Outstanding Tour: Informative and Powerful

John_T, Jun 2026

For anybody truly, seriously interested in the history of Poland, WWII, and Jews in Krakow, I strongly recommend taking this tour with Christopher. Christopher was an outstanding, highly knowledgeable engaging guide, and I thoroughly enjoyed his tour. I learned a great deal and had a wonderful time walking all about Krakow. He was organized, clear, and showed me several notable sights connected to the history of the Jews in Krakow which I was unaware of. Most notable for me were the sights of Kazimierz, the old Jewish quarter, and Remuh synagogue and cemetery which were a complete surprise and very moving. Also of note was our visit to The Ghetto Heroes Square and the chairs (Plac Bohaterów Getta) which I had not heard of until he showed it to me--very powerful, moving history. We also visited the famous Krakow Ghetto pharmacy which was another story of the Jews in the Holocaust and Poland I was unaware of--and it is well worth visiting. In fact, after my tour with Christopher, I went back to visit Plac Bohaterów Getta a second time. I LOVE to walk, and while we did spent a long time (close to three hours) walking, there was nothing difficult or steep--all gentle, straightforward and flat. I strongly recommend taking Christopher's tour--a great history lesson and tour of Krakow combined.

Informative tour worth doing.

We had an excellent and informative tour of the Krakow Jewish Quarter. The amount of detailed information we were given by our guide was amazing. It was very moving to learn about the history of Krakow during World War 2. Excellent tour.

Nice tour of the city

Debra_N, Oct 2023

Saw a lot of the city with a nice guide. I want expecting an prepared audio recording so that was different than other tours.

Back streets of the Jewish Quarter

Amy_S, Oct 2022

We covered the back streets of the Jewish Quarter, though much has changed. It was Simchat Torah and everything was closed, but we could see what had existed. Had coffe at Hera, a nice cafe. The guide didn’t pressure us to do more than we wanted to and we had done another walking tour in the morning. We would recommend Christopher.
