Did two guided tours with Rudolf as our tour guide today. Couldn’t recommend him enough. He made the day interesting, a little bit of theatrics, lots of history, culture and knowledge. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. We have come away feeling the need and want to learn more. An amazing young man and a great tour guide - thank you for bringing the history of Poland alive
Booked the tour online and met the guide Maciej outside St Marys Basilca. There were around thirty people on the tour at the start and at the end! Maciej was a good guide very knowledgeable and the walk around the old town was great having the explanation for things we had seen but not known the reason for it. We stopped half way for a beer which was in a great little Cafe called Chimera. The tour is free but definitely give the guide a tip!! The tour lasted for just short of three hours.
Michej was an amazing guide, full of knowledge and excellent stories. Saw all of the big sites of the Old Town in Krakow and was very entertaining. Would highly recommend his tour!
