5.00Natalia was an excellent guide. We got to see parts of Krakow (e.g. the market) that could be easily overlooked, with some great hints for where to eat well without paying a fortune. Very helpful introduction to the history and architecture of this beautiful city.

5.00It was a tour with many interesting details, very enjoyable. Marta is a true professional. She speaks clearly in English and in a way that is easy for everyone to understand. After the tour, she gave us many useful links (restaurants and places to visit). I even contacted her privately after 3 days to ask about a tourist attraction, and she replied—very kindly—even though I didn’t expect it. We highly recommend this tour with full confidence.
