Skip the ticket line at Wawel Castle in Krakow and tour royal rooms and exhibitions with a live guide in about 1 to 2 hours.

“Our guide was really knowledgable and friendly, it was a very small group (just 4 of us for the apartments, 2 of us for the armoury) so was no danger of not hearing anything or missing anything, was much better than just walking around yourself and looking as you got to learn a lot more about the history of the castle and the artefacts that you probably wouldn’t learn just from the information tabs. Definitely recommend if you are wanting to learn more about the history of Krakow and about the royals of Poland.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 249 reviews · 2 hours · from $28

Wawel guided tour in Krakow: cathedral, royal tombs, private apartments, giant tapestries, and the Zygmunt Bell with skip-the-line guide.

“Really enjoyed the tour of the treasury and the guide was very informative and interesting. I feel many of these guided tours though are overpriced.

For instance the tour of Schindler’s Factory booked with this company cost about £28. Entry to the factory on Monday is free and only around £4 the rest of the week. If you arrive before opening time at 10am, there is no queue. If…”
