Kris the guide was warm, humorous, and informative. The route included numerous points of interest around the city and his detail brought them to life, without being physically demanding. We had a great time!

Excellent experience very knowledgeable tour guide - Chris was fantastic. Well organised. Enjoyed the coffee stop.
Such a great way to see Krakow! We loved this tour, our guide was engaging and balanced the history with a fun experience. Would highly recommend!
Mike was a great guide, engaging and knowledgeable. The bikes were well maintained and were set up individually. The tour was just the right length with a short break in the middle. Would recommend.
This was our second time to Krakow and I really wanted to explore the city on a bike. This tour did not disappoint. We covered the Square, old town, Jewish quarter and the castle - it took 4 hours but stopping at all the main attractions. We had a little break in between for a drink and then off we went again - it is such a lovely way to see the city and the cycle along the river is really beautiful - We would highly recommend this tour
Great fun for a non cyclist! Very informative and fab coffee/cake stop.
Michael was an awesome guide. Very pleasant person and went to the right pace to accommodate the are variance in the group.
The tour exceeded our expectations! Our tour guide Michael loves his city and was able to transfer this enthusiasm to our group. We gained insight into the history of this country in addition to the city of Krakow. I especially enjoyed learning about the Dragon of Krakow. The story could be taken metaphorically now in this day and age. For one thing, it explains the stuffed dragons I saw at the market. I feel like an insider. This tour is definitely worth your time.
This was a wonderful experience. Kris was a fantastic guide, so knowledgeable, & nothing was too much trouble. He was very patient with a group of 50yr olds. Would highly recommend this trip to find out about the history of Poland.
Very informative, definitely worth every penny. Lots of historical information and a non-judgemental presentation of historical facts
This is a must. Fab tour, saw loads. Michael was a great guide. attentive, enthusiastic and engaging Highly recommended Will probably do it again one day!!!
Not a lot of depth in the topics but well presented and the bike ride was gentle and easy. Saw lots of the main sights of the city
Michael was very informative, easy to follow on the bikes and kept the group together. We were given an easy to follow history of Krakow and saw the many different areas and attractions. Great way to tour the city.
Great, great guide and a fantastic way to see Krakow and learn a lot!
This tour, with Michael as our guide, was wonderful. The staff were very attentive when adjusting the bikes for our individual needs before we left. There were about 12 of us which I thought was a perfect size. The bikes were in great condition with comfortable seats and a good basket on the front. Michael is both a great bike leader and an excellent history guide. We took a 20 minute break about halfway through. I highly recommend this tour.
My brother and I joined this tour today. The e-bikes that we requested were very comfortable and of good quality and they also gave us helmets. The leader Kris was great. He spoke fluent English and was very knowledgable in all aspects of the city and its history. The tour lasted 3 1/2 hours and we covered all of the city highlights.
Really great bike tour covering right across Krakow. Michael our guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and took us on a great sightseeing tour of the significant areas across the city. Would definitely recommend as a great way to not only learn the history of Krakow but to see the city and districts too.
Great bike tour - we went all over Krakow with a local named Thomas who was very knowledgable. I would highly recoemmend this tour again - best to get an electric bike for best coverage. Also ask for Thomas - he was fantastic
Chris was a fabulous tour guide of his beautiful city of Krackow. His knowledge was excellent and made me feel very welcome. Highly recommended Chris.
Our guide, Michael, was excellent. Very informative, friendly and good humoured. The ride was also enhanced by the beautiful weather!
Michael was an amazing guide who was knowledgeable about a variety of sites and historical events. This was my first bike tour, and I enjoyed being able to see more sites than I would have on a walking tour.
A very informative tour of Krakow. Bikes were comfortable and easy to ride mostly on the flat so no need for an electric bike.
Brilliant tour Chris tour guide was excellent very knowledgeable and humerous
This was our first visit to Krakow. The Old Town is magnificent...stunningly beautiful and full of life. Our bike tour was fantastic, thanks to our guide Tomas. He as very knowledgable about the city and the region as well has notable historical figures and the history of the area. His English was perfect...no issues with a language barrier. He was engaging and humorous and eager to take questions. The pace of the tour was perfect. We crossed the river and went by Oskar Schindler's Enamel factory and Tomas beautifully explained everything about Schindler and the factory. We returned after a total of about 3.5 hours. I'd give it a 6 out of 5 stars if I could!
This was a fantastic tour of Krakow. Our guide Kryz was really passionate and knowledgeable about his city and he was very engaging and friendly from start to finish. He is a super tour guide. My bike was top class really well maintained and ran very smoothly. The tour is very flat so it was almost effortless with the e bike. The stops on the tour were really interesting and I learned a lot about the history of the city . Overall it was money well spent and I have no hesitation in recommending this tour very highly.
Very insightful tour with a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. Great bikes and a good mix of sights, information and cycling
Great value tour with lots of history and relevance.
This tour was fantastic. Chris went way above. My wife wasn’t feeling so hot and he offered her several accommodations. As the tour started Chris quickly became a friend that you could ask anything of. And I probably asked 30 questions thru the day. He was knowledgeable and really enhanced my understanding. Plus he tailored the tour to the interests of the group to make sure everyone had a great time. Highly recommend.
