Helen was amazing. Such a great storyteller and so informative. Brought out tour to life. Highly recommend
Dear Deb_S, Thanks so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your tour of Krakow's Jewish Quarter and that Helen’s storytelling brought the experience to life. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are grateful for the opportunity to share this remarkable place with you. We’d love to welcome you again on another Rosotravel tour in the future! Regards, Rosotravel team
Our guide was excellent, and very knowledgeable. This tour covers many interesting places in what was the Jewish Quarter. If you can, avoid going during the summer because the most well-known places you stop at are packed with people and students.
Service by Natalia was impressive. She is reliable, punctual, and sensitive to the traveler needs. She found as a travel guide Ms. Marta Chmielowska. Sent to my family after a cancelation, Marta was a fantastic guide. She was punctual (on short notice) also was very honest and knowledgeable. Rossodgeable. Marta's private tour (with my family of four adults) was as a real value and a true joy! I will recommend her and will always recommend. RosoGroup. Thanks!, Bernard Lisker
