Places to See
Book ahead of time to avoid disappointment!
Wieliczka Salt Mine
Book ahead of time online to avoid having to stand in a line for a long period of time.
Oskar Schindler's Enamel Factory
They usually ask for a donation of about 15 PLN and has discounts for students, children and seniors.
St Mary's Basilica Monu…
Stunning, and the surrounding views of the city are incredible too!
Wawel Royal Castle
Not quite in Krakow, but a quick train ride away! Definitely worth a visit for the stunning scenery and fun activities. There are loads of bus day trips that will get you there from Krakow, or you can take the train and go yourself.
Zakopane
It also has a really nice market inside the building, but check online for opening days/times!
Krakow's Rynek Glowny Central Square
Fun Things to Do
Some touristy bits, some nightlife reccs. Such a fun city!
Full of interesting facts and some fun photo opportunities!
Torture Museum
Absolutely cursed but such a laugh, especially after a few drinks at a local pub!
Polonia Wax Museum - Muzeum Figur Woskowych Kraków
A fun and trippy activity! Great for fun photos and laughs.
Krakil Museum of Illusions
Spent soo many hours in here. You can ask for any song in any language and they’ll likely have it! Great drinks, a fun place to meet people as well. They also have a hostel above it where they give a free shot in the bar when you stay with them :)
Let's Sing Karaoke Bar
Places to Eat and Drink
A fun spot for photos and great cocktails!
Bubble Toast
The cutest Harry Potter themed café. They make magical mocktails, and have some cute snacks! They also sell some Harry Potter merch 👀
Dziórawy Kocioł
My fave hidden pub we stumbled upon by accident! A cute underground bar that sometimes has live music, and sells a Polish flag themed vodka shot tray.
Dobry Kumpel Pub
Food to Try
Yuuuuum 😍
Stuffed Polish Cabbage (Gołąbki)
You can find these mainly in cafés and in street vendors. One of my favourite lunches (or late night snack) to have in Poland!
Zapiekanka - A great polish street food!
I LOVE pierogies. You can get them with many different stuffings (potato, cheese, mushrooms etc.) We found the best ones in the Kazimierz area restaurants.
