World War II in Krakow - Tour by Walkative! Poland — #1
1/15

Overview of the tour in Krakow

The time of the German Nazi occupation of Krakow is considered to be the most challenging period in the history of the city. It was a time of darkness but also a time of true heroes. It was a time of courage, fear, and betrayal when even the most straightforward decision could bear grave consequences. A time that lives in us thanks to the stories of our parents and grandparents.

On this tour, we will learn about the Nazi plans towards the Poles and understand how they repressed their victims. We will also talk about the citizens of Krakow and their attitudes towards the Germans.

That’s true – Kraków didn’t have an uprising, and the city wasn’t demolished, but the resistance movement still had its part during WWII. Join the World War 2 in Kraków FREE walking TOUR and learn more!

Our free tours are designed for individual travelers and small private groups only. Hence, we do not accept parties of 8 or more people on regular free tours, and guides can deny participation to such groups. If you travel to a party of 8 or more, please book a private tour in advance.

If you show up at the meeting point with the bigger group, our guide will ask you for the payment (10 euro/person) before the tour or cancel your reservation. To confirm your reservation, please arrive 10 minutes before starting. We can not guarantee participation when you are late.

Please note that multiple bookings (under different names) for seven people who belong to one group will still be treated as one organized group, and the guide has the right to deny participation to such parties.

The tour operates in all weather conditions, please dress appropriately. If the tour takes place outside and the weather conditions may pose a threat to the life and/or health of the participants, the Guide has the right to shorten or end the tour.

This policy is implied in the best interest of our visitors.
