How you will help the local community by joining this tour: - We visit only locally-owned bars, restaurants, and food vendors that are off the main tourist trail, ensuring that they benefit from tourism in their cities. - Any leftover food not consumed on the tour is donated to the charity organization to be redistributed to the homeless. - We use only local transport (tram) or our feet so our carbon footprint is practically zero!
Please wear comfortable shoes for walking.
Food Allergies: Unless you suffer from multiple, combined food allergies, or unless you are a vegan, we will figure it out. Vegetarians are welcome on all tours.
Tips: If you are happy with the services provided by your local guides a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry. Please consider this when budgeting for your extra expenses on this tour.

Marta is an excellent guide sharing the history of Krakow as well as stories of her own life. She took us to places that are locally owned and are not tourist destinations. One was a pub in the basement of a building dating back to the 1300s. The variety of foods was great. We really enjoyed the evening with Marta.

Great host, great drinks, great food
Myrthe_v, May 2022
It turned out to be a private tour which gave us a very unique experience. We learned lots of new things about krakow and the polish cuisine.
Monika was an amazing host, she took the time to explain the food and told us a lot about the city. She is very passionate about the foodtour and it shows.
We deliberately waited to eat any polish dishes before the tour and were very happy that we did that, because the food we had was really really good.
