We did multiple tours with Bartek : from the horrors of Auschwitz-Birkenau to discovering the delightful city that is Krakow and the Jewish quarter ; hearing about the history, the impact of the Nazi invasion and also the lovely folk tales /myths surrounding various churches and buildings. Bartek is a font of information and he delivers it in enough detail to keep one engaged. He is amazingly flexible and will do what it takes to make the tour worthwhile. We found it really easy to hang out with him and talk about lots of issues and life in Poland. He absolutely made our time in Krakow so much more interesting and fun and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending his services. Our time in Krakow would have been half as interesting if we had not had Bartek with us. Just do it!

Wonderful afternoon exploring Old Town
We are a family of 4 adults and thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Tomasz. He was knowledgeable, considerate and appeared to love sharing his home city with us. We appreciated his insights into Polish but especially Kraków history.
We would thoroughly recommend him and this tour as you get to walk around a lot of the significant monuments and areas of the Old Town.
We love the personalised look experience!
