Private Krakow City Tour, Old Town And Jewish District In One Day

Our tour guide was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. The tour was well worth the cost and the history we learned was amazing.

We were in Krakow for 5 days and chose Chris to provide our tours. He is an excellent guide , friendly, very approachable and extremely knowledgeable. We went on a 5 hour city tour which took in all the main sights. It was a superb experience. We also booked a tour with him to Krakow and Birkenau. He drove us there and booked a Private Tour Guide for the location. Everyone visiting Krakow must go here. Chris recommended local delicacies including potato pancakes with goulash and tasty local cakes. If you are visiting Krakow I would highly recommend Chris as your guide. He is one of the best guides I have had on a city break.

Krystopher was beyond excellent— he was informative and was well wealth of historical information. He was personable. He took his time and he had really good stories to tell rhat were interesting — he knew the background about places that we saw and was thorough. We saw everything in the old town everything in Kazimierz. I would highly recommend requesting him as your tour guide.

True professional. Knew his history. Well explained all the places visited. He told us stories relating to the place. Answered all our questions. Very friendly, well spoken. Also recommended other places to visit, shops and restaurants . Chris took his time no rush. I would 100% recommended chris.

This was an excellent and comprehensive tour of the main square, old town and the jewish district. Our guide, Christoph, was friendly and full of knowledge. The tour was well paced with time for pictures and questions. We often do private tours and the quality of the tour guides can range from bad to excellent. Chris was excellent and even modified the end of our tour to accommodate the start time of an afternoon tour. I would highly recommend this tour!

Patient knowledgeable guide who answered lots of questions. I think if I were to go again that I would ask for more time in the Jewish quarter and take my guide out yo lunch so we could try some Jewish cuisine!

Chris was the perfect guide to introduce us to Krakow. He kept an engaging conversation going the entirety of the 5 hour tour, and knew detailed backgrounds for every stop we made through the city. It was obvious Chris prides himself on knowing more than just the basic highlights you can get on any tour, and this pays off in a tour that provides more information than I could have possibly hoped for. We were on a weeklong tour of multiple cities in Europe, and this is the one tour we took which really stuck out as being of exceptional quality. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Krakow.

Andrew is a great guide for Krakow. He is very knowledgeable about the city, polite and has a good sense of humor. If you are looking for a Krakow Old Town and Jewish Quarter tour, you cannot go wrong with Andrew!

My wife and I are big fans of walking tours so we have taken/done many. Mostly good, very rarely bad, rarely exceptional. Which leads me to our tour with Christopher. In a word, exceptional. Christoph is engaging, fun, and encyclopedic in his knowledge of Poland and Krakow. It’s the nuances and smaller details that so often enrich an experience, and that was true for us on our 5 hour tour with Christoph. More importantly, he is flexible. While he had not originally planned for us to visit a temple and cemetery in the Jewish area, we expressed interest in doing so. It was easily a 30 minute digression from what he had planned, but he was able to adjust. This turned out to be one of our favorite parts of the tour, and we were amazed at not only his knowledge of Jewish history but also his knowledge of this temple and cemetery. And for us who are not Jewish, we learned so much in so short a time. And that sums up the whole experience. We chose Christoph based on prior reviews we read. He was as great as advertised. And when we parted, we both felt we had made a new friend.

Our guide, Christopher, was outstanding. His English was very good and his walking pace was very easy to follow. His knowledge of the city and the history of the places we passed was amazing. The money for the 5 hour tour was well worth it. He picked us up promptly in front of our AIRBNB.

Christopher was an excellent guide! He took his time explaining the history and current events of Poland, while showing us all around the old city and Jewish quarter. The tour was 5 hours, plus a nice break at a lovely cafe/bookstore. Highly recommend this tour; we had a great time!

Wonderful way to see the city and learn of its history. Our guide, Chris, was friendly and knowledgeable in equal measure. His passion for his city shone through, so much so that we’ve already decided we’ll be returning as there’s far too much to see and do in just 4 days. When we do return, we’ll be booking Chris again, for sure. Thanks, Chris, for sharing your city with us. Julie and Imogen 😊

We had a great time with Chris! He was like the story teller who brought Krakow to life. At the end of the tour, you will develop an attachment to the city like no other. He made things so comfortable for my family and I would definitely recommend him for my friends and family

If you need incredibly knowledgeable guide to lead you through Krakow , look no further ! My husband and I spent 5 hours with Chris learning about history of Krakow and loved every minute of it. He took us to the most interesting places, gave food recommendations and gave us insights that only local guide can provide. Incredible!!!!

We did the 5hr full Krakow city walking tour with Khris our guide on our 1st morning of our city break just to learn about the beautiful city. Khris was very knowledgeable and delivered the information well in the English language. The time soon passed and was pleasantly easy walking. We even stopped off for a coffee break in a little restaurant recommended by Khris. We included some light lunch whilst we walked to keep up the energy 💪 The tour does not include food or drink so make sure you have some liquids with you.

