PRIVATE CITY TOURS & DAY TRIPS FROM KRAKOW WITH A STATE-LICENSED TOUR GUIDE.

My name is Zuzanna, and I dare to call myself a tour tailor, because I use my specialty education, years of experience, and passion for people to create memorable itineraries.

I always make it a rule to never miss a chance to meet someone who survived the Holocaust. For years, it's been my top priority. If I hear about a meeting I can go to, I make sure I'm there.

On January 27th, which is Holocaust Remembrance Day, I got to meet Niusia Horowitz-Karakulska again. She was born in Krakow in 1932 and still calls the city home. She lived through the Krakow ghetto and Plaszow Camp and even worked for Oskar Schindler.

Now at 92, she's super busy. She gives interviews, meets with young folks, and shares her story.

Why does she do it?

Here's what she says:

"It's important. We can't forget what people can do to each other, both the bad and the good. The fact that we can talk today is a miracle, thanks to Oskar Schindler. That's all there is to it."

Meet Brian, who comes from Warsaw, but not the one in Poland—Warsaw, I

Even though he doesn't have Polish family, he grew up around lots of Polish friends and traditions.

So, for him, everything Polish feels like home.

On our private Krakow tour, Brian was super excited to see the grave of Thaddeus Kosciuszko, a hero known by Polish people in the U.S. too.

It was a highlight for him.

Brian left me a wonderful review:

"Our guide, Zuzanna, was super friendly and knew everything about Krakow. She made us see the city in a special way that we couldn't have done by ourselves. She told us all about the history, culture, where to find yummy Polish food, and even tried to teach us a bit of Polish! She showed us the big famous spots and also little secret spots that you can't find in books or on big group tours. She was so much fun and really excited to show us around. Our tour was a 10 out of 10!"

I'm so happy Brian loved his tour.

My goal is to make everyone feel a special connection to Krakow, showing off its famous places, delicious food, and amazing stories.

Come explore Krakow with me and make your own unforgettable memories.
See you soon!

Discover Krakow's Wawel Castle with a fascinating guide! Imagine standing in the Royal Bedroom, looking up at a 500-year-old larch wood ceiling...

If only this silent witness to kings' intimate lives could talk... It wouldn't tell us anything, becuase the sneaky kings had canopies above their beds 😉

The ceiling is a rare piece from the Renaissance times that has made it through many historical events.

When we explore the castle, I get excited to show visitors this special spot.

Then, we take a moment to peek into the next room to see a modern reconstruction.

It's an incredible chance to compare the two. You'll be amazed by the difference, even if you've never paid much attention to ceilings before!

Thank you for an opportunity to meet these two amazing religious Jewish ladies! Olga Adamowska and Miariam Singe told us about their religious journey and their everyday life in Krakow. I can't wait to share some of their stories with my guests!

Today marks , and I'm thrilled to share a once-in-a-lifetime moment from my visit to Wawel Royal Castle

In December, I captured a selfie with a true legend – a sculpture from the Royal Throne Room's ceiling at Wawel Royal Castle.

Among the 30 original heads adorning the ceiling, this particular one holds a special place in history.

Legend has it, during a trial presided over by King Sigismund Augustus, this bold figure spoke out, influencing the king to overturn a verdict and save an innocent life. The king, in a twist of fate, silenced her forever by placing a boulder over her mouth.

This tale, along with the stunning heads (dating back to 1540s!!!) in the Throne Room, always leaves my guests in awe during our private tours of Wawel Royal Castle.

Last year, these heads were temporarily removed for an exhibition, and seeing this historic figure up close was like meeting a celebrity. I just had to take that selfie! 📸✨

In the ghetto, there is no summer, there are no seasons at all,
and the sun doesn't shine here either.

Everything is always dark and gray", said Roma Ligocka, a survivor of the Krakow ghetto.

Growing up in Poland during the German occupation, Roma Ligocka was recognized for her distinctive strawberry-red coat, a vivid contrast to the increasing gloom around her.

Half a century later, Roma saw Steven Spielberg's "Schindler's List" and immediately realized that the film's "girl in the red coat" – the sole spot of color in the movie – represented her.

The photograph depicts the poignant monument at Krakow's "Square of the Heroes of the Ghetto," a site historically significant as the deportation square.

This memorial features 70 vacant chairs, thoughtfully placed both on the square and at the bus/tram stops, serving as a silent yet powerful reminder of the past.

Let us never forget.

Where Italian flair meets Polish resilience! Gaze upon Wawel Royal Castle's courtyard, a masterpiece from the 1500s, where Italian architects' vision adapted to Poland's snowy embrace. Note the steep roofs, a clever twist to ensure the snow slides off, blending Renaissance elegance with practical northern wisdom. A perfect blend of sunny Italy and snowy Poland in one historic panorama!
