The Krakow food tour that feels like dinner, drinks, and a local friend
3 hours through Old Town · 6+ Polish tastings, pierogi, cherry liqueur and 2–3 Polish shots · small social group led by a local guide. Perfect for your first night in Krakow.





The Krakow food tour that actually feels like a night out with a local
Food, stories, a few drinks and a route that shows you the city. A calm social start — not a chaotic pub crawl.
6+ tastings chosen by people who actually eat here: pierogi, street food, cherry liqueur, and 2–3 Polish shots.
The food-and-drinks format makes conversation easy. Solo travelers routinely leave with new friends.
Legends, history, and context you would never find on your own — told like a friend, not a lecture.



Three hours that go by like one.
Not a guided march. A small group, a local who knows the corners, six tastings that build from warm pierogi to cherry-bright shots — with stories in between that stick.
- 0:00Meet your guide in the Old TownA small group finds each other under the clock — no huddle, no lecture, just hellos and the first walk.
- 0:15Pierogi, the way locals eat themHot from the kitchen, paired with a story about why Krakow still argues over the dough.
- 0:45Through the lanes, with the legendsYour guide turns corners into chapters — dragons, kings, and which courtyard the students claim at 2am.
- 1:15The street-food stop you’d walk pastA window in a wall, a cook who knows your guide by name, a bite you’ll still be talking about tomorrow.
- 1:50Cherry liqueur + Polish shotsThe part where the group stops being strangers. Two or three flavored shots and one sweet cherry finish.
- 2:30Relaxed finish — leave when you wantMost people stay for one more. You’ll walk off with tips for where to go next and, usually, new company.

What real guests say
“Martyna was a great guide. She was knowledgeable, open to questions, and her English was great! Would absolutely recommend this tour with her as your tour guide!”
“We had a great tour with Jason! Good food and interesting facts around Krakow.”
“Oskar was fantastic - knowledgeable, friendly and fun. There was plenty of food and shots along the way and it lasted a great length of time. Felt like great value for money and would definitely recommend as a way to discover Krakow and the local delicacies.”
“The Tipsy Food Tour in Kraków was a great mix of local food, drinks, and a relaxed, social atmosphere. We got to try a variety of traditional dishes and regional alcohol, all while exploring different parts of the city. The pace was perfect not rushed, but never boring and each stop felt well chosen and authentic. The highlight of the tour was definitely our guide, Wiktoria. She was absolutely incredible, funny, energetic, and clearly passionate about what she does. She made everyone feel comfortable and turned the whole experience into something much more than just a food tour. Overall, it’s a fantastic way to experience Kraków from a different perspective. Great food, great vibe, and an unforgettable guide.”
“Martyna was an excellent guide who was very informative about the history of Kraków and it was the right balance of tipsy and culture. For our first time visiting Poland this was a must do and will recommend highly to others!”
“Had a great experience on this food walking tour! Our guide Kinga was super friendly, engaging, and made a real effort to connect with everyone in the group. She introduced us to a wide range of Polish dishes and shared interesting stories and local legends along the way, which made the whole experience feel immersive and personal. It felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by a knowledgeable friend who genuinely loves the culture and food. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it. Just something to keep in mind, there is quite a lot of alcohol involved as part of the tastings, so come prepared!”
