Częstochowa, [t͡ʂɛ̃stɔˈxɔva] ( listen), is a city in southern Poland on the Warta River with 240,027 inhabitants as of June 2009. It has been situated in the Silesian Voivodeship (administrative division) since 1999, and was previously the capital of the Częstochowa Voivodeship (1975–1998). However, Częstochowa is historically part of Lesser Poland, not of Silesia, and before 1975 (see: Partitions of Poland), it belonged to the Kraków Voivodeship. Częstochowa is located in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland. It is the 13th most populous city in Poland. It is the largest economic, cultural and administrative hub in the northern part of the Silesian Voivodeship.

We were picked up on time by Wojciech. He was a fantastic guide. From start to finish we were looked after perfectly. It is quite a long drive but absolutely worth it. The scenery is outstanding. We enjoyed seeing traditional wooden houses and 15th century Church of St Michael the Archangel. Rafting in Dunajec was pleasant. The rafts hold 12 people and it was quite busy. I recommend if you visit Krakow allow yourself 6 days as there is so much to see and do.

That was a really good trip. We were picked up from our hotel. Our driver explained us everything and was waiting for us in the car to drive us to Birkenau and after to our hotel. Guide was a real professional and he anwsered all our questions. We used Krakow Direct and it was superb. Remember to get some snacks or lunch as the tour is really exhausting and there is no time to seat & eat.

As we think about Poland, we see a christian country, with a devout religious community. Christian culture and architecture was growing constantly for a thousand years since 966 Poland has adopted Christianity. Whilst visiting Krakow it is worth focusing on the Christian part of Poland’s history. You simply have to leave your hotel to encounter an enormous amount of churches, basilicas, and sacral sculptures- but very close to Krakow we have something even more special. Located in the city of Częstochowa is Poland's national shrine icon, which have drawn pilgrims from across the globe for centuries. Long popular with pilgrims and holidaymakers, the most famous Polish sanctuary with the holy icon of the Black Madonna.

Chris has a comfortable car and social distances. We asked him to do our airport-hotel transfer and four trips, Jewish Quarter, Schindler’s Factory, Salt Mines and of course Auschwitz. Went as smooth as clockwork. Chris is personable, knows his stuff and delivers in an informative way. Bespoke private service. Faultless 6 stars. Nice guy, follow this advice. You get what you pay for but he is a bargain.

We were a group of four. The tour was for approx. 7 hours in the car. They sent us a large enough car so it was very comforting. Our driver gave us pit stops on the way when we requested and our guid in Krakow gave us some stop at the cafe and souvenir shops for us so we had some free time and learned interesting historical facts about Krakow. Very interesting and comforting experience in total. Breakfast and dinner is not included so I recommend that we bring some snacks on the tour.

Our family spent several days in Krakow in the safe and very friendly hands of our most knowledgable and highly skilled driver Alek. He was prompt collecting us from the apartment, and he had a unique knowledge of his city and homeland. Alek added considerable value to the trip to Auschwitz-Birkenau, and was very patient with our granddaughter. On the following day he drove us to the Salt Mines in very difficult weather conditions . On the last day he took me to the shooting range, and afterwards showed me the picturesque lake and facilities of Krakow Bagry. Both his reliability and dependability ensured that our trip to Krakow was a complete success. We would highly recommend the company he works for namely 'Welcome in Krakow'. We hope to return to the city and avail ourselves again of the company's and Alek's expertise. Brilliant!

After being picked up from your accomodation in Kraków you will travel in comfort directly to the Black Madonna Shrine at Częstochowa with friendly English speaking driver. It is a private tour. It takes about 2 hours to drive from Kraków to the famous Pauline Monanstery. As early as the fourth century the image of St. Mary was sent from the Holy Land by St. Helena to her son, Emperor Constantine, in Byzantium. Before the year 1000, it reached Southern Poland as part of the dowry in marriage between families from Constantinople and Kiev. There have been reports for centuries of miraculous events occuring to those who made a pilgrimage to the unique portrait. See a place visited by Pope John Paul ll, Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis. Time for lunch. After your tour you will come back to Kraków.
