Experience Culture by Walking and Eating with a Local Guide - Amazing! What better way to know a country's culture than to personally experience parts of it, right? In this case, there's nothing like walking and talking with a local guide who takes you to various "secret" hangouts and sample their food (and drinks):
PIEROGI's: with meat, potatoes & white cheese, cabbage & mushrooms, spinach & feta cheese
starters:
OBWARZANEK - bread from Kraków
OSCYPEK - cheese from sheep milk from area of PODHALE
main dishes:
SOUPS: BARSZCZ (from fermented beetroot), ŻUREK (sour rye soup) and POMIDOROWA (tomato soup)
SECOND DISH: BIGOS (sour cabbage with meat), KIEŁBASA (grilled meat), PLACKI ZIEMNIACZANE (potato pancakes with goulash and sour cream) GOŁĄBKI (cabbage rolls)
So well worth it. Writing this makes my mouth water. Get off the bus and try it! (Plug for Kasia, our patient guide)

Satisfying Culinary Tour with Kasia - Our lovely guide Kasia took us on a culinary tour of delicious traditional local foods and drinks in unique venues. She was knowledgeable not only about the food, but also shared interesting information about Krakow's traditions, culture and entertainment scene. The food choices were excellent and we were more than satisfied with the value. We highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in a wonderful introduction to Polish cuisine and culture.

A taste of Krakow - Dominika was our guide on a delicious tour around Krakow, tasting some of the most popular dishes. She was very knowledgeable about the places we stopped and the foods we tried. She asked if we were familiar with any Polish foods or had any Polish Roots.
She did a wonderful job explaining some of the history of the buildings as well as typical dishes you'd have for holidays and explained how some food like pickles for example are different from the kind you would find in he US.
There was a stop that included tasting beer, where she asked if anyone didn't like beer and if so she'd try to find something else to taste also.
Everything was delicious and very well planned out. If you are a food lover or are just looking to broaden your taste buds and want to try some delicious Polish foods, I definitely recommend this tour. :)

Come hungry- leave fulfilled! - This is a must do tour! Our guide Alicja, led us through Krakow to four unique restaurants with delicious local foods. Each place served a specialty of the house. Some places were family owned and some historic - a delight for the eyes and the belly! Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and gave us plenty of time to savor each dish.

Fabulous Dining Experience - This food tour was absolutely fabulous. Our tour guide was Mateusz. Since this was a private tour, it was just me, my wife and Mateusz. This could have gone either way, bad or good, depending on the guide. Well, we lucked out. Mateusz was great. Spoke great English so there were no language issues which was important in a private tour. He took us to unique places where we dined on wonderful Polish dishes,
(and drank beer and vodka) some of which we had not yet experienced during our stay. Between the food, the beer and the vodka, Mateusz provided us with an interesting history of the places where we ate and drank, the food, the drink and the city itself. Plus, he gave us some insight into the history of Poland as well. I highly recommend the tour, and if you can get Mateusz, all the better.

Fantastic food tour! - We had such a great time on our tour! Tomasz took our two families (including five little kids under 7) all over Krakow. We had so much amazing food, and he did a wonderful job explaining the food, culture, and history of Krakow at the same time. We would absolutely recommend it, including for families of young children.
