Krakow · CHRISTMAS
The 2 best christmas tours to book this season, each with its price, how long it takes and who it suits. Number one is where most people start.
Spend an hour with the Royal Chamber Orchestra in a historic Krakow tenement house on Sławkowska 14. The program pairs seasonal music with classical pieces, and your ticket includes a glass of wine. The orchestra was founded in 2007 by Sławomir Prokopik.
“Really lovely way to spend part of our evening. beautiful music.”
Spend about two hours with an English-speaking guide exploring Krakow’s Christmas market, Floriańska Street, and the Stary Kleparz farmers’ market. Expect old photographs, stories about Polish Christmas customs, and tastings of traditional foods and chocolate. Groups are limited to 15, and the walk begins and ends near Main Square.
“What a fantastic tour! Suzanna was the most perfect guide. Taking us to multiple spots, gearing it towards our loves (bread baking) giving us traditional Polish foods to try that were some of the most delicious bites we’ve had in Europe. Storytelling like a pro with pictures of the same markets a hundred years before. I couldn’t have dreamed up a better tour.”
Pick a square, a mine shaft or a mountain road.
