Kraków is a city featured in every travel guide – and for a good reason! The Main Market Square, Wawel Castle, St. Mary’s Basilica – are iconic landmarks you’ve likely seen. But do you know the stories behind these places? As you stroll through the Planty Park, can you hear the laughter of kings, the clatter of carriages, the whispers of medieval students? A regular map won’t tell you these tales – but a guide who knows the city inside out will.
A truly great guide brings the past to life – turning statues into characters, buildings into storytellers, and streets into scenes from a living history book. That’s the difference between a tour with a guide and a solo walk with a paper map – you get a living narrative, adapted to your pace, questions, and curiosity.
Our guides are passionate locals – people who don’t just know the facts, but also know anecdotes, stories from courtyards, and secrets passed down from generation to generation. Thanks to them, every walk becomes a journey through time and space.
We’re not fans of “2 minutes for a photo and move on” kind of tours. We believe a city is truly discovered when you allow yourself to slow down. To look up. To peek behind a gate. To listen to the sounds you’d normally miss in a crowd. Our walks have a natural rhythm, no rigid schedules. You choose what captures your attention.
Want to explore lesser-known neighborhoods like Podgórze? Wander the artistic streets of Kazimierz? Or learn about the culinary traditions of old Kraków? All of it is within reach – simply tell us what you’d like to explore.
We believe the quality of a tour is about more than just knowledge – it’s about the atmosphere. We prioritize quality over quantity – every group is kept small and intentional. Small groups allow for conversation, personal questions, and moments of silence when the city speaks for itself. It’s less of a lecture and more of a shared experience – one that stays with you long after the walk ends.
Our walks are for everyone – no matter your age, background, or pace. We offer a range of routes, from family-friendly strolls to themed experiences focused on history, literature, food, or Kraków’s most intriguing legends. Our routes are carefully chosen to be accessible, interesting, and full of variety.
You don’t need to be a history buff to enjoy the experience. Sometimes all it takes is curiosity, an open mind, and a good pair of shoes.
Let the city tell you its story – one step at a time. Whether you’re drawn to hidden alleyways, culinary tales, or royal legends, there’s a route waiting for you.
