Kraków travel tips

Take your warmest clothes with you if you are in Krakow in winter

Winter in Krakow can be very harsh, down to -15 degrees Celsius. Take a puffer, warm boots, and a hat with you, and get ready to warm up with mulled wine and punch at the fairs.

If you are really hungry, try bigos in Krakow

Bigos is one of the fattest dishes in Polish cuisine. The classic portion served in any restaurant in Krakow consists of sauerkraut and fresh cabbage and several grilled and smoked meat types. Such a dish will put you back on your feet after a whole day of viewing the sights of Krakow!

Krakow Tourist Cards can help you save money if you love museums

Krakow Tourist Cards give their holders free admission to 38 museums and attractions, discounts in partner cafes and restaurants, and unlimited public transport use. The price depends on the number of days, and it makes sense to buy such a card for 2 or 3 days as you won’t have time to visit all 38 places of interest in just one day.
