Overview of your Krakow tour

Poles and Jews have common history for almost 1000 years. We say in Poland there is no history of Poland without the Jews and there is no history of Jews without Poland. Before WWII Poland had the biggest Jewish Population in Europe. In Krakow before Second World War there lived around 67 thousand Jews. Let me invite you for my "Jewish Krakow" private tour. First part of this tour is walk around Kazimierz, famous Krakow old Jewish district. This part of the tour I will present you Krakow Synagogues, old Jewish cemetery, Jewish ritual bath building-the greater mikveh. I will introduce you to history of Jews in Poland and Krakow. The second part of this tour is the site of Krakow Jewish Ghetto established by nazi germans during WWII. We will be on Heroes of the Ghetto Square, Eagle Pharmacy and walk to see Jewish Ghetto Walls remnants.

I very much enjoyed my tour with Christopher. Each time we have used tours by locals we are quite impressed with the knowledge of each guide of his/her country. We will continue to use tours by locals anywhere we can. Christopher is an organized guide and likeable person.

We hired Chris to give us a tour of the Jewish Quarter and Jewish Ghetto. He feels the history and clearly conveys this to his clients. Very knowledgeable, very personable. You can't go wrong with Chris as your guide.

I was very pleased with all aspects of this booking. The Holy Week celebrations in Poland meant scheduling adjustments and some creative thinking. Christopher proved particularly adept in promptly proposing alternatives; his immediate, clear, and clever responses to my questions were greatly appreciated. The tour itself was informative, well-paced, and efficiently planned. As one would expect, Christopher was prompt, courteous, and provided first-rate service. I appreciate such a worry-free experience.
