A Fabulous morning - Janina is very well informed about all things Krakow. We had a fun and flexible morning not only learning the history but also visiting areas lived in by the locals. We would recommend Janina.

Tomasz was great! - We highly recommend this tour. Tomasz was great in outlining the history of Krakow and Poland, plus he intertwined other fun facts of the area. He even took us to a local market which was a great way to start the tour. Great value.

Highly Rated Tour - Tomasz was everything we expected from a "With Locals" guide. He met us on time and took us around the town giving us exactly what we wanted in terms of local knowledge and experience. The time we spent with him gave us an insight into the history and geography of the town and was definitely time well spent. Tomasz was engaging and very pleasant, willing to answer any and all questions. He also provided us with several recommendations for restaurants and café's which we took up with over the course of our stay. Highly recommended. This trip was actually taken in Dec 2019 but pre 2020 reviews are no longer shown and we felt it only fair that good reviews are retained. We love the "With Locals" Service and use it whenever possible.

Stories and Sights of the Old Town and Wawel —LOVED IT! - Tomasz is a fantastic tour guide. He showed me the sights I was interested in seeing and shared some of the stories behind them. It was a tailored-made tour, and he proved to be incredibly knowledgeable and easy to chat with. I would definitely book another tour with him. And I’m looking forward to booking through “with Locals” now that I’ve discovered them :). THANK YOU, Tomasz!

Highlight of my visit to Krakow - It was a real pleasure to meet Maya and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Excellent knowledge with stories that brought places and people "to life", lovely personality and great sense of humour. I've been on many tours, with guides, throughout the world and Maya is amongst the best.

Best day in Krakow - What an introduction to Krakow, we loved it! Ewa was a fantastic guide, whose extensive knowledge made our morning both interesting and fun. We were left thinking we needed more time in Krakow as Ewa pointed our so many interesting sights. We loved the personal style of the tour and would recommend Ewa to anyone.

Original guide unresponsive; replacement guide was great. - Unfortunately, Anna didn't show up, didn't bother to reply to my confirmation e-mail, didn't answer the phone, and didn't respond to a WhatsApp message. From that standpoint, very unprofessional and hopefully not indicative. On the positive side, a replacement guide was present, and she was fantastic and very enthusiastic, so in the end, it appears this may have been a fortuitous upgrade!
