Margaret was a fantastic guide. Not only was she extremely knowledgable, her personalty and demeanor added immesurably to our day with her. Her english was wonderful and her conversations were extraordinably meaningful. I couldn't have asked for more.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time and our tours with Krzysztof. He is very friendly and easy to get to know. His knowledge and insight of all the places we visited was phenomenal; the city tour including our visit to Oscar Schindler's Factory Museum, the Salt Mine and during our drive to Auschwitz. We were especially impressed with all of his knowledge and details of the Jewish Quarter. We also enjoyed our casual conversations with "Christoph" about his family, politics, etc. That he also has a taxi license was very helpful as he could navigate the streets where other vehicles couldn't go and that kept us moving! His restaurant recommendations were excellent and much appreciated too. Thank you Christoph!

Christopher was terrific. He was so knowledgeable and made the history of Krakow come alive. Christopher was fascinating and engaging. We did a walking tour, and he kept it moving but we never felt rushed -- he paced the tour very well. I would highly recommend Christopher -- he is a Great tour guide.

Booking this tour with Christopher was one of the wisest travel decisions I've ever made and I've traveled a lot. I learned so much from him in the span of a few hours. Even a full day of pouring rain didn't ruin the experience! I will definitely be booking similar experiences in my future travels. Thank you again, Christopher, for a very worthwhile day.

We really enjoyed the visit with Chris, we had the opportunity to learn a lot about the history of Krakow and Poland. The visit to the Jewish cemetery next to the synagogue was very moving, as was the whole explanation of the ghetto. Chris left us with a great desire to return to Poland and visit other cities. We would definitely recommend him!
