Absolutely loved everything. The food. The scenery. The clean streets. The river. The Christmas decorations. The cathedral. The palace. I liked Auschwitz for history. There is lots to do and see. You could do it really cheap and it’s cheap when you’re there. Lots of tours too!
Posted: July 11, 2025I felf very safe. Its the capital of the country so its a little more expensive than other places but I hear that for travelers its still pretty cheap place. You have a lot of historia building to see if youre interested

I visited Krakow twice and both times I wasn't disappointed. It may be that I'm from the CZ (and PL is similar) but I always felt at home & safe. The people were nice & the sights were beautiful in this historic place. I highly recommend visiting the museum of Schindler's Factory especially if you like history, Wieliczka salt mines and the historical city centre. The food here is typical Slavic/central European cuisine but there's also plenty of restaurants which offer various other meals. We got around by car which was kinda long so if you can, park near the centre and go on foot, even walking through the city is a beautiful experience 😍❤️🇵🇱
Posted: July 3, 2025Experienced: August, 2024In general, Zakopane is very crowded with tourists all year round. There are beautiful views and many interesting trails to visit. It is hard to find a good restaurant and the prices are high. The views make up for everything

I felt safe during my stay. I was there for one year and visited with my friends the diffent cities (almost all of them hahaha) It's not an expensive country and transport is really cheap for international students, for example train tickets for 4€, 20 at most if you want to go to the opposite side of the country It's true that at night during winter there is absolutely no one, so I wouldn't go out at night alone, some catcalling here and there from drunken men depending on the street at night.
Posted: June 19, 2025A random guy followed us. We were really afraid. I think he was a homeless guy. We delibaretly went into a church to get rid of him. But when we went outside after almost ten minutes, he was still there.

I am now working as a intern in krakow. It's my first days, so I am not completely aware of the safety but for now it is really safe. I did not come across any harassment or any other uncomfortable stuffs
Posted: July 11, 2025I feel generally safe living here, I often get scared, but it's because I generally don't feel safe as a woman. I have seen some stories about people getting mugged and weird people, but I only have seen drunk/homeless people in the city centre, who like to interact with people but are rather harmless.
