I booked this tour solely for the trip to monastery at Czestochowa, and I was not disappointed. In addition to the chapel with the "Black Madonna", there were three very interesting and moving museums. Then on the way back to Krakow, we stopped at an amazingly well preserved castle with an interesting decorative arts museum. What a great day!

After Auschwitz, this was a very uplifting experience.

It was a delightful trip, and we had an excellent tour guide.

If you are Catholic, this is a must. The tour was very interesting. However, we felt rushed to try and attend mass, visit the museums and spend some time in the store. Another half an hour would have been nice.

This is an unhurried day away from the city. The Black Madonna has put Czestochowa on the map, which is a blessing for the tourist trade which would have been lost without it! It's a significant icon for Catholics, so it draws Poles as well as tourists. The treasury is worth a look too. I also enjoyed the return journey through the attractive countryside and Pieskowa Skala Castle. The castle also had a museum with good displays of furniture and art, some real treasures.
