This is a standard Kraków tour serving as a general introduction to the city, its history, culture, and monuments.
As a local of Kraków and experienced guide with a background in comedy I am well equipped to provide information regarding all the points of interest during the tour - we will pass by some of Kraków's main landmarks, as well as museums, restaurants, and bars. I will be glad to provide you with many recommendations. I am well acquainted with the city's history, culture, and current events, but also energetic and enthusiastic about sharing the city's many secrets in a fun and entertaining way!
Plac Matejki, the historical entrance to Kraków and starting point of the tour, has numerous locations of interest: churches, statues, university buildings. It is also a lovely place to take photos.
Kraków was selected to be the capital of Poland for its defensive properties. A section of the the once great city walls remains intact until today and it is rich with history and legends, especially pertaining to Saint Florian.
Kraków's main square is the largest medieval main square in all of Europe and basically every single building adjacent to it has a very rich and varied history as well as associated legends. Some of Poland's main monuments are located here, like St. Mary's Basilica and the Cloth Hall Sukiennice. The vicinity has also numerous museums and restaurants I will be more than glad to recommend during the tour.