It was a fantastic Tour with a fantastic Tour-guide. Chris is the best guide I have ever met: punctual, great competence, great culture, friendly. On my next trip to Krakow I will definitely look for a tour with him I highly recommend him !!!

First time in Krakow and so glad we decided on a private tour with Chris. He was so knowledgeable and made everything easy and interesting. I would highly recommend him and his services.

We had such a great time with Christopher - we were astounded by his knowledge and enthusiasm. We only had two nights in Krakow and he tailored our time there brilliantly. We got a really good feel for the city and he was so helpful. I would highly recommend Christopher to look after you should you wish a guide/advisor whilst in the city.

Great tour guide very knowledgeable and customized the tour to our own interests. Was very thorough a lot of walking but worth every minute!

We had an absolutely great tour with Chris in Krakow. We had already been in the city for a few days but he showed us places we probably would not have found on our own. He shared all kinds of interesting information about the history of the city and modern-day Krakow. It was a pleasure spending time with someone who so clearly loves his work and getting to meet new people. From our very first email contact, Chris was incredibly responsive and helpful in setting up excursions in and around Krakow. He's a wonderful resource and will help you to plan a very special trip. We highly recommend working with Chris. Thanks for all your efforts and kindness - we loved our time in Krakow!

I was able to ask plenty of questions and my guide had the answers, assistance with making purchases at local flea market, tons of knowledge shared by a kind invested guide.

After several times visiting Krakow, we finally decided to do a guided tour of the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter. So glad we booked with Christopher. He's a very polite and knowledgeable guide, answering the large variety of questions we had. He tailored the tour as we were walking to ensure we were seeing sites and areas that we weren't so familiar with based on our previous time in Krakow. He was also very accommodating when we needed to take a coffee and lunch break. We plan to book future tours with Christopher when we visit again. Highly recommended.

Christopher, our guide, was the best part of the tour. His knowledge was complete and he cared deeply about the history of his city. We experienced the events through his and his family's experiences and it was truly eye-opening. He also treated us like we were friends, not customers.

Great tour with Krzysztof (Chris) who was extremely knowledgeable, polite and interesting. The 7 hours flew by and I would highly recommend using him.

My family and I went on a 5 hour tour with Christopher on a very snowy Saturday in December. It was a wonderful tour, walking the Old town, St Mary’s, Wavel Hill and Jewish Quarter on a snowy afternoon is just the way I wanted to see and hear about Krakow. Christopher is extremely knowledgable and could answer any questions . I especially enjoyed the history of the Jewish quarter, and St Mary’s church. With so much history in Poland it can be difficult keeping who’s who straight. Christopher explained well. We are glad we opted for the private tour, I recommend it.

Very informative guide who tailored the information to our interests. Good tour around both old town and the Jewish quarter

Very informative tour with lots of history. The Jewish district is mostly run down due to what happened during WW2 but it's still interesting to see. The old town is beautiful and lots of great places to take pictures. Krystof will customize to what your want to see 😊

Kristof was very knowledgeable and we had a great time with him. The tour was very thorough and we walked a lot. It was a warm day so we stopped a couple times for drinks. Definitely recommend

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our first full day in Krakow with Chris as our guide in the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter. He was kind and a wealth of information. It was our good fortune to spend our second day with him on the Wooden Churches tour. We highly recommend these tours! Chris is a pleasure to be with and aware of his clients' expectations and does his utmost to fulfill them. He has a can-do attitude and is flexible with the scope of the tour.

I'm rating Christopher 5 stars, because the system doesn't allow 6 stars! I had the most amazing experience touring Krakow with Christopher. I was mesmerized by his vast knowledge and phenomenal personality. His grasp of every detail in general and Jewish history is breathtaking. Our tour was also very well planned out. Christopher understood what is important and interesting to me, and spent the perfect amount of time at each site to enable us to cover a lot. I highly recommend hiring Christopher for anyone interested in the general history of Krakow, and for anyone interested in the Jewish history of the city. You will have an amazing and memorable time – just like I did!

This tour was incredible! Chris is such a lovely guy and extremely knowledgeable. This was our first time in Krakow and it was a brilliant thing to start the trip with, so we could learn about the city and get our bearings. The tour was amazing and we learnt so much about the city and it's history. Would definitely recommend, it's a must!

