Hi there My boyfriend and I have krakow booked for next week 18-22 March. We are supposed to be travelling from Dublin. We are not sure whether to continue with the trip, or cancel it due to corona virus. Are most tourist places still open? I’m aware museums are starting to close etc. Just wondering if it will be worth it for us to go as we wanted to visit Auschwitz etc. We were planning to fly out of Warsaw and get the train from krakow to Warsaw. If anyone could provide us with some information that would be great

Hi there, Auschwitz website is your first port of call for up to date info. There are two camps to visit if open with much of the tours being outdoors although when in the buildings it is often single file. There are many companies running tours. Krakow is beautiful with fantastic architecture to enjoy . Just walking the Royal Route and along the banks of the Vistula is worth the trip. Go first class on the train from Krakow -Warsaw as you get little extras like snacks and drinks en route. The trains are very comfortable and like our Azumas but due to poor infrastructure do not go high speed. Enjoy.
