"Our drive with Stan was fantastic! He promptly picked us up in a very clean and comfortable car, with water bottles ready to go. We had a pleasant drive to Auschwitz, with an impromptu stop for lunch (where he arranged dishes to be ready so that we wouldn't miss our tour). After the tour, he drove us to Krakow, while perfectly orienting us to Poland's history and culture, and telling great stories! We couldn't have had a better drive with Stan."

" Our trip from Vienna to Krakow was wonderful. Blazej was a patient, polite and safe driver. He went out of his way to show us around during our stop in Olomouc and helped us to meet our guide for our second stop in Auschwitz/Birkenau. We have used mydaytrip before and would definitely recommend the service as well as Blazej. 5 stars for sure. Esther"

"In all three cases, we took advantage of one sightseeing stop enroute. Rarely have we experienced such consistent and excellent service! In all three trips, your local drivers were punctual ( to the minute of scheduled arrival ), excellent drivers, personable, informative, and respectful. The drivers were willing to share tips and information about the lovely countryside that we were enjoying. Additionally, in every case, the cars were clean, and we had bottled water provided in two of the three cars. "

"My husband and I booked the trip through mydaytrip.com from Vienna to Kraków. It was a pleasant surprise. The booking process was clear and easy, and the charge was reasonable. The best of all, we had a wonderful driver, Stanislaw. The car was clean and nice, BMW 3 Series was quiet and comfortable. Stanislaw was in a professional manner. Stanislaw was born and raised in Krakow, he loves his town and his country . He proudly introduced Polish culture and history with fluent English. He also provided us detail travel suggestions. We almost chatted all the way from Vienna to Krakow. We felt lucky to have this good opportunity to learn Poland from a local person. Thank you Stanislaw, we wish you and your family the best. "
