Krakow City Golf Cart Excursion

All tours commence at 2 Zyblikiewicza Street at the designated time and are equipped with an English-speaking audio guide. Detailed descriptions of both options are available below.

Old Town Area Tour (45 minutes)

Choosing this option means you will spend 45 minutes exploring the vibrant heart of medieval Krakow. This delightful golf cart ride will carry you back to a period filled with kings, knights, and timeless tales. As we meander through the serene expanse of Planty Park and the quaint cobblestone pathways of the Old Town, we will unveil the magnificence of Krakow's historical core. Admire the Gothic designs of St. Cross Church and the elegance of the S?owacki Theatre, alongside the preserved fragments of the old city walls.

Our exploration will proceed to the Barbican and the memorable Jan Matejko Square, where we will also observe the Church of St. Florian and the lively S?awkowska Street, where the past harmonizes with the present. Continuing our journey, we will pass the Czartoryski Museum and sail up St. John’s Street, taking in the sights of the historic St. John’s Church.

Our path leads us to the renowned Main Square, a bustling center filled with a rich tapestry of history and energy. We will then head towards Plac Szczepa?ski, where the Palace of Art awaits. As the tour nears its conclusion, we will view significant landmarks like St. Anne’s Church, the Town Hall, and the Franciscan Church.

In the end, we will have a chance to relish the royal elegance of Wawel Castle, majestically situated on a hill, providing a fitting close to our excursion through the annals of Krakow's history after a duration of 45 minutes.

Jewish Quarter & Former Ghetto Tour (1.5 hours)

Step into the past and unveil the touching narrative of Kazimierz, the Jewish district of Krakow. This tour immerses you in Jewish life prior to the Nazi occupation, highlighting the interplay of Christian and Jewish legacies within the area.

We will initiate our journey by cruising through Planty Park and wandering through picturesque narrow lanes, where historic synagogues such as Tempel, Kupa, Isaac, Old Synagogue, Popper, and Remuh reside. Throughout this exploration, we will delve deep into the rich heritage of Jewish culture while visiting the Jewish Quarter and the childhood home of Helena Rubinstein. Stories and memories of the Nissembaum Family Foundation will be uncovered at their memorial stone, alongside a glimpse of ancient Jewish shops that echo tales from the past.

As we progress, we will traverse the former Krakow Ghetto, exploring locations immortalized in the 1993 film "Schindler's List." Stories surrounding Oskar Schindler and his factory will come to life, along with a visit to Ghetto Heroes Square and the notable Pharmacy under the Eagle, where the brave Tadeusz Pankiewicz made his stand.

Next, we will visit the Ghetto Wall memorial site located on ul. Lwowska, where a fragment of the original wartime wall still stands. Other important landmarks we will pass include the Church of St. Joseph, Ska?ka Church, the Church of St. Catherine, and Wolnica Square, which houses the Jewish City Hall.

Ultimately, this enlightening journey will conclude after 1.5 hours.
