Hello Joshua, thank you for your nice comment and review! Hope to see you again, Greetings, Marcin
Our guide was very knowledgeable and a local citizen. The bikes were ok and easy to use. The cobbled streets, strange one way streets and some close encounters with other vehicles made it a bit dangerous. Also we were unlucky with the weather as it rained quite a bit( poncho’s were supplied). All together a good experience and very interesting modern history lesson of this beautiful city.
Hello Pete, thank you for your comment and review. Krakow is very cyclists friendly city - with a lots of exclusive bike roads and solutions which makes life easier for cyclists. It also involves for examplee contra-lanes on the quite streets with minor movements of cars. Road is easy and everybody with basic skill of cycling can do it. For our guests we always provide ponchos in case of rain! Greetings, Marcin
