Tour in itself is a lot of fun to do. The guide (woman) was not friendly. Snarly. With another guide it would be 5 stars.
We loved the food tour, our guide (I think her name was Anna) did an amazing job! She talked us through the history of the city, the significance of the food and told many great stories as well. We had a great crowd of people and we met some really nice folks. The food was also so tasty! I will be recommending this tour to anyone who is visiting Krakow. 😍
The guide was a wealth of information - very good ! Trying the Communist Era Pizza and Cherry Vodka Liquor were the highlights. I was seriously disappointed that we didn't get to try the Obwarzanka ... the samples should be reserved ahead of time! The farmers market fermented cucumbers and cabbage, sausage and cheeses were also interesting but it would be more enjoyable to have a few more places to stop. What about one of the bakeries to try a rose jelly donut?
The whole experience was great. Guides need to have colourful umbrella with company logo on as struggled to find. Daniel our guide made the experience fun and would strongly recommend this tour on your first day.
Mountains, castles, and natural. Guide&Driver Artor is a warm person. Private tour provides full-care touring. Only one thing is needed to take care of, a healthy body, proper pants and shoes are needed, especially there are lots of nature paths ahead.
