About this activity

No visit to Kraków can be considered complete without experiencing the wealth of local cuisine flavours! Join us for a 3-hour culinary stroll with an experienced local guide and Polish cuisine connoisseur.

On this tour, we will taste more than 10 of the most delicious and traditional Polish dishes and snacks. Some of them are known all over the country (the famous pierogi), but others, such as the obwarzanek (a type of pretzel) available exclusively in Kraków! The guide introduces us to several local restaurants, patisseries, and cafes so that we can enjoy excellent food in a small group and learn about Polish traditions or customs connected with the preparation and consumption of the tasted dishes.

Polish culinary culture is, of course, not just about food – the tour includes various types of high-quality Polish vodkas tasting.

The tour takes place in Krakow's Old Town, and in its course, the guide also tells us about the most beautiful landmarks we pass along the tour route.
