I am a graduate from a Pedagogic Academy of Cracow with a Master's Degree in History. The link between history and everyday life has always fascinated me. I spent four years in The United States. This is where I have mastered my command of English. Upon my return to Cracow I decided to use it in speaking to foreigners about this city's history. I have always enjoyed many different cultures, and therefore, I would like others to enjoy mine as well. For the past 20 years I have been working as a licensed, English speaking guide and tour escort. I still remember all my guests from different countries, but first of all the friendly and recognizable Rick Steves (guidebook author). I hope you will enjoy my tours! I am a licensed Krakow City Guide Nr/Card No: PM/39/01 by Marshal of Voivodeship as well as an English speaking tour leader Nr/Card No: PW/203/2000 by Marshal of Voivodeship I have a certificate for driving service.

Marta is Wonderful! I searched all the guides and chose Marta for 3 different tours from Krakow. My sister and I appreciated her Knowledge of Polish history. She is very passionate about her knowledge and sharing it. At the last moment I asked Marta to change this tour up a bit and she willingly did so. We went to Czestochowa and then had a wonderful Pierogi lunch and returned to Krakow where she gave us a tour before returning us to our hotel. We talked, we laughed she treated us like family.

Fabulous experience with Marta on the tour to the castle and Black Madonna. She is fluent in English and so very knowledgeable. We had so many laughs throughout the day and I learned so much on Polish history. When I return I will sign up for a city tour with her and enjoy several hours learning more about Poland. Please make sure you check. Tickets are not included. FYI. A great experience and I highly recommend her tours. I wish I had taken more tours with her… next time:)

We had an amazing 5 days of tours with Claudiu! Because of Covid we had to keep changing the dates. I can sum up his tours up in one word… Outstanding! He was willing to change, accommodate, shift gears and was so knowledgeable… Not to mention his amazing van. We 6 had a wonderful time�� Well worth the money!!!!
