Old Town Krakow and Christmas Market Walking Tour

Explore the Old Town of Kraków

The Royal Road is a picturesque route leading along some of the most famous streets and passing some of the most prominent townhouses of Kraków’s historic center. During the tour, you will be able to see, among other things, the Wawel Royal Castle, the residence of the kings of Poland at the time of its greatest splendour – until the 17th century. This is a must-see when visiting the former capital of Poland.

There will also be a seasonal attraction! During our Walking Tour, you can see the Christmas Market, which takes place every year in the center of the Old Town. It will be a unique opportunity to feel the real Christmas atmosphere. After the Tour, you can go shopping in beautiful stalls.

The tour starts at our Tourist Information Point (TIP) – 18 Grodzka Street. A leisurely walk down the route of the centuries-old architecture of Kraków leads to the legends surrounding the Main Square, the Cloth Hall, and the famous St. Mary’s Basilica with the distinctive two towers.

An optional tour of the Czartoryski Museum is also available. You can book our city walk with an English-speaking guide and combine your tour with the visit to the Museum. Take your chance to see the famous painting ‘Lady with an Ermine’ by Leonardo da Vinci. This option includes an entry ticket to The Czartoryski Muzeum and an audioguide in selected languages. Entry time to the facility is at or around 5:00 pm on the date of the tour.
