Description
Discover Kazimierz and Podgórze, two historic districts in Krakow, on an eco-friendly electric golf cart tour with audio commentary. The route covers key sites of Jewish heritage, including synagogues, traditional streets, and the remains of the wartime ghetto.
The experience begins at the meeting point, where you board a heated golf cart equipped with an audio guide. The tour starts in Kazimierz, the historic Jewish Quarter that functioned as a separate town and a major center of Jewish culture for centuries. You will pass historic synagogues, narrow streets, and locations that reflect everyday life and Jewish traditions preserved to this day.
Next, the tour continues through the Christian section of Kazimierz, known for its cafés and galleries, illustrating the long history of coexistence between Jewish and Christian communities. Crossing the Vistula River, you enter Podgórze, the site of the former Jewish ghetto during World War II. Here, you will see the remaining fragment of the ghetto wall, Ghetto Heroes Square with its chair memorial, and the historic Under the Eagle Pharmacy, all strong reminders of Krakow’s wartime history.
