Things to do in Krakow

Just a two and a half hours flight, Krakow, Poland offers tourists the chance to immerse themselves in a different culture whilst still enjoying a host of modern and exciting attractions.

Visit the ancient Wawel Castle, take a stroll around the picturesque old town or explore one of the city's many museums.

While the city is historic, there is still plenty to attract the modern tourist. Krakow's high student population means there's plenty going on at night, with everything from traditional bars to thriving clubs pulling in the crowds.

Krakow city breaks cater well for shoppers and souvenir hunters alike, with numerous markets and shopping malls scattered around the Old Town.

Whether you want a relaxing break to get away from it all or experience life in a different city, Krakow makes the ideal destination for anyone seeking a memorable trip.

Steeped in legend and heritage, Krakow is a city where old lives happily alongside new, and ancient churches, like the Franciscan, brush shoulders with modern bars and restaurants. Once you've taken in the beautiful architecture of the city, you needn't go too far to enjoy some hearty local cuisine or the tempting flavoured spirits favoured by the locals.

After dinner, you can choose to join in with the lively nightlife or experience the cafe culture in the popular Market Square. Holidays to Krakow can be made even more cultured by spending an evening at one of the renowned theatres like the Slowacki, where many acclaimed companies perform.

Come the morning, you'll have plenty of opportunity to blow off the cobwebs in the city's dozens of parks including the historic Planty, built to replace the ancient city walls. With snowy winters and mild weather throughout the rest of the year, Krakow city breaks are the perfect escape in any season.
