The artistic pulse of Krakow resonates in the Kazimierz District, once the historic Jewish Quarter.

Travel tips for Krakow Tours
Krakow is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit depends on your preferences. Summer (June to August) is the high season with warm weather and vibrant festivals, but it can be crowded. Spring (April to June) and early autumn (September to October) offer pleasant weather and fewer crowds. Winter (December to February) is magical with Christmas markets, but it can be cold, and some attractions have shorter opening hours
Must-visit places in Krakow include the historic Old Town, Wawel Castle, Kazimierz (the Jewish Quarter), and the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial.
When dining in Krakow, don’t miss trying traditional Polish dishes like pierogi, kielbasa, and bigos. Explore local restaurants and cafes in the Old Town and Kazimierz for an authentic culinary experience.
Pack layers, comfortable walking shoes, and an umbrella if you’re visiting during the rainy season. Don’t forget an adapter for European electrical outlets and some Polish złoty for small purchases.
