Kraków travel tips
Hear a trumpeter playing from the towers of St. Mary Basilica
If you climb the towers of St. Mary Basilica at the right time, you can not only enjoy the panoramic view of Krakow but also witness the old tradition of the St. Mary's Trumpet Call. Every hour, a trumpeter shows up and plays five notes from the Polish anthem, four times to each side of the tower. If you see a huge crowd in the Main Market Square, the trumpeter is about to start playing. You won’t miss the show!
Don’t be surprised if doors do not open in Krakow trams
When there are few passengers, trams do not open all doors automatically. In this case, to exit or enter, press the button located on the side of the doors. You do not need to wait until the tram stops. Indicate your plans to get off by pressing the button beforehand.
Low on budget and hungry? Try milk bars in Krakow
These budget eateries have little to do with milk products. Today the menu in these canteens often includes vegetarian options as well. Be prepared for simple furnishings and self-service, but these eateries have one huge advantage — low cost. Many dishes cost less than one dollar!
