"Bartek was wonderful. His knowledge about the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter is very impressive. He was also very understanding about my Dad being hard of hearing and trying to make sure he could hear everything. We really enjoyed the experience and would recommended him to everyone! "

Day in Krakow
"My wife, myself and another couple spent a wonderful day exploring and learning about the beautiful city of Krakow with Tomasz. This young man was a delight—great personality, intelligent and a thorough knowledge of the history, culture and nuances of his country and city. He was passionate about his work and we, as a group thought he was our best guide in our four week trek across Europe—could not give him a higher recommendation. "

Sto lat!
"We’ve done tasting tours before, but this was by far the best one. Tomasz created a vegetarian food tour just for us and enriched the experience by sharing Polish customs, phrases, and a bit of history. This was my first visit to Poland, and experiencing the culture in this way made it even more special. I definitely plan to hire Tomasz for another tour the next time we are in Krakow."

Walk back through history
"Our small group found Bartek to be a very engaging, highly educated historian with a great sense of humor. He clearly has a passion for history, not just of Kraków or Poland, but of worldly events and how they affected Poland and he told many stories and myths that made the information easier to retain. He was also knowledgeable about architecture, culture, customs, food, and more. Bartek knows the city like the back of his hand. He recommended several restaurants, and all were excellent. Out of the dozen or so city tours we have done, Bartek was the best guide we've had. I would hire him in a heartbeat."

"From start to finish, Bartek made sure every aspect of our experience was excellent. Pickup perfect and right at our location, a drive out to Auschwitz’s filled with personal anecdotes and warm, friendly conversation, and great communication so we always knew where to find him. He also arranged a private tour of Auschwitz for us with one of the museum guides which is well worth doing to make the experience more personalized. A wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend Bartek!"
"The tour with Krzystof was very interesting and comperhensive.
He is very knowledgable, and on the same token attantiv to us.
He showed us some recommended restaurants and a jazz club where we went later on that night and loved it."

Perfect first day in Poland
"We booked a Krakow food tour with Aleksandra for our first day of a 10-day trip in Poland — it was a perfect introduction to the city’s food scene and Polish cuisine in general.
Aleksandra was a wonderful guide. She was incredibly knowledgable not just about the food, but about history and current affairs, and she patiently answered our many questions. (She encouraged us not to hold back since, according to her, “political correctness does not exist in Poland.”) She had a great sense of humor, brought her own interesting perspective to the tour, and provided us with many recommendations for the rest of our visit. Oh, and I should mention that all the food and drink places she took us to were absolutely delicious.
I highly, highly recommend booking a tour with Aleksandra if you are visiting Krakow — it is the ideal way to begin any trip there. "

Wonderful and lively tour of Krakow
"Aleksandra guided us with enthousiasm and passion through Krakow. The Jewish quarter was a revelation! We were there with our family and my daughters, roughly of the same age as Aleksandra, really enjoyed hearing about the recent history and life in Krakow from when she was young. We enjoyed the food and bar tips she provided to us before and after the tour. I can only strongly recommend to hire Alexandra as you guide!"

An amazing day spent with Aleksandra!
"We loved our food tour with Aleksandra and agreed it was our favorite day in Krakow. The food was all amazing and we went to restaurants and shops we never would have found otherwise. We loved learning about the history of not only the food but of Krakow as well. Aleksandra is lovely it talk to and I enjoyed discussing food and more with her. "
"We had an excellent experience with our guide. She was very knowledgeable and shared a wealth of information throughout the tour. Her explanations were clear, engaging, and full of interesting details, which made the experience truly enjoyable and memorable.
We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an informative and captivating tour experience."
