Natalia was an excellent tour guide! We had about 30 people in the group and she managed it well. She helped make the Jewish quarter come alive. Her description of the reason for and the movement to the Jewish Ghetto helped us understand the trials faced by the Jews in Krakow.
I recommend Natalia and the tour!

A must do tour! We had “Big Tom” and despite the rain and cold, he preserved like it was no bother ! Very engaging and informative. Tom really knows his history and was highly intelligent. I think doing the Jewish Quarter and the ghetto on your own would be underwhelming and you would miss so much. Tom showed us so much, lots of synagogues and key places, embellishing them with true stories. Whilst the tone of this tour is obviously devastating, what Tom highlighted was also the stories of love and hope in humanity that can come from atrocious pain. If we had more time we would book again with him on another tour. We paid on the Viator app but what we didn’t realise is you can book direct with the company and then volunteer a contribution. Even though we had pre paid, we gave a tip at the end as he was truly deserving. If you are reading this and you have time, before visiting Krakow , you must watch the Schindler’s List film if you are unfamiliar (shocking but I think some people haven’t).
Thank you Tom, really loved the tour!

Superb. Jakob has a deep understanding as well as knowledge of his subject, is thoughtful and very sensative.

Excellent tour - very interesting information about life for Jewish people in Krakow before and during WWII

My wife and I have been on a lot of walking tours and this is definitely one of the best. Our guide (Lucy) did an excellent job. Oftentimes guides get too into the weeds, bombarding us with dates and names so a 2 1/2 hours long tour becomes totally exhausting. Lucy presented the important historical events and facts in an interesting way with narratives around people. She was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the Jews and the Jewish quarters and presented her knowledge in a straightforward and engaging way. I felt learned more on this tour than on most other tours I have been on.

Generally positive, guide was very knowledgeable. Way too much time spent standing still in one place listening to the guide.

Our tour guide Nalalia was very knowledgeable and provided a great explanation of the Jewish life and history in Krakow over the centuries. The end of the tour was about 10 minutes away from Shindler's factory, so we went there ourself after. It was very moving, and very sad that Polish people did not welcome their Jewish neighbours back after the WW2. Highly recommend this tour.

What a fantastic tour! Full of historical background on Krakow from its beginnings through WW2 and the communist era. Our guide, Natalia, was knowledgeable, easy to understand, and always concerned for our experience. Would 100% recommend.

The Guide was well informed and shared interesting information. I would Definitely recommend this tour.

Although it was a very cold afternoon we had a great time. The guide had a lot of command over the subject and was very friendly throughout.

Reserve la visita en ESPAÑOL y realice el pago de la “señal” al que se me obligó para realizarla.
Recibí el correo de reserva en donde efectivamente se especificaba que sería en ESPAÑOL y cuando llegue al punto de encuentro, me dice el guía que es en inglés.
Hice el tour, ya que había pagado con antelación la “señal” a la que obligaban para la reserva y porque ya había planificado todo lo tiempo para realizarlo y aunque el guía fue correcto y el trayecto debía ser interesante (no estoy seguro porque me enteré de bastante poco) evidentemente ME ENGAÑARON.
Viajo asiduamente y jamás haré ninguna excursión y/o tú con ustedes.

La web nos dejó realizar una reserva en un idioma que una vez en el punto de encuentro no existía. Si bien se pusieron en contacto para pedir disculpas, ya nos echó a perder la planificación de la tarde.
