Very disappointed.

Jeffrey_S, Sep 2025
Cancellation of the tour by the tour operator one hour before the tour’s commencement due to “car trouble” was awful and unprofessional. I couldn’t believe it and still can’t. Booked essentially the same tour thru my hotel concierge with a different tour operator.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Highly recommend the private sightseeing tour - very flexible!

Brooke_W, Dec 2024
One of the best parts about having a private tour of Krakow, Poland was our driver Wojciech. He was very personable and flexible. All we had to do was text him when we were ready to leave for the next destination. He was also very knowledgeable about the city and country's history and was able to explain a lot of what we were seeing in between destinations. We never felt rushed at any time, and were really able to absorb and see all we wanted to see. We even deviated a little from the standard tour, and asked him to show us both the old and new parts of the city which he did a super job with achieving this. Highly recommend!!

Disappointed

Anonymous, Nov 2024
once we got into the van the driver asked us where we wanted to go. I told him that we wanted to visit the spots that were listed on the web site. He said there is nothing listed there. We stated we are tourist here please show us around. When we asked if he would narrate what we are seeing he said that is not part of his job. He is only the driver. Very disappointed for the money we paid. After asking him numerous times, what's this, what's that, he did tell us. Not what we expected
