Hello, my name is Aga. I was born in Krakow and since then it's been my place on Earth. I graduated from the Japanese Philology at the Jagiellonian University. I used to work in a big corporation but one day I decided to quit my job. I signed up to the course for the professional guides. After I had passed all difficult exams, I got a certificate and the badge with the coat of arms of Kraków and number 333. My dreams came true and now I do the best job ever. I show people around my home town. Some say I'm lucky because I do what I love. That's right. I've guided hundreds of groups, couples, singles, children, families, company workers. Some of them became my friends and still come back to Kraków. Some post their reviews and comments on my Facebook page, some send emails… so many warm words… It makes me a happy guide. You will certainly fall in love with this charming town. As I do. Every day. Can't wait to meet You here!! See You soon! Licensed Krakow City Guide Licensed guide at The Oskar Schindler's Factory and The Eagle Pharmacy Licensed guide at The Rynek Underground Museum Licensed guide at the Wawel Cathedral Licensed guide at the Dominicans Museum I do not guide in Auschwitz Museum and Memorial nor in Wieliczka Salt Mine. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Krakow tour

This is a walking tour for those who want much sightseeing in less time. It'll be the story of two towns and two nations: Poles and Jews. Neighbors for ages. We are going to walk from Kraków to Kazimierz that used to be a town just 200 years ago. Now it's a city district. You will see highlights of both places and look at them from two perspectives. Charming streets, churches, synagogues, stories and anecdotes will enjoy You. Two towns so close but so different. It'll be a long day but it's worth being spent so actively, especially when You do not have much time for sightseeing. For some, it is a challenge and they may feel like champions at the finish :-) For some, it is a piece of cake :-) How about You? :-)

Aga was a wealth of knowledge and charm! As someone in the tourism industry myself, I work with a lot of guides internationally. Aga has the rare gift of “the right stuff”… a fine balance and perfect blend of historical expertise combined with a warm and engaging personality. Aga brought her city to life for me and my wife. We couldn’t ask for more, and I highly recommend her services!

Great tour! Agnieszka was knowledgeable and personable. She and her family came from Krakow which made the tour more authentic. We saw a great deal of Krakow which was perfect for our short stay. I highly recommend her and this tour.

Ms. Agnieszka Szafraniec is an incredible guide. Her command of English is remarkable, and her knowledge of Poland's and Krakow's history is impressive. She is thorough, patient, accommodating and kind, and it was such a great pleasure to spend the day with her and learn so much about the City's history.

Our family (9 people) had very interesting and full of experiences day. Agnieszka is very competent guide which showed us Krakow (Wawel, Old Town and Jewish District). She knows the history, loves her city and is able to tell the stories which find the place in each persons heart. Everyone from our family took something to remember. I would definitely recommend her as a guide if you are planning a trip to Krakow.
