Krakow Day tours, with a local
Like many of the cities of Europe, Krakow is a charming city with a rich heritage and stunning architecture. Throughout the city are amazing buildings from various periods of history.

01 Apr 2013 Monica was a fantastic guide for both the Jewish and Polish adventures. She is knowledgable, friendly and well organised. I particularly appreciate that she ran the tour for just one person. Thanks!
