1.Polish Folk Show with All-You-Can-Eat Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,593 reviews · 150 minutes - 3 hours · from $50Our pick

Review of Krakow’s Polish folk show with dinner, unlimited drinks, live dancing, Lake Kryspinów views, transport, and practical tips.

“Such a lovely night! The pick up was fairly straightforward and easy to find. We were asked before boarding the coach if we had any dietary requirements. The food was really good, I’m veggie and was served borscht (beetroot soup) for my starter and pierogi (dumplings) for my main. My partner had a sausage soup and a schnitzel for main. There is also a buffet to pick from after the main as well as self serve drinks. The traditional Polish music and dancing was really entertaining to watch and there was also the option to join in if you wanted. Would definitely recommend this activity!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 381 reviews · 3 to 4 hours (approx.) · from $95

Taste 10-plus Polish dishes in Warsaw’s Old Town, with history, vodka shots, restaurant stops, and a guide-led walk.

“This was a basic introduction to Polish cuisine - mostly pork, cabbage, pierogies, a flavored vodka tasting, frosted donuts. It would have been nice to hear some background about the origins and history of Polish food and its relation to the country's culture and history. But our guide, while a lovely, gracious fellow, had only been in Poland about a year. So he couldn't really impart much detail about the food or background of the restaurants we visited. We also had to walk a very long way to get to 2 of the 5 establishments on the tour. Other food tours we've done were more compact in their route which…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 22 reviews · 2 hours · from $69

Enjoy a Polish regional dinner, folk music, mulled wine, and evening Vistula views of Wawel Castle in this two-hour Krakow experience.

“Terrible experience! Cut a long story short we arrived at the location and were informed by a waiter that the river cruise is cancelled due to lack of staff and they offered us unlimited mulled wine instead. They gave us vouchers to use for the cruise to use on another day so we closed one eye. Shortly after, we realized that there will not be any live music/entertainment, nothing! The only positive thing was that when we complained to the waiter and manager they gave us the money back but we still wasted 1.5/2 hours of our vacation!”
