I highly recommend the experience because it is very romantic, sailing very calmly with soft background music on the Vistula River. The ship is large and I recommend going straight to the upper deck to enjoy a better view. The only downside is that the commentary is not in Italian... the boat is equipped with clean restrooms and a small bar.

A very beautiful experience, the service is impeccable, and the view of Krakow is magnificent at night. The Ferris wheel, the balloon, as well as the illuminated bridges light up the city. Worth doing again.

It was fantastic to see the city from the Vistula in the late afternoon, both because of its beauty and because of the information being broadcast from the boat—also in Spanish.

This is the second time I visited the castle and it was even more spectacular than I remember it the first time 16 years ago. This is a must see when you are in Kracow.

Everything was excellent, except that the speakers could be amplified, because unfortunately I couldn't hear many things because of the noisy company that was next to me. Otherwise - excellent crew and very interesting and pleasant driving. We had the opportunity to catch the sunset and the first darkness. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great view!

We booked the evening tour and it was amazing. Seeing Krakow illuminated at night was really beautiful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If you prefer to sit on the upper deck, I’d recommend arriving at the boat a little earlier, as those seats fill up quickly.

Enjoy an evening cruise on the Vistula River and take in the best attractions of Krakow from a great waterfront perspective.

Enjoy skipping the ticket line at the pier and also listening to an audio guide in Polish, Spanish, German & English with a ticket upgrade.

Admire top highlights of the city like the significant Wawel Castle and Kazimierz District, 'Church on the Rock', and more.

With an interesting audio guide, enhance your evening cruise experience even more as you learn so much about every riverside attraction.

Be sure to soak up the splendid views of the historic Norbetin Monastery. Opt for a glass of wine exchangeable with beer/soft drinks of your choice.

The starting and ending point near the castle is truly scenic, even more so at sunset!! Aside from that, it doesn't offer much. Nice, but nothing more.

Combine a Vistula River cruise with a guided visit to the former Płaszów camp in one thoughtful experience.

Getting started: Meet near the Bulwar Inflancki water tram stop “Paulinska” for check-in and boarding. After the one-way cruise with audio guide, continue to the former Płaszów Concentration Camp for a guided walking tour led by an expert.

What to expect: Płaszów Concentration Camp Once a Nazi German labor and concentration camp, the Płaszów site today is a memorial landscape. Your guide shares the camp’s history, memorials, and connections to Oskar Schindler and Schindler’s List filming locations.

Features:

Memorial sites and markers: Visit areas such as the Grey House vicinity, pre-burial hall ruins, traces of Jewish cemeteries, the roll-call square, and the Monument of Torn-Out Hearts, understanding their significance.

Riverside viewpoints: From the catamaran, see Kościuszko’s Mound, the Norbertan Sisters Monastery, Wawel Royal Castle, the Manggha Museum, and the Church on the Rock with audio commentary for context.
