A Cracking Time in Krakow - Christopher was an amazing guide. We booked a last minute tour in the early evening and everything was seamless. Not only was he extremely informative and kind, but he tailored the itinerary to better suit the hours of the sights and make sure we didn’t miss anything important. We highly recommend booking this experience - it will be time well spent learning about this beautiful city!

Fantastic Walking Tour of Old Krakow - We enjoyed a terrific walking tour of old town Krakow with Christopher. He is incredibly knowledgeable, super personable, and an excellent guide. We saw many sites we would never have found on our own and learned so much about Kraków’s history.

Amazing Guide - Excellent Old City Walking Tour with Chris who was our guide for 3 hours. Chris was extremely knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Weather was cold with heavy snowfall but Chris was very accommodating stopping for a hot chocolate on the way so we could warm up! I would highly recommend this tour as it gives you an insight into this beautiful city that you would otherwise miss. Highlight of our visit to Krakow.

Krakow Old Town with Chris is a must! - Christopher was an excellent guide for me, my husband, 17 yr old & 22 yr old. He knew the city and its history well and was very interesting. He answered any question we had and even helped with local recommendations. The pace was just right for us.

Super informative and insightful - Chris was exceptional, he’s like a walking history book. And he didn’t just regurgitate numbers and facts. He presented an organized, insightful picture of the historical events. We engaged private guides all over the world. Chris is no doubt one of the best we had, so far. If you are into history, local customs, culture, you won’t be disappointed. If we take another trip to Krakow, Chris will definitely get a call from us. Actually we were so impressed we booked another trip the next day to see the Jewish quarter. We highly recommend both.

Private Walking Tour of Krakow Old Town - Fantastic private tour of Krakow with Chris. We started off well when he met me right at the arrivals platform when my train arrived from Warsaw so we wouldn’t waste time looking for each other. Chris took me on a fascinating and well-paced walk through Old Town, sharing many interesting historical facts and pointing out things I would have never known from the guidebooks. He tailored the experience to my personal preferences and even ensured I was on time for my next activity when we wrapped up. Chris is an engaging and super professional guide - I definitely recommend him!
