We really enjoyed the cruise. The views of Kraków from the Vistula were beautiful, especially in the evening. What impressed us most was the kindness of the staff. Our boat hadn't arrived yet, and instead of making us wait on the pier for about 15 minutes, they invited us to wait comfortably on another boat. It was a small gesture, but it made us feel very welcome. Everything was well organized, and we would happily recommend this cruise.

This presents an opportunity to see the architecturally- and historically-rich city of Krakow from a different point of view. A unique view is obtained of the Wawel Castle and other iconic symbols along the banks of the Vistual. Make sure you bring a coat with you (even if the sun's out!), although they did provide blankets. The quality of the audio would probably be better conveyed through headphones.

Amazing experience! The boat tour was a really relaxing and enjoyable way to see Krakow from a different perspective. The views along the river were beautiful, especially with the historic buildings and the Wawel Castle. The atmosphere on the boat was calm and perfect to take photos. The staff was friendly and everything was well organized. I would definitely recommend this activity to anyone visiting Krakow, especially if you want something easy and not tiring. Great value for money!

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.

Hello, everything was perfect—the organization, the punctuality, and the explanations. For me, especially since it was also my birthday, it was the best possible way to end the day.

Pretty laid back cruise on the wisla river. Some smell coming from not ventilated toilets - the best place is upstairs in the open air

The tour itself was really good. However, there was absolutely no way to follow the commentary about the sights we passed because you couldn’t hear a thing—the sound quality was simply too poor. The tour took us past many beautiful sights, but we couldn’t hear anything about what they were.
