What travellers are saying
- Sara-Jane O12 contributionsAbsolutely beautiful, especially at night BUT please do not exchange money with a company called Kantor Exchange in the square. The rate advertised is not what you get and we were not the only ones duped, go to a bankWritten 17 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pub Monster NeilLiverpool, UK678 contributionsI love Stare Miasto ( Old Town ) in Krakow, its such a visually stunning district of this fascinating and historic city ,the architecture in both Maly Rynek and Rynek are awesome, these two square's look amazing with great looking buildings such as Sy Mary's Basilica and the Sukeinnece being the standout structures in the Old Town, the Old Town streets are also fabulous, there's many great pubs,bars, cafe's and restaurants and it's popular, we are currently in Krakow in February and it's packed ,great atmosphere especially in the Old Town, if you're planning a holiday to Krakow it's most definitely well worth checking out, in fact it's a must go destination.Written 8 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Nick NPortsmouth, UK1,652 contributionsWhat an amazing church, a must visit when you’re in the area. The sheer size inside will blow you away. Lots to see and free English translation plan to use.Written 8 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- CBell27 contributionsInformative and interesting. Well worth visiting to get a sense of the occupation.
Walkable from krakow (about 35/40 mins from main square) or 1 stop on the train, and there are cafes/ restaurants close by.
Can get crowded as v popular so pick your time. There are guides / tours groups where people are obviously gathered round them so be prepared to either wait or politely get past.Written 11 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The cathedral can be paid for and visited seperately. follow the suggested route around to and you wil see all of it, including the crypt with all the royal coffins.Written 6 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The actors are brilliant and stay in character, and they really do grip you, I was dragged around by my hair. The escape room elements are basic but the sheer terror takes over, to the point we failed most of the escape elements because of just how scary it was. Much more intense than any of the UK scare parks.
Like one of the previous reviews I too fell from a height and into a fridge freezer, and I did knacker my knee in the process but it was deffo my own fault for doing a commando roll through the gap leaving my other half for dust with the monster in the room.
All in all would go and do it again (once I can walk again 🤣) and would deffo reccomend to anyone to loves a good scare. Not one for the faint hearted or anyone with mobility issues.Written 3 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I it is a good idea to read up about it before visiting to really understand the context. Would highly recommend having a look round here. Highly worth a visit. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Written 23 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- PiotrBoguszewskiAberdeen, UK3 contributionsGreat experience. The blind guide was very friendly and went us through his daily routine, such as crossing the road, buing vegetables at the local market, making a stake - all in complete darness.Written 14 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Мария П1 contributionIt was a very nice experience. A workshop where you can see all the process how the stained glass is made. Our guide Diana kindly answered all the questions of my 9-years-old son, so it is a kids-friendly place) The tour was in polish language. By the way, you can visit this museum with the guide only, not on your own.Written 16 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mark GHayle, UK19 contributionsA very informative private guided tour. What a mind blowing collection of architecture and history.Only downside for me was not being allowed to take pictures of some breathtaking chapels and architecture..Written 7 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
