Delicious food and amazing guide! - We took this tour near the beginning of our stay in Kraków to get recommendations about the local cuisine and it exceeded all of our expectations. Not only did we sample delicious Polish foods and drinks, but we also learned a lot about the history of the former Jewish quarter. Our guide Konrad is an excellent storyteller - listening to him might have been the best part of the tour! He also shared with us additional recommendations for places to check out, which was really helpful for the rest of our trip.

Fantastic, a real hidden gem. - This is easily the best way to experience a restaurant menu in Poland! The food was incredible and there was so much - definitely worth the value. Our guide Piotr was probably the nicest person we met in Poland. When you book, you should ask and make sure he’s your guide! Very knowledgeable and so welcoming. I will absolutely recommend this tour and Piotr to anyone I know visiting Krakow.

Delicious and worth every penny! - Piotr Was such a lovely and informative guide, really friendly and knowledgeable. Could have asked him anything. Nothing was too much trouble. We were a lovely small group , 2 of us and another group of three. Having such a small group made it even better - became like a family teatime ! The restaurants were fabulous, perfectly picked. And the food … AMAZING. So tasty - Poland, you cater well! Would totally recommend this food tour. We also had a taste of some vodkas and a chance at the market bit to nip into a bar. Definitely come with an empty belly and a hearty appetite! You will be extremely full at the end!

Perfect experience - I had an excellent time on this tour guided by Kristina. She really made the tour super enjoyable and comfortable. She was extremely knowledgeable about the different food. She was also very engaging which helped it not feel awkward being in a group with strangers.
We had a chance to try a lot of the foods and/or places I had on my list to try and many more I would have never tried but so glad that I did. I wasn’t planning to try the soup we had in the tour and it ended up being my favorite dish. This was also great because I was not initially sure if I’d have enough time to go to all of the places on my own. It was also great to share the various dishes, so I could try more variety and not feel guilty about wasting food.
Overall, I’d highly recommend the tour and think that it was time and money very well spent.
