Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

See Krakow’s top attractions on a comfortable, eco-friendly golf cart tour of the Old Town. Visit the Main Market Square, St. Mary’s Basilica, and the Cloth Hall. Pass the Barbican, Planty Park, and Collegium Maius, and admire Wawel Castle from a perfect viewpoint. With audio commentary and zero walking, it’s the easiest and most enjoyable way to experience the best of Krakow’s UNESCO World Heritage heart.

Stop 2

Krakow’s Jewish Quarter
Kazimierz, once a separate town, is one of Krakow’s oldest and most fascinating districts. For centuries, it was home to both Jewish and Christian communities, whose cultures intertwined. During your golf cart tour, you’ll see over 20 landmarks, explore charming streets, and uncover the stories of its former residents — from synagogues and cemeteries to vibrant squares that still pulse with Krakow’s cultural life today.
After exploring Kazimierz, your golf cart will take you directly to Schindler’s Factory.

Stop 3

Step into one of Kraków’s most visited museums — Schindler’s Enamel Factory, where history comes alive through powerful exhibitions and expert storytelling. This is not a simple biographical museum, but a comprehensive journey through the years of Nazi occupation, showing how war transformed the city and the lives of its people.
With a licensed expert guide, you’ll skip the long ticket lines and explore the exhibition “Kraków under Nazi Occupation 1939–1945.” Housed in the former enamel factory of Oskar Schindler, the museum focuses not only on his story, but above all on the daily experiences of Kraków’s Jewish and non-Jewish residents during the war.
As you move through the galleries, you’ll encounter original artifacts, photographs, and immersive reconstructions. Much of the exhibition unfolds in a series of narrow, dimly lit rooms, deliberately designed to make visitors feel confined — echoing the fear, pressure, and uncertainty that dominated life under Nazi rule.
