Cracow Tours
Cracow's Old Town is compact and easy to wander around but a guided-walking tour will enrich the experience. Guide Cracow (tel: (012) 411 4801; www.guide-cracow.pl) offers a wide selection of tours on foot, tailored to suit a variety of interests: from architecture to literature and famous people. Seasonal tours are also available. Marco der Pole (Tel; (012) 430 2131; www.marcoderpole.com.pl) has daily tours of the Old Town and Kazimierz.
Cracow Tours (tel: (012) 430 0726; www.cracowtours.pl) organises various bus trips to the most popular sites within and near Cracow, including daily city tours, Jewish Cracow, Wieliczka Salt Mine, New Town, Auschwitz and even a day trip to Zakopane. Another option to see the Old Town and parts of Kazimierz up close are the little five-seat carts run by Omega City Tour (tel: (012) 422 9305; www.omega.civ.pl/citytour).
Boat tours on the Vistula River offer great views of Wawel Castle; departures are usually between May and September. One such boat is the Nimfa (tel: (012) 422 0855), berthed below Wawel Hill near Grunwald Bridge.
Krakow Bike Tours (Tel: 0663 731 515; www.krakowbiketour.com) offers daily tours of Cracow from the Main Market Square and Wawel to Oskar Schindler's factory in Podgorze.
In season, Rynek Glowny is overrun with dorozki (horse-drawn carriages) brought in to please tourists. Trotting across the cobbles, though, is something of an essential experience for first-time visitors.
