Polish wine tasting in Old Town
We had an enjoyable time with Bart tasting and learning about Polish wines. This tour visits 3 different wine bars in the Old Town, where you taste different Polish wines at each stop, while learning about the Polich wine industry. Given this was off-season in September, it turned into a private tasting with just my wife and I. Many times these tours will get cancelled at last minute when attendance is low, but Bart and operator VeloWino did not cancel, which we really appreciated and illustrates their character and commitment. We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in tasting Polish wines!

Disappointing and Poorly Organized Wine Tour
We were a group of nine women and had Bartek as our guide. Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to our expectations. The tour started at 5:00 PM at the first venue, which was located upstairs in what felt like a dark and rather gloomy attic space. There was very little light, and the atmosphere was far from welcoming or inviting. It was not a pleasant setting for the start of a wine-tasting experience. We had our first wine there, and Bartek spent almost an hour talking about just this one wine and its history. Unfortunately, he seemed quite inexperienced and unsure about some of the information, and relied heavily on a booklet, often reading directly from it. When we moved on to the next place, we explained that we had a dinner reservation at 8:00 PM and therefore needed to finish the tour before then. At the second venue, we tasted two wines accompanied by a cheese board. This part was very enjoyable – the wine and cheese were good, and the venue itself was lovely. However, the timing and organization continued to be quite chaotic. Bartek did not have a watch and seemed to have very little awareness of the schedule. At 7:40 PM, we were only just leaving for the final bar. We were served another wine there, but had so little time left that we couldn’t even finish it before having to leave for our dinner reservation. When we pointed this out, the response was simply that we could arrive ten minutes late. The tour ended up taking much longer than planned, yet we still did not get to taste everything that was supposed to be included. Bartek also seemed unsure about which wines we were being served on several occasions. On a positive note, Bartek was very friendly and pleasant throughout the tour. However, considering the price, we expected a much more professional, knowledgeable and well-organized experience. Unfortunately, based on our experience, I would not book this tour again, especially at this price point.

Brilliant Tour
Brilliant tour, Tomasz was very friendly and knowledgeable and we had a very enjoyable time tasting Polish Wines! Lovely charcuterie boards to accompany made for a super activity on our girls trip!
Response from the operator: Thanks Kelda and Team - we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with these wines. And the intro to orange wines was a rewarding moment for me. Safe journeys! Tomasz

Avoid the guide, Bartek
It was an atrocious experience. The guide, Bartek, was just bad. We were a group of 3 and it turned out to be a private tour as there was no one else joining us. Excited about that prospect? Yes! Was it worth it? Big fat no! Bartek was reading from a book, very low energy and at the first wine bar proceeded to inform us that the wine from a local manufacturer, Kamil, tasted like a riesling to which the owner of the establishment interjected and said that it was nothing like a riesling. Tasted the wine and it was not. It became a joke after that. He was searching for some pictures of a wine in his book for a while and could not find it. I promptly left after the first stop and my friends followed soon after. It was a total waste of time and I am surprised by the many positive reviews ... until I realized that the positive reviews did not have Bartek as the guide. So if you are planning on going, make sure that you do not get Bartek!

We recommend this tour with Magda
Magda was lovely and we very much enjoyed hearing her family vineyard stories and her knowledge of wines. The wine bar locations were very nice. We had a great evening of good fun and laughs, and would recommend this tour to others.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much, Julie. Compliments for such a fine taste - Polish wines are not among the most popular in the world 😉 Enjoy them while here!

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Krakow.
How much does Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars cost?
+
Prices start at $92 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Krakow usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Krakow is not rushed.
Is Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Krakow, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Krakow can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Krakow and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Krakow within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Krakow?
+
On Outty we rank every Krakow experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Complete Cracow Bike Tour (small group of maximum 15 people!), Krakow–Zakopane: Cable Car, Chocholow Baths, Cheese & Vodka, Krakow to Auschwitz Birkenau Guided Tour with Transfer and Ticket. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Krakow?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Krakow?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars?
+
Included: Alcoholic beverages; and Snacks. Not included: Zapiekanka - small Polish pizza (20 PLN). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars?
+
Winosfera wine bar in a beautiful town square. We meet inside. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Guided Walking Tour in Krakow Wine Bars?
+
