Kracow Walking Tour - Rudolph was great, really knowledgeable, interesting and funny. Wished we’d been able to fit it in at the beginning of our visit rather than on our last day as he really brought the city to life and was full of tips of things to do and see.

Would not recomend - Tour visited some historical sites. Guide did not wait for entire group before sharing facts. Guide was not mindful of participants when crossing streets that part of group did not male it accross due to traffic
In general was not mindful or attendant to group.
Tour is 3 hours be mindful when booking tour could continue after sundown.
