About

An independent guide, not an agency

Krakow.com is an English-language reference to one city. It is written to be useful before you arrive and while you are there, and it is honest about how it makes its money.

What this is

A guide to Krakow that tries to answer the questions people actually have. Which district to sleep in. Whether a queue is worth joining. What a meal costs. Which two things have to be booked weeks ahead, and which can wait until you are there.

Entries carry addresses, hours and prices because a guide without them is just atmosphere. Where we do not know something, we leave it out rather than guess.

How it is paid for

Partner links. If you book a tour, a room, an eSIM or travel cover through a link here, we earn a commission and you pay exactly the same price. Those links are labelled wherever they appear.

What that does not buy is a place in the guide. Businesses can pay for placement, and when they do it says so. Nobody can pay to be recommended.

What we will not do

We are not a travel agency and we do not sell packages. Nobody will ring you. We do not invent reviews, we do not publish ratings we did not gather, and we do not pad the guide with places we cannot describe properly.

Corrections

Opening hours change, restaurants close, prices move. If something here is wrong, tell us and it gets fixed. That is the most useful thing a reader can do.

Corrections and enquiries are handled by Nikko Salamanca. Contact: contact form.
