Great Polish food tour - Tomasz was a fantastic guide. He had already guided us on a tour(where he was wonderful too) and gave us so much information and so much great traditional Polish food and drink. The stories were great, his conversation was wonderful and all his food choices were superb. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a great taste of a fabulous country.

Amazing guide, fascinating history & great food - We had a great time on our tour with Tomasz in Krakow. We had asked Tomasz if we could combine food tasting with history on our walking tour of the Old Town area since we only had a couple of days in Krakow, and he did such a good job - it was perfect! He was super-knowledgeable about the history of the area, sharing lots of fun facts, stories, answering questions - he even has a laminated binder to help with the tour! And then he also had wonderful connections for food tastings and had organized everything ahead of time with the lunch restaurant so that we got to try many of the regions food highlights during our time with him from snacks to savories to desserts, including the history/significance for many of the foods! We would highly recommend working with Tomasz!
