Great tour. Very informative. - Great tour. Lots of useful information. 3 hour tour turned out to be little long for us, so we cut it short. Highly recommended.

Walking tour of Krakow Old Town with Chris - We had a wonderful tour with Chris. He was extremely friendly and informative. Chris has a wealth of information about all aspects of life in Krakow. He picked some great places to visit - including the obvious highlights and then a few lesser known gems. He speaks excellent English and communicated clearly with us.
Krakow is an amazing city with a fascinating history. I really recommend a walking tour there and can't imagine a better guide than Chris.
He also gave us a lot of tips about areas outside the city.

Highly Recommended! - Chris is an excellent guide. He is very experienced and was knowledgable on everything about Krakow/Poland. He was very reliable and was very easy to communicate with through emails from the initial planning process. Our private tour of the Old Town went very well because of his ability to be flexible and customized it perfectly based on our requests. I highly recommend getting Chris as your guide if you will be visiting Krakow or doing day trips from Krakow.

Excellent - Our guide Andre was very informative and friendly! He answered our questions as well as told us much about the history of Krakow. The tour is a walking tour, and there were 2 slight hills coming in and out of Wawel Castle. Wear comfy shoes! You end your time in the middle of old town, so bring cash with you to get a treat afterwards. We will definitely be back and hope to see Andre again!

Chris is an exceptional tour guide who LOVES his city! - We had a fantastic tour with Chris in old town Krakow. He is very knowledgeable, easy going, and speaks very good English. As a native of Krakow he really knows and loves his city.
Krakow is very clean and has a fun safe vibe with friendly people. It’s a walkable city with loads of dining options, shops, and historic sites to investigate.
Book a tour with Chris to get the inside scoop of this amazing place!

Great informative Personalized tour - We had a personalized tour in English with 3 of us. It was about 2.5 hours as we decided not to go into wawel castle and spend time elsewhere. English was very good and tour guide (christoff) was very friendly and knowledgeable. His love for his hometown was evident. The order of things we saw was not in the same order as listed on the website but still touched all the sites. Only complaint is that the website states 2 admissions (st Mary’s basilica and wawel) are included but we did not go inside so seems like we paid for something we did not do
