Description

Visit stores and galleries off the beaten tourist path on a private guided tour in Krakow. Join a local guide as they take you on a shopping trip complete with delicious snacks and a craft beer tasting. Meet your guide at your hotel and get ready to shop up a storm. But first, start with a snack to ensure that you don't shop on an empty stomach. Walk to a local spot selling the most popular snack in town, zapiekanka, an open-faced sandwich with cheese and other toppings. Meet the people who've been working in this store since 1980 and hear their stories about the end of the Communist Era and the beginning of the free market in Poland. Continue your tour with a visit to a local boutique selling clothing and accessories made in Krakow. These unique pieces are inspired by international trends and are ideal for fashion-forward shoppers. Next, make your way to a pottery store where you'll learn how patterns and colors differ depending on which region of Poland they're made in. Pop into a special shoe store and stop by a few of the many art galleries located along Jozefa Street. Here you'll be able to buy everything from wooden sculptures to paintings, to handmade decorations and folk embroidery. After all that browsing, it's time for a break. Follow your guide to one of the area's best-kept secrets, an amber gallery and café. Enjoy a cup of coffee and a slice of cake while you learn about amber. Then, take part in a mini workshop to uncover the secrets of this stone, including a lesson on how to spot fake amber. End your private shopping experience with a beer tasting. Sample 4 different types of Polish craft beer made in the mountains. The tasting is held at a local pub with a great vibe and offers a selection of beers from a local microbrewery, the perfect spot to unwind after a shopping trip.
