A Remarkable and Deeply Moving Journey Through Poland’s History – Expertly Guided & Organized
This was our first time in Poland, planned around the Iron Maiden concert in Warsaw, and we wanted to experience as much WWII history as possible. From start to finish, our journey with AB Poland Travel was unforgettable. Thanks to Magda and Zuzanna’s outstanding coordination, every detail—from hotel bookings to taxi transfers—and daily schedules.
Each guide brought their own expertise and passion. Jurek and Jacek took us through Lublin, Majda nek, and Sobibór, weaving personal stories and deep historical insight into an emotional, humbling day. Wojtek led us to the Wolf’s Lair and Mamerki with an academic’s precision. Paweł brought Warsaw’s history alive, from the Old Town to local hangouts, Warsaw Ghetto sites, and later guided us through Treblinka and the Białowieża forest. Even our long day to Auschwitz-Birkenau and Kraków with Jacek was expertly managed—an intense, meaningful experience.
Behind the scenes, Magda and the office team were incredible—quick to respond, flexible with adjustments, and genuinely committed to making our trip special.

Great company to see Poland with
We had a short stay in Poland and booked with AB Poland Travel to help us see as much as we could in the 2 days that we had there. They responded to any questions I had promptly and provided good options considering our schedule. They helped book train tickets from Warsaw to Krakow - it was a very efficient service: quick and comfortable. We had a walking tour of Krakow with Bruno - he was great! Super fun and informative. And finally we visited Auschwitz and Birkenau which was the main goal of our trip. The guides there are very respectful and they ensure that the tour pays respect to all those who were killed. I would definitely recommend this company and I would love to visit Poland again after this impressive first visit - I wouldn't hesitate to book with AB Poland Travel again. ... [read more]
