Tours to Krakow
Krakow is one of Europe’s most beautiful cities and is a popular stop for those joining us on one of our escorted tours to Poland. Its Old Town which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site, has an enormous 13th century Market Square which is filled with pavement cafes, vendors, horse and carriages, and unfortunately, a huge number of pigeons!
With its historic sites and attractions, such as the sadly poignant Ghetto Heroes Square, St. Mary’s Basilica Renaissance, and the 16th-century Renaissance Cloth Hall, its colourful streets and an annual list of spectacular events and festivals celebrating the arts, theatre, music and food, there is always something to see and do in this lovely city.
