Step by Step

Get to know and learn all about the history of the ancient city of Krakow, in Poland, thanks to this completely private tour. Specifically, you will spend about 2 hours exploring the streets of the old town and the famous Jewish quarter. For this, you will be accompanied by a tour guide, not just any old guide, but an accredited history professor. Your guide will be a PhD student, so he will pass on his passion for history to you and your companions.

Krakow is a city with a lot to tell. First of all it was a medieval city, so walking through the old town is like being transported back in time. During your tour you will get to know this old town, as well as the famous Jewish quarter, the Kazimierz district. This district was the centre of the Jewish community from the 14th century until the Second World War.

Because of this, Krakow was one of the major cities affected by the Second World War, which is why you will also learn a lot of stories related to it during the tour. In addition, Krakow was also the city where many of the scenes from the film 'Schindler's List' were filmed, which you will be able to see with your own eyes during the tour.

Don't forget to visit the Zablocie district where you will find Oskar Schindler's factory, where enamelware was made, but which is nowadays a holocaust museum.