Our guide was Krzysztof His knowledge of krakow and Kraków’s history was just phenomenal Nothing fazed him , all the questions we asked …he knew the answers and was very happy to share his knowledge with us We had an unforgettable day which ended all too quickly A wonderful day

This tour was amazing! It was our first time in Krakow and we just arrived and was worried it would be too much as we arrived at our hotel just 2 hours before the tour started. We are so glad we went ahead because it ended up being the best part of our trip! After a quick chat with Christopher explaining what we was looking to get out of the tour he tailor made the perfect introduction for us, we wanted to learn how to find the the landmarks, museums and other points of interest and he made it very easy for us to remember. The 3 hours passed by so fast as we learned so many interesting facts and so much history about the beautiful town of Krakow. It was such good value for a private tour and really felt like we had vip treatment. We both loved the tour itself and because of this tour we saved so much time the following two days knowing exactly where we wanted to visit, where to book tickets for museums and useful information that we would of lost a lot of time figuring out on our own. Because of this tour we was able to visit some very cool places like the armoury, royal apartments & cathedral. Chris was very friendly, and we had some very interesting conversations. We felt very welcome the whole time. It was a lovely way to spend my birthday A BIG BIG thank you Christopher & our next visit to Krakow we would love to take another tour with you again! All the very best to you :)

We really enjoyed our tour - Chris was very accommodating to us (myself my husband and three very small children / babies) He took the time to explain everything really well, he has a great depth of knowledge, we learnt a lot about krakow and really enjoyed it. Thanks Chris!

It was an amazing and memorable experience. I really enjoyed the tour and learned many new things about the city and the history. Thank you Krzysztof!

Chris our tour guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. We enjoyed having him has our guide. He also made useful suggestions for restaurants and other attractions in Krakow, Splyw Dunajcem and Zakopane. Would definitely recommend him to other tourists while visiting Krakow.

We did 4 tours with Chris, with the city tour and jewish district as the 1st one. He is super knowledgeable and super patient with us, especially with our 2 year old daughter. Mask is actually not required outdoor in Krakow, but before the tour, he politely asked us if we wanted him to wear a mask during the tour. We were very keen in Krakow and Poland history and kept asking him questions and he always had the answers to all our questions. Towards the end, our tour got a little extended and he was fine with it. He is genuinely a nice guy. Super recommended! Super dobry!

Our tour of the Old Town and Jewish District with Chris was amazing. We walked for hours while Chris pointed out so many interesting things and answered our endless questions. We were shattered by the end of the tour but felt having that personal tour guide was so beneficial as you learn so much more. We have watched all your film recommendations since being home! We booked Chris for airport transfers, visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau, Salt mines and town tour. We visited in February 2020. Chris is very reasonably priced and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a more personal service.

Chris was very knowledgeable and informative. He answered all of our questions and than some. He was able to alter the tour when we requested the view other aspects of Krakow.

Chris was not able to provide a tour, but he contacted a friend. Her tour was informative, though she cut it short.

My wife and I spent a fantastic day with Chris. He gave us a great historical overview of the city including a deep dive into the Jewish quarter. You will not go wrong with Chris as you guide.

We had a great day spent walking around Krakow with Chris. He created a great itinerary based on our interests in combining both the old town and Jewish quarter. He also pre-booked tickets to the Schindler's factory tour to save time. Chris is very knowledgeable about Krakow and the history of the area and also local insights and tips. It was a perfect start in Krakow for our family group of 3 adults and 3 pre-teens. We had a last minute request to change the start time and he was able to adjust the itinerary. Communication with Chris was easy by email and later via WhatsApp. I would highly recommend Chris's services.

What a great experience. I wish I could give it more than five stars. Chris was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. Really provided us with a lot of knowledge and history of Krakow. Highly recommended!!

Had an excellent tour today with Chris -he was extremely knowledgable and passionate about Kraków and its history and it was a very enlightening day. He drive us to the Jewish quarter and on to Schindlers factory and also guided us around the exhibition . We would thoroughly recommend him to anyone visiting Kraków .

Our guide was Chris. He was outstanding and thoughtful of my husband's walking abilities. I would recommend this for anyone in Krakow. Be aware, there is a lot of walking - which is the best way to learn any city.

I spent a weekend in Krakow with my husband and found Chris through searching trip advisor - he was easy to liase with via e-mail, getting back to us promptly to answer any questions and queries before travelling out to Krakow. Chris was very professional throughout our walking tour of the old town and Jewish quarter and extremely knowledgable and friendly throughout. Chris also drove us out to Aushwitz, where he had bought our tickets in advance on our behalf, and waited for us until we were ready to return. All in all a very nice man and thoroughly recommend him for any tours and trips you may require.

Very good tour. It was long but it just meant that we got to hear more interesting history about the city. Our guide, Kristofer (wrong spelling but can't spell in Polish), was very nice and extremely knowledgeable about the city's as well as Jewish history. He welcomed questions and even asked about us during the walkway to the next destination. He was also very docile and could change the planning if there was any part we wanted to be on longer and know more about. Highly recommend.

We had a guided city tour for two with Christoph. He took a lot of time and we were able to learn many details, as well as a good overview of the beautiful city, the old part and the Jewish quarter. The four hours were not too long! We were there at the end of November, it was very cold but we took a little break to drink tea and warm up. Christoph is a very good leader with an enormous knowledge. We would recommend this to anyone who goes to Krakow.
