was just as surreal and contained some valuable informative sights to see.

Incredibly somber and emotional experience. Seeing the scale of what happened here is overwhelming. We visited on a nice sunny day, but I couldn’t help but feel what the conditions must have felt like for those held within the camp during the harsh polish winters. A must see for anyone to remind us of what happened and try to ensure it can never happen again.

A huge museum, which is being restored to this day and is still being preserved. Book the tour in advance because you can get alone and for free only after 15:00. We got a very nice girl guide, it was very interesting and pleasant to listen to. We visited both camps, the total tour took about 4 hours. This place is very atmospheric, creepy. It is obligatory for everyone to visit, you need to know and not forget the history so that there are no more such things.

Probably one of the most badly organised tourist destinations in the world ! Always wanted to visit but was very disappointed, the complete cluster fxxk of the main entry, the inability to secure private tickets in advance via a official site, this resulted in almost 45 min to wait in a outdoor line until we could get to the ticket office and then another 2 hour wait until our time slot to actually get through the gate. I'd gladly pay €5-10 for advance tickets if I could get a guaranteed time to get in when I arrive. Once in there was no real flow or direction of what to see or what order to see it in. The official map was about as much use as sand in a desert, honestly a 5 year old could have drawn a better plan. Inside large tour groups dominated all the various things to see and we were often barged out of the way or unable to pass them while they blocked doors or things to see. My impression of the place has been ruined by visiting it and then when coming out, they don't even have clear signage where to get public transport back or a covered bus stop. The urban planner / architect who designed the new entrance and coach part obviously never tried visiting as a tourist.

This is a very sad experience. But I do recommend everyone to visit once in a lifetime. I learnt about it in a history lesson, but seeing it for real was just something else. The scale of it is just mad. There was 2 camps, second camp had more than 300 buildings. They were killing almost 5k people a day, in a gas chamber they fit 700 people at a time 😮 Its just crazy to see all the shoes of people who died there. And crazy to see the gas chamber. We all need to see the scale of it and learn from it so the history wont repeat itself... In the second camp, last building we entered was the barrack of ill women, it was called the death barrack, all of them were ill or unable to work, they were getting no food or water and if the barrack was full they were made to stay outside in a yard and wait to be taken to the gas chamber. Most of them died there in a barrack. It's so cruel. The free car park not in use. All car parks around is approx 30zloty. There is massive queue to get it, takes forever due to amount of people visiting. To get in need to go thru security like in the airport. Then there is audio tour. Our guide was not great, was hard to hear her as she didnt hold microphone properly. Was way too many people and very long backlog so we skipped quite few barracks. Once we got to second camp by bus our tour guide didnt wait for everyone so we got lost. Not very well organised tbh. After 1pm most days can visit camps without tour guides and it is free. This place would give chills to everyone.

Powerful to say the least! This was part of my bucket list of places to visit and WOW it did not disappoint. Moving does not do this place justice, understanding what the Jews, gypsies and other minorities went through during the Second World War, you can watch as many documentaries as you like but actually walking in their footsteps really does bring it home…..Unforgettable

One of the must see place if you are nearby. A piece of the most terrible european history, which shouldn't be forgotten. Very impressive. Get your ticket in advance on the web, as you can get guider in your language.

Not the easiest to find in front of the big shopping center, but its worth the visit. They are so cute. If you know their cartoon movies, visit them.

Nice place to visit...

Heroes of the old generation. Those who saw this animated series as a child are really interested to see them on the street.

This is a great statue of Bolek and Lolek. The local cartoon for children. It is situated between the 2 shopping centres in Bielsko Biala which is sfera shopping centre. Absoluteky must to see.

Looks nice for the very first 5 minutes after that you start to notice the crowded surroundings and nothing matches with the monument energy

Sentimental for Millennials that grew in Poland, however might not be so attractive for foreigners. Monument located in between two parts of Sfera Shopping mall.

Great for kids and adults who still remember this cartoon as dobranocka :) nice memories definitely something to go and check ;)

Beautiful Spa town in nice nature 😊

Beautiful place, I recommend to visit.

Town is very well taken care of. Easy to walk with toddler and stroller. Dogs are not allowed on colonnade. Dress nice and don't think ripped jeans are fine. Other visitors will give you dirty looks 😊 One disappointment was that most if not all restaurants/cafes closed at 6pm, which was weird for middle of summer.

Nice place, very calm, Coll coffees and bars alongside

So nice and peaceful place!

Love it !!! Spend so many evenings here, nice place for walk on summer days

beautiful spa colonnade. don’t forget to try warm spa wafer:)

A beautiful castle with amazing view from up , we went walking from Smraďavka and the way was interesting , it took around an hour and half , the only thing which made us upset that it's not allow to take ur pet with u inside

It's a beautiful tower but if you are with small kids you will not be allowed to go inside the castle as it's possible to do only with a guide in a group and kids can disturb people around. The area "outside" the castle is free to visit. It's really small but you will find a lot of corners for good photo shoot. Near the castle is a place for parking (free) and cafe with simple food. There you can pay ONLY with CASH!!! So take enough of cash money. The road from parking to castle is easy, so you can go there with kids for sure.

It was an amazing place to visit and the views from the lookout were just plain WOW! The guide was very informative and when they heard me speaking English, a person came to me and handed me a booklet in English. I was able to follow along with what was being said. The Castle is out of the way, but so worth visiting. I can't give it a full 5 stars because there are renovations underway and there was no gift shop or place to buy things. Definitely a place to return to.

