Cruise from Kazimierz to Nowa Huta while your Crazy Guide shares stories, songs and context about postwar planning — the perfect time for photos and to ask questions.

Tips from local experts:

  • Sit on the side with clearer views (ask the guide) for the best neighborhood photography.
  • If you want music, tell your guide — they often have a playlist of period songs to set the mood.
  • Keep small bills handy for any spontaneous snacks the guide points out along the route.

Return drive and drop-off at PURO Kraków Kazimierz (tour wrap-up)

12:20 – 12:30 • 10m

Tips from local experts:

  • Ask your guide for on-the-record restaurant or bar recommendations in Kazimierz for evening plans.
  • Request recommended photo edits or filters from the guide — they take lots of social-media-friendly shots on tours and know what works.
  • Tip in cash is appreciated by guides — envelopes available if you'd like to leave something for the whole team.
