The tour covered in detail all the history and historic monuments in Krakow's old town and castle. Krys was very knowledgeable, he made the tour entertaining, engaging the walkers with tricky questions and providing a lot of detail. He is an expert and passionate about history and archaeology. One of the best tours we have done.