Stunning castle and manor great tours and the groundshave so many different flora Have a coffee and pastry at the chocolate shoppe on the grounds The small village has good restaurants at great prices, as well as local pottery and other definate buys

It's a fine place to relax during long way to Slovakia. The main building if the castle is built in Spain style.

Castle is easy to access by car, parking cost 2 euros, than is line 5 min walk. You can have coffee at the premises, there is little art museum. Payment with credit card possible. Just 5 min from main road. Worth visit.

Buchlov Castle is located on a top of hill in Buchlov with an amazing view from the palace. This Castle is not that old but sill has lot of history and it is well preserved.

Disappointing: museum is miserable with some informations here and there. 1 rifle, 1 sword and you have it all... Who had the great idead to do renovation and close other parts during summer when tourists comes?! No english on boards so you have to walk with a notebook that gives you explaination it's the first time I see that and, come on, I visites museum all around the world...

Great history here. It was quite a detour for only a 60 mins visit, but worth it. I do recommend studying upfront what happened here to have a good understanding, else you might be disappointed. The museum is very simple, but had friendly staff, a small restaurant and doesn't cost much.

A very nice place for history lovers. If you know what the Battle of the Three Emperors was, you should definitely come here. And if you don't know — well, then you're a dummy and can just keep driving

At the time this review was written, construction was underway there. There is an opportunity to visit a small museum dedicated to Napoleon and the battle, there is a monument, before renovation, you could buy a ticket inside, but now there was no such opportunity. Overall beautiful and interesting

The monument is very beautiful. Be advised the museum is closed for renovations as of July 2025. They said it should reopen in the fall. There are several other smaller monuments scattered around the area, so take the time to check them out.

Parking right in front for he place, there a little souvenir shop as well as sort of restaurant/pub. Nice to see.

Nice memorial for the victims in Austerlitz battle, this was the center of battlefield with Russian and Austrian forces then passed on French side. There is a small museum with explanation.

A wonderful place, great service, good beer - number 11 👋

Kitchen review only, Top Notch of Czech Culinary standards, flavours & presentation. 6 out of 5. Well done, will come back 1000%, at family lunch tasted multiple dishes, amazing.

Good food in the restaurant. The tour in the brewery is not boring, short. Pity that the entrance is slightly far from parking, so if you want to buy some bigger load of beer than it is a bit difficult to get it into the car. If you like the film 'Postriziny', or Czech beer, then recommended!

Good beer, good restaurant. Recommend for a team building and sight seeing.

Over-hyped, visitor-hostile place. It is a nice brewery with reasonable beer and allegedly good food. The staff has been mega-unfriendly, starting with tour guide, ending with waitresses. Not even an attempt to give us a chance to sit and have a lunch on their empty beer garden. Spend your time elsewhere.

The place it is interesting for the touch of local brewery and decent food. I wouldn't say the food is special but yet good enough for my taste. A bit slowly and sometimes they forget something ordered or mess up during the order process. Overall I would raccomand to stop for a good beer (even i couldn't try because driving) and nice atmosphere.

Great food and perfect beer, place itself is nice with good atmosphere. If you saw movie Postřižiny, this place is a must to visit. And I recommend ribs and beer “majovy lezak.”

Went there just for a walk in the garden surrounding the castle,it's expensive entry for just an hour&half ! It has many labyrinth & beautiful nature.Its good with kids of all ages.You can spend 4-5hrs here easily.I was not aware of castle converted into Suits &may be try next time!Try visiting Rozhledna hrubý Jeseník near by!

The castle is nice, and the exhibits are very accessible, but not more to mention. There is no English tour, which makes it a bit boring for non Czech speakers. The gardens are charming, and kids can spend a few hours easily running in and between the labyrinths.

The staff for the first few days were absolutely amazing. The children's room had a few hazards, which inevitably led to a girl splitting her head open on a table that didn't have the plastic covering on a metal end, some tables had the plastic while others didn't. The toy box had nails sticking out. When the girl split her head, they removed the hazards upon my wife's request. I was in the room playing with the kids when this happened. The staff, who hadn't been there yet this week, were unprofessional. Saying things like "if you have a personal problem you should go home" or "If they would've watched their kids this wouldn't have happened" A simple apology would've sufficed, but they tried to save face instead. They have since decided to close the children's area instead of making it safer. Before this with the staff previously, it was the best hotel service I'd experienced. The cleaning ladies, the kitchen ladies and people at the front were absolute angels to my children, prior to this. It seems to me it was upper management who were the rude ones. Regardless, due to regulations in Czech Republic, anything labeled as a children's area should be free of hazards and should be frequently inspected by staff. I had planned to come back next year and rent out a better room, but unless there is some type of apology, I will not be returning. This would've been a five start review before this experience. I hope they find some way to rectify this experience, I'd love to give them the opportunity to apologize and compensate for their rudeness. If they do act professional, I definately would change my review. As of now, I won't be returning annually as I had planned.

The light show was great 🙏🏻

It was such a great experience. We took "Christmas tree tour". It was entertaining, knowledgeable, great decorations in the rooms, the tour guide was to the point. Only one thing I would change is the number of guest in one tour, I would make a smaller group.The manor house is beautiful plus it has huge park with attractions for kids and adults. We will definitely come back.

Great place for families with children, they will enjoy themselves a lot. Many people today, cause it is czech national holiday. Restaurant is not so good, not so many choices and prices are little bit higher, but in limits :-)..

Great place to visit , though a bit expensive in season. The multiple labyrinths located around the château gardens keep kids occupied for a few hours. The inside of the château is also very nice and the Vtipna kase Cafe is cozy and has great food. In the winter, though, some of the labyrinths are not accessible.
