    Best way to tour Krakow
    Our tour with Aleksandra was the highlight of our trip to Krakow. The food and sights were great, getting to talk with our knowledgeable and affable guide was even better. We learned so much about Krakow, Poland and the Central European region, all while being treated to amazing local dishes. Outstanding in every way.

    Personalised and a great tour of the Old Town
    We are a family of 4 adults and thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Tomasz. He was knowledgeable, considerate and appeared to love sharing his home city with us. We appreciated his insights into Polish but especially Kraków history. We would thoroughly recommend him and this tour as you get to walk around a lot of the significant monuments and areas of the Old Town. We love the personalised look experience!

    Accommodating, cozy and convenient
    We really enjoyed the history behind the food and as well as the food. My favorite was the soup and the vodka tasting was lots of fun. We are very thankful Tomas was patient with our 5 kids.

    Krakow Food Tour with Tomasz
    Great tour in the lovely Old Town of Krakow. Tomasz was flexible about time, has excellent English, and was very well informed about the food, culture and history. After our tour, he sent us a list of the places and foods we sampled, as well as the Polish words we learned. Greatly enjoyed!

    Perfect tour
    Had a food tasting tour with Tomasz and it was without doubt the best tour we have ever done. Tomasz was very knowledgeable, the food he chose was perfect for us but most importantly he was such a nice person, we both said it was a pleasure spending time in his company and getting that all important local view of things

    Be careful
    Really very concerned about this organisation and would suggest anyone planning a tour be cautious. I’d been in touch to request a Private tour of Auschwitz and had a speedy response, all good and happy. Then I was advised the 70€ for my ticket had been paid and I could pay the balance, 380€ on the day. 450€??? I immediately requested the trip be cancelled, explained I was a seasoned traveller and then told, ‘it’s expensive because you want a private tour and that’s 200€’. None of this makes sense as private tours, I’ve since found out, are not available and it feels like a scam. I’ve since found a reputable company and paying just 45€. Perhaps there’s an error? But just advising caution.

    We would highly recommend our guide, Ewa.
    We arranged to visit Oskar Schindler's factory with a guide once we arrived at the museum. We paid to Ewa, our guide, directly, at the door. Her price was reasonable. Our group was small, 9 people. Ewa was very knowledgeable and very engaging. She shared with us not only facts about how Oskar Schindler saved 1000 Jews, but also fun facts about Spielberg's film and many facts about the invasion of Krakow by the nazis, and the beginning and end of Krakow's ghetto. We particularly enjoyed when she told us stories of her own family's experience. She was interested in our experience and knowledge too. We would recommend Ewa without doubt.

    Food Tour with Tomasz
    My sister, brother in law and i did a food tour with Tomasz in Krakow. It was one of the highlights of the trip. Tomasz was very knowledgeable, personable and interesting. We loved the dinner he selected and really enjoyed learning about the country, city and food from Tomasz. Would highly recommend him.

    Amazing guide, fascinating history & great food
    We had a great time on our tour with Tomasz in Krakow. We had asked Tomasz if we could combine food tasting with history on our walking tour of the Old Town area since we only had a couple of days in Krakow, and he did such a good job - it was perfect! He was super-knowledgeable about the history of the area, sharing lots of fun facts, stories, answering questions - he even has a laminated binder to help with the tour! And then he also had wonderful connections for food tastings and had organized everything ahead of time with the lunch restaurant so that we got to try many of the regions food highlights during our time with him from snacks to savories to desserts, including the history/significance for many of the foods! We would highly recommend working with Tomasz!

    Amazing Experience
    Tomasz is a wonderful guide full of cultural, historic, and food knowledge. We loved the tour and all the food tastings. We especially loved the visual aides Tomasz uses to share about culture and history. There is no way you can leave hungry after this experience!

    Wonderful Food Tour
    We had the most wonderful evening with Tomasz. He was so friendly, hugely informative about the history of Krakow and Poland and showed us some fabulous places to eat delicious food. And emailed us all the details of what we had eaten and where the same evening. The perfect start to our stay in Krakow. If I could give this tour six stars I would.

    Pleasant and informative tour
    Our host for this walk was Peter and we had a nice time strolling through the old city down some of the side streets that are off the beaten path. It was nice to talk to someone with a wider perspective on European affairs and the time seemed to go very quickly. Peter was a pleasant and informative host and we learned new things about the history of the city and Poland itself. Excellent value and an enjoyable evening.

What an introduction to Krakow, we loved it! Ewa was a fantastic guide, whose extensive knowledge made our morning both interesting and fun. We were left thinking we needed more time in Krakow as Ewa pointed our so many interesting sights. We loved the personal style of the tour and would recommend Ewa to anyone.

Tomasz is a fantastic tour guide. He showed me the sights I was interested in seeing and shared some of the stories behind them. It was a tailored-made tour, and he proved to be incredibly knowledgeable and easy to chat with. I would definitely book another tour with him. And I’m looking forward to booking through “with Locals” now that I’ve discovered them :). THANK YOU, Tomasz!

Tomasz was everything we expected from a "With Locals" guide. He met us on time and took us around the town giving us exactly what we wanted in terms of local knowledge and experience. The time we spent with him gave us an insight into the history and geography of the town and was definitely time well spent. Tomasz was engaging and very pleasant, willing to answer any and all questions. He also provided us with several recommendations for restaurants and café's which we took up with over the course of our stay. Highly recommended.
This trip was actually taken in Dec 2019 but pre 2020 reviews are no longer shown and we felt it only fair that good reviews are retained.
We love the "With Locals" Service and use it whenever possible.

We highly recommend this tour. Tomasz was great in outlining the history of Krakow and Poland, plus he intertwined other fun facts of the area. He even took us to a local market which was a great way to start the tour. Great value.

It was a real pleasure to meet Maya and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Excellent knowledge with stories that brought places and people "to life", lovely personality and great sense of humour. I've been on many tours, with guides, throughout the world and Maya is amongst the best.

We spent an excellent morning with Tomasz.From the first meeting he was an absolute delight. His knowledge of Krakow was fabulous and we learned lots about this lovely city. He was friendly and answered all our questions patiently. I would thoroughly recommend this walking tour of a beautiful place especially if you get Tomasz as your guide.
