    I can't recommend this tour enough! The guide was fantastic! The tour guide spoke of Krakow with such passion! We started at the meeting point in the main square. We went on a short walk into the Jewish Quarter. The tour guide had an immense knowledge of the city. The tour was very refreshing. There was a lot of jokes in between the history, which kept us wanting more. There was a small break in the middle of the tour, and we finished at Schindler's Factory. If you would like to see the Jewish Quarter in a nice, funny and interesting way. I highly recommend this tour.

    The information was great, but the guide spoke very softly and was very hard to hear. He spent the vast majority of the time just walking us from place to place without any interaction with the group between stops. He smoked while we walked, and since he was in front of us, that meant that we had smoke blown into our faces for most of the tour. We also had to wait while he made a stop at a bank machine. If this was the kind of tour that included a snack paid for by the guide, I would understand. But that was not the case, and I don't think paying customers should have to stand around especially in winter while the tour guide does an errand. Still, the information itself was interesting and, with a better guide, this could be a great tour.
