Knowledgeable guide - Amazing trip, the guide was really knowledgeable, made everyone feel included in the history and the group. She told us many cool facts and made history interesting and fun. The only thing I didn't like was single use headphones, I rather share overhead headphones than polluting the planet.

Wawel Tour - This was probably the best tour we did in Krakow. Our guide, Eva, was extremely knowledgeable about the castle and the Cathedral, but kept it light and entertaining. Her obvious knowledge of Polish history was a real plus. But her personality was the topper - an extremely relatable and nice person who didn't perceive questions as an interruption to her job- she welcomed them and made the experience that much more enjoyable.

Anna and the Wawel Castle & Cathedral walking tour. - We did the Wawel Castle & Cathedral walking tour with Anna on Tuesday 12th March. Anna was brilliant - talking constantly in excellent English through the streets and into the amazing Cathedral. Up into the bell tower and down into the crypt - then on to the Staterooms where we learned about the famous Mustaches 1, 2 & 3 !! An excellent tour, superb guide & 100% value for money.

Nice Quick Tour of Wawel Castle highlights - A good quick tour of the highlights of Wawel castle.The guide moved and spoke very fast and made it challenging at times to understand what she was talking about, but given the time crunch it’s understandable. She did answer questions and was extremely knowledgeable. If you want to see more recommend a half day tour

Pleasurable afternoon tour that packs a lot in - Loved the guided walk through the cathedral & it’s crypts & the visit to the staterooms was a pleasant experience too. Guide & staff were really helpful in overcoming mobility issues & the lift in the castle was a real bonus, but one you need to ask for access to.