Michael was an amazing guide! He knew so much about Krakow and could answer any questions we threw at him and lots more. He also picked up on what we were interested in (food😄) and added more info about that in response to our interests. Would definitely recommend this tour. It's the best way to get a feel for and learn about Krakow!
Experience was fantastic. Very knowleadgable guide. Great introduction to the city and its history. Crowd size was very good. Highly recommend!
Fantastic trip. Very informative and interesting. Michael (apologies if I spelt that wrong) had a great knowledge of the area but also great passion for his country and sharing the information with us.
A great 3 hours spent cycling around Krakow. Chris was knowledgeable about the city and its history and shared some fun facts. The bikes are comfy (no narrow seats!) and I felt perfectly safe cycling around the roads and lanes (cars give way to cyclists!). Definitely recommend!
Our guide Chris led us on a fantastically informative tour of the sights of the beautiful historic city. He made it fun with a lot of great local stories and his own experience of growing up in the city. Good bikes, easy riding and also time for a nice coffee break in the Jewish Quarter midway. Highly recommend.
Very good, Chris was great would recommend
This is a really great way to see much more in an afternoon than you can by walking around town. Our guide Chris was superb, and his local insights and knowledge of history gave us more than we would have found out on our own. If you're only here for the weekend we would highly recommend this tour option.
It was fun cycling through the city.
It was a wonderful way to see Krakow and get through the town much faster than by foot. We were even able to revisit some of the places at certain times that they told us about. Such as when the trumpet player plays the top of the hour in the Town square. Our guide was fantastic and spoke perfect English. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone!
Very informative and delivered in a friendly manner. I went there with my children. My older one (12) appreciated it too, so it is suitable for children too. We saw a couple of highlights of the city and learnt a lot about Cracow's history.
We were a group of 11 (adults and teens) from the UK, and our GetYourGuide bicycle tour of Kraków with Tomasz was simply excellent from start to finish. Tomasz’s knowledge of the city and its history is impressive, and he delivers it in a thoughtful, balanced way that presents events and facts fairly and clearly. His English is exceptional – precise, fluent and easy to follow – which made everything accessible and engaging for the whole group. What stood out most was how well he connected with our teenagers. He made a real effort to include everyone, kept the pace and conversation lively, and ensured no one felt left out. On top of that, he is a talented linguist who can switch comfortably between German, Polish and Dutch, which added another layer of professionalism and flexibility. We had an absolutely brilliant time cycling around Kraków with him and would not hesitate to recommend Tomasz as a guide. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, engaging and genuinely personable guide for a group tour in Kraków, book with Tomasz – you won’t be disappointed.
Great way to see the city, very informative, and also added a great local touch, so you can get to know the city and its people on a much deeper level. Would 100% recommend!
Kristof (Chris) was fantastic, so knowledgeable and passionate about history and the stories from his city. I'm a nervous cyclist in crowded areas but he did a fantastic job with pacing and patience, so we were able to cover a lot of ground and knowledge on the tour. His timings were perfect, allowing us to arrive at places at good times to enjoy things (the trumpet calls over the market square, etc). Much of the biking was through parks and designated bike lanes, which made me a lot more comfortable. We all appreciated that his tour was so informative, and very well nuanced and honest. Two adults, two kids, we all had a great time (even in the rain - and we were thoughtfully provided ponchos).
It was very beautiful. I went on this tour last year and I came back for it.Even though 3 hours might seem long, it is worth it and it doesn’t even feel that long. Chris is a very nice guy and he explained very well every story. I would definitely recommend this experience to others, it was amazing
Great day and way to explore the gorgeous Krakow, Micheal our tour guide was great, funny and very informative, a real nice guy. Woukd def recommend xx
The perfect experience to start out our time in Krakow. Our guide Michael was so informative and interesting. Tour was about 3 hours. Loved how it highlighted sites to come back to with the perfect amount of history of Poland from its origins, through WWII and beyond.

We had a great 3 hour tour with Michal. We were in a very small group of 6, which was nice. Michael was very knowledgeable and gave us loads of information about Krakow and the Jewish quarter. My only (small) criticism is that we weren't all given a bottle of water - this has been the norm on most other bike tours we've done over the last few years. Fortunately it was cloudy and not overly warm so it was ok but I think I'd have struggled if the sun had been beating down and it had been 30 degrees. We did stop for a 15 minute break though so were able to purchase water then. All in all though it was a really good tour and I would recommend.
The bike tour exceeded expectations. We had so much fun riding around the city safely, learning so much about Krakow and seeing the beautiful sights. The tour was so well timed with frequent learning stops, water breaks and time to get a cold lemonade! One of the best bits was the beautiful bridge with the figures on it. The guide Christopher was funny, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We enjoyed being part of a small group. Thank you so much we had the best time. The bikes are really easy to use and require very little effort to get going, even on this boiling hot day!
Very informative and engaging! Christopher was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. We covered many areas of the city and enjoyed it all!
It was an amazing experience. Our guide, Chris, was funny knowledgeable and helpful. The landmarks were great and gave us an incredible insight into the history of Poland .
We had a great tour with Kristoff - informative, good pacing, and nice bikes with a break in the middle for bathrooms and a snack - highly recommend!
