About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Janet M0 contributionsLoved itWe really enjoyed our boat tour it was very relaxing watching the sights !the views of the castle were fab along with the Wawel dragonWritten October 30, 2024
- Connector125133905770 contributionsNothing to see from the riverSad reality is that there’s nothing to see from the river - very dull, total waste of time. If you want a city tour, choose a bus.Written July 22, 2024
- Chris_RF2144YH0 contributionsStandard cruise. No frillsWas an ok cruise. The prerecorded commentary was very monotone and wasn’t really selling the different sights and to be fair, there wasn’t a lot of information given either. It was a nice cruise which passed an hour of the day, but not one I’d probably push others to do.Written July 19, 2024
- 777rehanas0 contributionsNot enough information!The boat trip was good, the weather was great and the views were lovely. The commentary left a lot to be desired! Hardly any commentary, but when there was, the information added nothing to what we were looking at. It was dull, uninformative and unfortunately, spoiled the trip for my husband and I. Had I known it was going to be so poor, I would have brought my guidebook and found out for myself. We didn't find the guys at the Arcadia very helpful. We didn't know where to board the boat and they gave us no information. It was quite by chance, when I was desperately trying to shade from the sun, that we fell upon the correct boat. Not a brilliant experience, but could be improved with more attention to detail.Written July 1, 2024

- Haze E0 contributionsRelaxing river tourLovely relaxing trip on the river. There were only 2 of us but they still ran the ride. The commentary was very informative & I would recommend this as it was a lovely quaint boatWritten June 26, 2024
- KutuBuku0 contributionsStunning viewPros: The view was absolutely stunning. Very kind and friendly staff. Cons: The volume on the audio guide was very terrible; we couldn't hear the speaker well even though we were sitting right next to it. Because of this, we missed a lot of things that we thought were very interesting. The recorded audio guide also made the experience impersonal.Written April 4, 2024
- TheStrandedTraveller0 contributionsSurprisingly a relaxing cruiseWe decided to book the 5.20pm cruise last minute for something to do one evening. Despite the negative feedback this cruise gets, i can honestly say it was better than I expected. It was dusk when the boat left, sun was beginning to set, the last 20 mins of the cruise is in the dark. Great bar to grab a beer to relax after a day of walking. Worth it to sit back for an hour.Written March 18, 2024

- KTP3100 contributionsOne hour gondola cruiseI purposely chose the gondola cruise rather than the bigger boats, as I thought it looked more relaxing. It was a lovely way to enjoy the river and very peaceful with only 3 passengers on board! The cruise was very pleasant and the audio guide was reasonably interesting.Written July 15, 2023
- Lauren03590 contributionsAmazing experience!Mariusz was our captain was absolutely fantastic on our gondola ride!! We had the best couple of hours, the cruise was amazing with beautiful scenery!

We missed our first booking due to the taxi dropping us off at the wrong destination. The team was brilliant and rebooked us for the following evening. The river cruise was a beautiful experience and I would definitely recommend to anyone especially at such a reasonable price

The Krakow by Night Vistula River cruise was a magical experience. The boat was comfortable, and the city’s illuminated landmarks created a stunning backdrop. Cruising past Wawel Castle and other historic sites under the evening sky felt truly enchanting. The atmosphere was peaceful, with soft music enhancing the ambiance. The crew was friendly and professional, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable journey. It’s a perfect way to see Krakow from a unique perspective and unwind after a day of exploring. Highly recommended for couples or anyone looking for a serene and memorable evening in this beautiful city!

This is a fun activity to do when the weather is nice. You can sit outside on the upper deck and get drinks and snacks on board for reasonable prices. Don't expect to be blown away by the information they provide, just enjoy a warm spring or summer evening

We would have liked to do the tour .... but .... after looking for the starting point for a long time, as the signage is more than deficient, the bartender of a restaurant ship explained to us that the tour would have been cancelled. They don't know when the tour will take place again - due to the flood. We fully understood that, but not that we went there specifically. A brief notification would have been more than desirable. Service performance = 0

The trip was canceled by us at the place where you purchased it. We do not have access to the Client's direct data. The flood and the closed navigable route are force majeure, over which we have no influence.

We had a fantastic nighttime cruise along the river, with wonderful views. 60 minutes was the perfect length and the English commentary was interesting and informative. Friendly and reasonably-priced bar. The location is easy to find, but it's a few minutes' walk from the nearest road which might be an issue for anyone who's severely mobility-impaired, along with the quite steep and tight staircase to the upper level of the boat. The vast majority of people will be fine though.

Slightly tour Krakow, how very nice that was! On top of the boat with your nose in the wind, 1000 lights around you reflected in the water, beautiful! Enjoy all that beauty for a whole hour!
My phone was almost dead but was allowed to charge it at the bar with the captain's plug, so here again a big thank you for those 2 sweethearts!😍

Was really excited for this but was unfortunately let down. Our boat was tiny, nothing like the ones advertised, and the plastic window covers were down making the view from the boat blurry. No refreshments were available like other reviewers talk about. The audio guide is minimal and not at all informative. It is a shame as it sounds like other reviewers had a much different, positive experience. Good points were punctuality and politeness of the staff.

Good price, but the sunset after the cruise ended. No drinks provided, but then again it wasn't a bad cruise. Nice, not outstanding. Recommend if you are staying longer term in Krakow or maybe earlier in the summer when the sun sets earlier.

We took the Krakow river cruise at the beginning of September in the middle of a heatwave. Was a lovely way to round off an evening , weather was still warm but the gentle breeze from cruising down the river was a relief. I’d arrive early to get a seat on the top viewing deck rather than be sat downstairs in the bar. Drink prices are reasonable. Only thing I didn’t like was the small smelly toilet.

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that the river cruise provided a refreshing break during the heatwave and that you enjoyed the experience, especially on the top deck with the breeze. We hope to welcome you back soon!

We booked a 7.15pm 'cruise', We got there with plenty of time to spare, even though there's no actual signage as to where to go when we got to the actual river. Only one boat was lit up so we assumed it was that one. Someone eventually appeared and said we could get onto that one, get a drink at the bar, then climb off that one onto the actual trip boat.
There were only 4 of us on board so it must've been boring for the driver but he had headphones in, was on Tik Tok on his phone, made a couple of calls and only looked up every now and again to make sure he wasn't going to crash into anything.
It's not the most expensive thing to do in Krakow so we weren't expecting the QE11 but a safety brief and some interaction may have been nice.

Thank you for expressing your opinion. Unfortunately, city ordinances do not allow us to mark the meeting location more clearly. We are located in the historic center of Krakow. in the description of the meeting place there is information to enter the Arkadia bark entrance, where the staff is waiting.
