The Free tour in the Old city and Wawel castle with Kris on 30.09.2022 was amazing!!!! I recommend this trip and especially Kris as a guide. He has an excellent knowledge about the history of Krakow, with interesting details, professional attitude, amusing humour and experience that he shared with us. I really enjoyed the tour so much, that I participated in the second one in Jewish quarter, the same day. Actually six people from the first tour joined for the second one. Kris tells story that captivates you and makes you better understand what this country has been through.
