Kinga has been guiding tours through Kraków for over twelve years, starting in her university days at the Academy of Fine Arts. She holds a Master's in Fashion History and has written for Vogue Polska, consulted for the Museum of Kraków, and knows every hidden courtyard, tailor's workshop, and independent atelier in the city. She still discovers new stories, still gets excited by forgotten details, and still believes the best way to understand a city is through its clothes.

An incredible experience. Kinga brought the history of Kraków's fashion to life in a way no guidebook could. Highly recommend!

Best walking tour I've taken anywhere. Kinga explains the 'why' behind every building, not just the 'what'. Already booked my second tour!

A perfect Saturday morning. The pace is relaxed but you learn a lot. Kinga has a gift for making history feel approachable and relevant.

Frequently asked
Comfortable walking shoes are essential — we cover about 4km across Kazimierz and the Old Town. Otherwise, dress for the weather and wear whatever makes you feel good.
Around 3 hours door-to-door. That's roughly 2.5 hours walking with your guide, plus a mid-way café stop.
Children aged 12 and over are very welcome. For younger children the 3-hour walking format can be too long — contact us and we can arrange a shorter private version.
English and Polish as standard. French, Spanish, and Italian are available on request with 14 days' notice.
We run rain or shine — Kraków in drizzle is still beautiful and most of the route is sheltered. In severe weather, we'll reschedule or refund.
