Street Art

See other face of the city

Do You know Banksy and his astonishing works? Street artists are able to turn any urban space, even the most neglected, into a unusual place, which provides us incredible aesthetic experience. Their works pose important questions, reflect the problems of reality nad sometimes are simply the result of exploding creative imagination. Street art in Krakow has a short but rich history. Absolutely fantastic murals, made by artists from Poland, Israel, France and Italy appear in different neighborhoods, delighting locals and tourists

We want to invite You for Krakow tour unlike any other. Our guides will show You completely different face of the city. We will go for a walk in Zabłocie and Kazimierz. First of these two districts is a postindustrial area, the second one has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. Zabłocie with its former factory buildings grows into one of the most important cultural centers in Krakow (there is located, among others, the Museum of Contemporary Art.). Kazimierz – the Jewish district impresses with its historical charm and artistic climate. However, during this unique Krakow sightseeing we shall not enter into any of the museums along the way. Art has gone beyond the walls of the galleries long time ago and we will go to look for it on the streets. During the sightseeing our Krakow travel guide will show You 18 masterpieces of Street Art. Experience this extraordinary adventure with us!

During our expedition You will have the opportunity to talk about the artistic impressions at the dinner in the climatic restaurant. What could be more pleasant?

Guided tour in English, German, Swedish or Polish

Tour adjusted to the age, interest and needs. Your anticipations will be our top priority!
