If you want to see Krakow’s Jewish Quarter without getting tired or missing hidden corners, this electric scooter tour is perfect. You’ll cover all the essentials with a local guide who knows every shortcut and story. Plus, it’s just plain fun.
Honestly, I was a bit nervous at first—never tried an electric scooter before. But our guide, Piotr, gave us a quick run-through right by the edge of Zakrzówek. The morning air was cool, and you could hear the city waking up—trams rattling in the distance, someone selling obwarzanki from a cart nearby. Helmets on, we wobbled for maybe two minutes, then it just clicked. Zipping through Kazimierz felt like cheating time; we covered so much ground without breaking a sweat.
First stop: Kupa Synagogue. Piotr pointed out the faded Hebrew inscriptions on the wall—easy to miss if you’re not looking. He shared stories about the old Jewish families who lived here, and I swear you could almost feel the history in the bricks. We rolled on to Wolnica Square, where pigeons outnumber people most mornings. The square’s quieter than Rynek Główny, but there’s this hum of local life—kids kicking a ball, someone setting up tables for lunch.
Plac Nowy was buzzing even before noon. The smell of zapiekanki (those long toasted baguettes) drifted over from Endzior’s window. Piotr gave us his favorite spot for coffee—Eszeweria, tucked away behind some ivy. We snapped photos at Corpus Christi Church and Skalka (St. Stanislaus Church), both heavy with stories. The Remuh Cemetery felt different—quiet, shaded, stones covered in little pebbles left by visitors. Last stretch took us over Bernatek Footbridge, wind off the river picking up as we crossed. By the end, my legs were fresh but my head was full of new places to check out later.
