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.

Overview of your Krakow tour

Karzimierz use to be an independent town. Karzimierz soon became a center of Jewish community and Jewish community was growing fast. In 16th century it became the largest in Europe. At the beginning of 19th century Karzimerz was incorporated into Krakow. By 1939 the city was home to nearly 60. 000 Jews. During the communist rule was a forgotten place on Krakow's map. Actually Karzimierz is a tourist attraction with the seven large synagogues. It is the biggest such complex in Europe, comparable with the Jewish monuments in Prague.

Marta was a wonderful guide. This tour made my time in Krakow so much easier. She was even able to give me advice for some small traveling hiccups (I came with the wrong power adapter). Highly recommend.

I hired Marta to be my private guide for 3 days while I was in Krakow. I found her to be very friendly, knowledgeable and reliable. Her historical knowledge of the area was most impressive. As a woman traveling in a foreign country alone, I felt very safe and was at my destinations on time and without issues. I highly recommend Marta!!
