Informative and engaging tour. A great orientation to the city and its history. Highly recommend.
Nice experience, our guide Chris was very knowledgeable and showed immense pride in what he was doing for us today. We really appreciated him sharing with us his knowledge.
Chris was wonderful— informative, engaging and very friendly.
Thank You very much for the review, Chris will be happy to hear!
Jack was terrific. What a lovely time, full of history and insights. Plus he is very funny, would happily have another tour!
Our tour guide Ania was very good. Not only so informative on the history of the sites, but eager to discuss things on a one on one basis. I enjoyed our personal conversations. We covered a lot of ground in 2.5 hours. This gave us a great preview to the many wonders of Krakow.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour of Krakow, Chris our guide was enthusiastic and passionate, we learned so much of the city history and the culture and have no hesitation in recommending this tour.
Agnes was incredible, very friendly, and knowledgeable; we enjoyed the tour a lot, highly recommended!!

Very educational and informative with a great guide, I would highly recommend this tour with walking tours , they have great excursions. Ask for Anya
I’ll write this less than one , point as we didn’t make our trip , you’ve told me were in the wrong place, question a refund , you were sent away from the right destination, it wasn’t really well organised , it cost us 100 Zotti to get to the destination again, couldn’t find the Guide couldn’t get in touch with the Guide, very poor, will not be recommending this to any of our friends, requesting a refund otherwise I’ve taken this further kind regards, Gareth Dawson and Kate Thomas
Dear Gareth and Kate, we are very sorry to hear about your experience. Our office checked the situation regarding your booking, the tour did run as scheduled, and from the correct meeting point. However, we understand that there was confusion which resulted in you missing the experience. This is not the experience we want for our guests, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused. We are processing a full refund for your booking. Kind regards,
Honestly the best tour you could of asked for, especially if you just want to do something random and free. I booked it within the hour of the tour starting with no problems whatsoever. I had Big Tom as my tour guide and he knew the ins and outs of the city down to the littlest detail, He knew how to keep such a large group, maybe 30 people, interested and entertained at the same time. Its about 2 hours long but a perfect way to spend sometime wandering the streets, It did help that the weather was incredible with sunshine all the way through.
Thank You very much for the review, we are very very happy that everything coincided perfectly - perfect weather, perfect city, perfect tour guide;) All the best!
