The experience

The tour starts at Zakrzowek and moves through the Old Town, where the guide stops at Barbakan, cycles the Planty park, and reaches the Grote Markt to explain the buildings around it. You'll pass the university, ride around the Castle along the Wisla river, and pause at churches, statues and landmarks that piece together Krakow's history. Because this is a private tour, the pace is yours. If you want to rest on a bench, take a photograph, or sit on a terrace with a drink, the guide works around it.

From the Old Town, the route moves into Kazimierz, the Jewish Quarter where Jewish people lived from the 14th century through the Second World War. The neighborhood still holds that history in its streets and synagogues, though it has become a destination for food, drinks and nightlife. You cycle through it with the guide pointing out the stories embedded in the architecture and the spaces themselves.

Bicycles and helmets are included. Specialized infant seats are available if you're traveling with small children. The guide speaks English or Dutch depending on which option you book. Public transportation stops are nearby if you need an alternative to cycling at any point.
