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

I will be happy to take you the Salt Mines of Wieliczka with its unique and breathtaking underground tunnels, lakes, and chapels carved in salt in the late 13 th century. This site is included on the on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its historical value, but it also serves as a health resort to treat respiratory issues. Only three visits in the Salt Mine helped to cure my children's lung diseases. In the salt mine you have to join English group tour with a local guide.

Marta was extremely knowledgabe about both the Salt Mines and other features of the Krakow community. She was able to efficiently accomodate both our 8 year old daughter and 80 year old great Uncle, despite some late changes to our travel plans. We highly recommend her.

Marta took the effort to arrange two tours for us at about the same time. My wife took the abbreviated tour (which did not miss much) so she wouldn't have to climb down all the steps while my son and I took the regular tour. Marta spoke to the tour guides and made sure we were able to meet up at the end of the tour and come back up using the elevators together,. I commend Marta for going out of her way to customize this tour for us.

We had a wonderful time with Marta! She was well versed in the history of Krakow and was able to show us the highlights by both car and walking. She was flexible and patient and had a wonderful sense of humor.

Marta was our driver to the mine. But she is much more, she is informative, fun and flexible. She also ensured that we had an english-speaking guide and a restaurant that served traditional meals. I highly recommend both the Salt Mine tour and Marta as your driver host.
