A great end to a fabulous holiday - A great alternative to the normal walking tours. A mix of vampires, ghosts, the devil and kings. Thoroughly enjoyed by my teenage son and will look to do similar in other cities around Europe in the future.

A must do tour when visiting Krakow! - This tour is a must when you visit Krakow! Patrick was our tour guide and he was wonderful. He came across as very enthusiastic and passionate when he told his stories which really helped putting the message across. His English was extremely good and he spoke clearly and calmly, using body language to support himself. I traveled with my mom who is not very proficient in the language. However, she managed to understand most of Patrick’s stories because of the way he spoke and acted. All in all, this tour was one of the highlights of my trip and if you like ghost stories and stories about vampires, witches, dragons, etc. this tour is also for you!
