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.

If you're looking for a tour guide to show you the Catholic pilgimage sites near Krakow, I highly recommend Marta Chmielowska. She was prompt, organized, knowlegable about Catholic Polish history, and has a warm, welcoming personality. Our tour with her was definitely a highlight of our European trip.

The tour was great. Marta pointed out places of interest as we were driving to our destination. She answered all of our questions and recommended things of interest for us. She was very knowledgeable. Would use her again if needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Marta on this tour. She was friendly, informative, efficient, and a very safe driver. She knew the town of Wadowice very well, and after the tours of the main church and John Paul museum, she took us to a cafe that served the best "Pope cake" I had during our vacation in Poland. At Kalwaria, after we toured the church, she drove us on to a good location on the grounds where we could explore some of the chapels. I highly recommend this tour and guide! Thank you, Marta.

Due to rain had to reverse touring sites for 9/1 & 9/2. Thoroughly enjoyed Wadowice and visiting Pope John Paul's hometown & having Pope cake. Liked the town to visit even if wasn't because of the Pope. Marta is a great guide.
