Cześć! I'm Tomasz, a licensed local guide in Krakow since 2017 - and someone who truly believes that the best way to experience a city is through its stories. With a Master’s degree in International Affairs and a deep passion for history, especially World War II and Polish heritage, I offer more than just dates and facts - I connect the past with the present in a way that's engaging, meaningful, and tailored to you. I’ve guided travelers from all over the world through Krakow’s charming streets, hidden corners, and powerful historical sites. Whether it’s a deep-dive into our complex 20th-century history or a relaxed city walk full of anecdotes and fun facts, I adjust the pace, depth, and focus of every tour to your interests. If you’re looking for a guide who’s knowledgeable, easygoing, and genuinely excited to show you Krakow through local eyes - I’d love to be your host!

Overview of your Krakow tour

No visit to Kraków can be considered complete without experiencing the wealth of local cuisine flavours! Join me for a 3-hour culinary stroll with an experienced local guide and Polish cuisine connoisseur. On this tour, we will taste more than 10 of the most delicious and traditional Polish dishes and snacks. Some of them are known all over the country (the famous pierogi), but others, such as the obwarzanek (a type of pretzel) are available exclusively in Kraków! I will introduce you to several local restaurants, patisseries, and cafes so that we can enjoy excellent food in a private group and learn about Polish traditions or customs connected with the preparation and consumption of the tasted dishes. Polish culinary culture is, of course, not just about food - the tour includes various types of high-quality Polish vodkas tasting. The culinary excursion takes place in Krakow's Old Town, and in its course, I also tell you about the most beautiful landmarks we pass along the tour route.

Your Krakow tour itinerary

We will meet next to Piotr Skarga statue in Mary Magdalene Square (plac Marii Magdaleny). The culinary walk in Krakow includes local snacks tasting, two types of Polish vodka, a complete lunch consisting of starters, soup and a second course, and a unique Polish dessert. There is definitely no need to eat anything before the tour, let alone afterwards. It is possible to organise a vegetarian tasting just please let me know in advance. I'm not able to accommodate ad hoc requests on the way as I make all the arrangements with restaurants in advance. To mygreat regret, I am unable to accommodate people on vegan, gluten-free and lactose-free diets. If your group is bigger than 8, please let me know - it's possible to arrange the tour for larger groups as well!
