Chose one of our walking tours around Krakow and discover the rich history of our home town - the historical and cultural capital of Poland. 
Walking tour I: Kazimierz - the best-preserved former Jewish quarter in Europe.

Krakow, Kroke in Yiddish, a city in which, prior to World War II, Jews constituted a quarter of all the inhabitants. During the war, the Jewish community was almost completely exterminated by the Nazi occupants. Our tour, following the traces of Jewish culture in Krakow, will allow you to gain a great insight into the past, present and future of the Polish Jews. 

Krakow is surrounded by the beautiful Krakowska - Czestochowska Valley. Join us on a biking trip through picturesque landscapes of rocky limestone, deep karst valleys, medieval ruins, and charming forests.

As a city of art and literature, Krakow is permanently inscribed in the history of Polish culture due to the many artists and authors it has produced. This tour is not simply a trip around famous monuments, but a journey enriched by literary and artistic works.

Krakow is home to a remarkable number of churches and monastic congregations, several of which are of immense importance to Polish Catholics. Our excursion is an overview of the history of the Poles’ faith, the history of Poland, and the personal history of the Polish pope and Saint - John Paul II.

Auschwitz has become a symbol of terror, genocide, and the Holocaust mostly for Jews, but also Poles and Gypsies. During the Second World War, it was the place where the Nazis murdered more than 1 million people. Nowadays, Auschwitz houses the biggest cemetery in the world, along with a memorial and state museum, allowing visitors to stand face to face with the harrowing history of the biggest Nazi extermination camp. 

About 10 kilometres east of Krakow stands Wieliczka - the home of a beautiful salt mine, which figures on UNESCO's 1st World List of Cultural and Natural Heritage since 1978. Discover the uniquely decorated historic underground chambers, shafts and caverns, all connected by 2 kilometers worth of passage, while we venture 135 meters underground.

An unforgettable meeting with the communist past within a period of the Polish People’s Republic. Absurdity, faults, successes of the communist authorities and the remains of the people’s fight for freedom define our trip. On the basis of Nowa Huta example, you will learn about real economic and social situations based on a new system of capitalism: unemployment, development opportunities, institution of the church, youth subcultures and more.

The noblest Pole of the 20th Century has been connected with Krakow and the surrounding area throughout his life. Our tour takes you to the places of his youth, priesthood, and the places connected to his time as a bishop, as well as covering the sites he visited during his pilgrimages to Poland. Our aim is to allow you to get to know, and connect with, the spiritual and religious culture of Poland and its people.

The pilgrimage tradition to Czestochowa dates back to the 16th century and is still popular. Every year, thousands of tourists travel to the sanctuary to visit the most important pilgrimage center in Poland. 

Poland has been the centre of Jewish life for centuries. Prior to 1939 it was inhabited by about 3.5 million Jews. The Second World War put an end to this integral rich culture and tradition. All that remains are the unique examples of the destroyed culture found in Shtetls - little Jewish villages prior to World War II. There are many shtetls left around Krakow. For our excursion, we have chosen shtetls with original synagogues, cemeteries and architecture. 
Route: Krakow - Dzialoszyce - Pinczow - Chmielnik - Szydlow - Krakow
