About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Ewan M0 contributionsAbsolutely recommended!This was easily one of our favourite parts of our trip to Kraków; the cycle itself was lovely and at a nice and easy pace to appreciate all the sights as we travelled. We were able to see a wide variety of sections of the city and learn a lot of extra information about the history of each place which we hadn't noticed on our first go around. This is also well worth doing later on in the trip as although we'd spent a lot of time exploring on foot prior to the tour, our guide Mike really helped flesh out a lot of history in the places we'd seen as well as answering any further questions we had about things we'd seen along the way. The cherry on top was our deputy tour-guide Ramsey coming along for the ride!Written 4 December 2024
- 891albyf0 contributionsA must for your first visit to KrakowWe throughly enjoyed the tour, guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about his city and would highly recommend this tour which we felt was great value for money.Written 1 December 2024
- LuvWandering0 contributionsHighly RecommendedAwesome tour with Mike! He was immensely versed in the history, lore, and pop culture of the city. Accommodated us on a cold day, with an earlier stop for lunch so we could warm up. This was a fantastic way to see a city rich in history.Written 20 November 2024
- lesleydrummond10 contributionsOne of the best bike city tours we have been onWe have been on a quite a few city bike tours but this was one of the best we have been on . Mike was fantastic - knowledgeable and good fun - and a great stop for lunch where you could have as a little or as much as you wanted half way through . As it’s November it was a quiet tour ( in fact just the 2 of us and mikes dog !)- can’t thank him enough for not cancelling - it would have been such a miss and we would have missed much of the city dong it on our own. He also does other tours of the salt mines and auschwitz - wish we were doing those with him - a lot of the comments on other tours are things change at the last minute - this was well communicated and no changes - highly recommend !Written 19 November 2024
- O757SOamyb0 contributionsFun way to see different parts of the cityGreat way to see multiple areas of Krakow! I especially liked seeing some treasures I wouldn't have seen on my own - like the moving wooden characters at the university that only come out at certain times of the day - our guide planned our trip well so we could see them! Be sure to dress warm in November!Written 15 November 2024
- Stanissa130 contributionsRecommendDid this tour with two 70year olds & four teenagers. Throughly enjoyed by everyone. The guide was great & very knowledgeable, it’s a brilliant way to see the city & gain knowledge of the history. Lunch stop was at a small cafe/bar lovely food with good choice.Written 1 November 2024
- lisenl20180 contributionsBrilliant!Mike and Ramsey! Ramsey was 4 today and Mike had his 19th anniversary! I can not recommend Mike + dog enough! Such a fantastic day out, so much to learn & take in! Thank you so much for a fantastic day!Written 28 October 2024
- ndtal0 contributionsAbsolute must do for a visit to Krakow!Mike was a really great guide. We had very limited time and felt like we got to see more of the city than we otherwise would have managed. I would love to come back another time and see more. Book this for the first day of your visit. You will be so glad you did. Also, none of us had ridden a Segway before, and it was not a problem. Easy and fun!Written 26 October 2024
- K2081URhollyl0 contributionsBest bike tourGreat tour. We covered a lot of ground and learned a lot. Mike is an incredibly knowledgeable tour guide. The small group size was a huge plus. We highly recommend!!Written 15 October 2024

- F6141DNcolind0 contributionsA must do bike tourIf you are short on time and want to get a decent snapshot of Krakow I cannot recommend this company enough. A four hour bike tour flew by with a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide - regular stops, suitable for any person who can ride a bike without falling off - plenty of interesting facts and information at each stop - my advice take the bike tour at the beginning of your stay in Krakow and you will not be short of places to revisit at your leisureWritten 6 October 2024
- 490noelp0 contributionsFantastic tour 10/10If you want to get to see all the best that Krakow has to offer, while learning the history of the city along the way, then Cruising Krakow tours is definitely a must. Mike the tour guide and his assistant Ramses were brilliant. So knowledgeable and friendly. It took almost four hours to complete the tour with a pit stop for a delicious lunch along the way. There’s no better way to spend an afternoon in this amazing city.Written 6 October 2024
- Ntaria E0 contributionsGreat tourIncredible tour guide with the best assistant. Very informative and entertaining, we were able to see most of the city in just a few hoursWritten 3 October 2024

Chris was a great guide as my wife and I pedaled from the center of Old Town Krakow out of the city and along the Vistula River deep into the Polish countryside to visit Tyniec Abbey. The weather was perfect, the bikes solid, and Chris was simply outstanding. His patience with us and his in-depth knowledge of the area, its history, social significance, and ghost stories made for a perfect day. Highly recommended to all.

Finally after two years pandemic, we were able to ride the Bike tour to Tyniec Abbey with Chris. A very pleasant experienced guide, who took us on a cold and windy afternoon tot Tyniec. He told us the stories we needed to hear, was funny when we needed the humor, helped us when we got lost. Tyniec was worth while, beautiful scenery and monestary. The road back was at dirst very beautiful, the last part through the suburbs of Krakow wasn't that inspiring, but on the whole this ride is worthwhile the effort, even for the cheating one at the back :). Thank you Chris!

My partner and I did the countryside and Abbey bike tour this afternoon with Chris. We were blessed with good weather and gorgeous autumnal landscapes. After winding briefly through the city, we made our way onto a bike path and from there it was a pleasant, scenic cycle along the Vistula River. The abbey itself was stunning, and it was really fascinating to learn about its history. Many thanks to Chris our tour guide who was friendly and knowledgeable. An absolutely memorable experience - highly recommend!

We did the Polish Countryside and Tyniec Abbey tour and Chris was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, friendly and also patient😁. The tour basically followed the Vistula river on the way out and circled back through a forest so gave us an excellent view of the area surrounding Krakow on this side of the city. The E Bikes we used were a blessing for the two of us as we are just on the senior side of being young🤭. The stops were well paced with Chris giving wonderful commentary on the history and legends of Krakow and it’s surrounds. Highly recommend this tour.

This tour was impressive. We cycled 30 km on electric bikes through the outskirts and countryside of Krakow. To make it better, it was a lovely day, so we could go at a leisurely pace through a beautiful bike trail along the Vistula, a medieval abbey, some villages, a small forest and a massive living area and industrial park around the new university campus.
Chris, our guide, gave us insight on the life of ordinary Krakowians. He shared his views and thoughts about the past, present and future of the city. We got to see the Krakow tourists don’t usually see.
The pace is relaxed, but steady. There are a few hills, but the electric bikes made them quite easy. There is also some cycling into traffic, dirt trails and very windy areas, so a level of Cycling proficiency is needed.

This bicycle tour was a wonderful way to see the countryside between Krakow and the Tyniec Monastery. The ride was mostly along good bike trails following the Vistula River to the monastery, then back to Krakow through some beautiful countryside and small towns. We stopped frequently for historic information and the telling of local legends, very informative. I highly recommend this trip!

We recently enjoyed a lovely afternoon bike ride along the Vistula River to the Tyniec Abby with Chris as our guide. He was engaging and informative, and considerate of our biking abilities (limited!). The Abby and surrounding grounds were beautiful, and afforded beautiful views of the river valley below. The initial wind and rain we experienced did nothing to detract from our overall enjoyment. Chris even offered dining and sightseeing advice at the conclusion of our ride. It's a great way to spend part of your visit to Krakow. We highly recommend!
