Nos tocó el tour con Fran. Fue muy ameno y divertido y echamos un buen rato en el que nos explicó la parte de toma de contacto con la ciudad. Muy recomendable.

Sławomir (Sławek) was such a friendly and informative guide! I learned so much about the city and castle's history through facts and really engaging stories. You can tell Sławek is very passionate about his culture and history and I'm appreciative of him sharing it. His timing with each tour spot was amazing too!
