Thomasz our tour guide was absolutely fab. Friendly, funny and genuinely enthusiastic about the city. Small group. We kept moving as much as possible which was great, especially in the cold weather! Very informative and visited places we would never have gone into if we had just been wandering on our own. Definitely recommend if you are interested in the history of Krakow and a super way of booking tours and paying what you think they are worth. Will definitely recommend and use again.
Highly recommend

Really interesting tour that covered most of the key sights in the old town. Good introduction to do when you arrive in the city before exploring on your own. Tour guide was excellent!
