Call me Zee, unless you'd prefer my Polish name - Zbigniew. Tough one, isn't it? If Polish seems like the Mandarin of Europe to you do not worry, I am fluent in both English and Mandarin Chinese so you will learn all about the Royal City of Krakow in a language most familiar to you. I was born in this beautiful city almost 30 years ago. Growing up surrounded by sites of many important historical events has left me with deep appreciation for Krakow's beauty and its importance on the national and international level. Learn the history of this historical capital of the Republic of Poland as well as the history of the country itself. Retrace the steps of Oscar Schindler (did he compile the famous Schindler's list?) and find out what the lives of Polish and Jewish people looked like during the Second World War. Get to know why Krakow survived both of the World Wars and why is it one of the better preserved cities of WWII. A trip to the 'young country of Poland' is sure to surprise you. Find out why I refer to it as a 'young country' even though you will see a plethora of centuries old, historical sites all around you. No matter how much time you will have in the Royal City of Krakow it may always prove too little. Allow me to accompany you while you enjoy the sites of this magnificent settlement in a manner most suited to your needs, interests and schedules. During my time as a guide I have gathered countless feedback for my tours which mentions that I am a very organized, knowledgable and passionate guide however I will leave that to your judgement. I am a well traveled, internationally educated individual. Due to my experience I am always able to connect with my groups and find common grounds upon which to build our experiences together. I have operated walking tours, Segway tours as well as bike tours. I am confident to be able to provide a fully personalized, well-though-out experiences. My entire offer is fully flexible and 100% adjustable. I am more than happy to accommodate any requests you might have. I cater to all of your needs, interests and wishes. I am looking forward to meeting you in person!
