My name is Alex and I would like to invite you to Krakow, where I was born and with which my whole life is connected. For twenty years I have been working in tourism as a licensed guide and tour escort. My hobby is to read all kinds of books, but above all, those that present the history of Poland and Europe. I am really satisfied when I can present my knowledge and experience that I have gained in recent years. Poland is a country with over 1, 000 years of history and an exceptional cultural heritage. The diversity of historical places, beautiful landscapes and great Polish cuisine encourage people from all over the world to visit this country. I am glad that you have decided to visit Poland as well. I would like to show you the most beautiful places in Krakow and its surroundings. Krakow is a city with a rich history and a multicultural heritage. You will never regret the time spent visiting this city. Of course, I will be happy to accompany you as your private guide. In the vicinity of Krakow is difficult to count the number of places that are really worth a visit during a half or full day trip. Take only the Wieliczka Salt Mine or Auschwitz-Birkenau, which together with the Krakow's Old Town is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. In addition, after just 2 hours of driving you can find yourself in the Polish Tatras mountains with such a different culture and taste that characterizes Polish highlanders. There are also options for pilgrims who would like to follow the footsteps of Pope John Paul II. I invite you to visit all these places with me. We can do one trip together or combine a multi-day route tailored to your expectations. I am also open to traveling with you to other places that are not listed on my trip list. I am looking forward to receiving your message. I provide all trips with my own comfortable, air-conditioned cars (Mercedes Vito and Audi Q5). Guide license no. PM/379/2000 Tour Leader license no.

The Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa is a famous Polish shrine to the Virgin Mary and one of the most important places of pilgrimage for Catholics all over the world. It is also an important place for me because, like many Poles, I grew up in a house with a copy of the Black Madonna from Częstochowa on the wall. I would like to take you there so that you can understand why this particular painting and this monastery are so important. You will have the possibility to have a private tour in the interior of the monastery provided by a local Pauline monk who will explain to you all stories related to this holy place. After the tour will be also possible to take part in a holy mass in front of the Black Madonna painting (please tell me during booking of this tour whether you are interested). Jasna Gora Monastery is a big piece of important Polish history, therefore it invites not only the followers of the religion.
