Kraków travel tips
Comfortable shoes are a must in Krakow as it is full of cobbled streets
Long walks can be exhausting if the sole of your shoes is thin. It is also important for disabled persons and families with kids to know that many hotels, restaurants, and other venues in Krakow do not have elevators.
Euros are not accepted in Krakow. Make sure you have zloty
Even though Poland is part of the European Union, this country still uses its own currency, the zloty. Euro are not accepted almost anywhere, except for the most touristic cafes and restaurants. To exchange money, look for a “Kantor” sign; it’s an exchange office in Polish.
Find lots of food trucks with delicious street food in the Kazimierz district
In the trendy Kazimierz district, you will find a variety of food trucks with local dishes. Be sure to try the Krakow Machanka at Andrus Food Truck — it is pork marinated for two days and then slowly stewed at a low temperature. It is eaten in bread with various fillings, such as pickled cucumber and caramelised onions
