Question 1

What are the major attractions in Krakow?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Krakow is all locked in but your travel itinerary is looking a bit empty, we can give you a few hints and tips.

Think of Krakow and then say the first thing that pops into your head. Bet you said "Main Market Square," right? Being such a well-known landmark, you just can't miss it. Throw your suitcases into the trunk and tick it off your bucket list.

Discover the best that this place has to offer by adding Cloth Hall and St. Mary's Basilica to your must-see list. If you have an extra day to spare, swing by Town Hall Tower and Collegium Maius as well.

Not too far from the city center, Tauron Arena Kraków is one spot you might like to consider putting on your must-see list. If you still have some room on your schedule, Dragon's Den and ICE Krakow Congress Centre will keep you amused too.

Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Krakow?

Accepted Answer

Nothing spells fun like a good ol' road trip, especially when you're venturing somewhere as exciting as Krakow. With renowned attractions like Main Market Square and Wawel Castle, there's so much to see in so little time. That's where a rental car works its magic. You'll be able to check off loads more places — but reserve something small for easy city driving, like a mini. If you don't want to tackle the urban jungle, Lesser Poland Voivodeship is full of natural wonders. Ditch the zippy car for something bigger, like an SUV, and discover the most spectacular caves.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Krakow?

Accepted Answer

First of all, there's a great range of both economy and luxury rental vehicles in Krakow. What you end up going for depends on what you're willing to spend and what you're hoping to do. Prestige vehicles offer the best in comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not pick a high-end SUV, or perhaps an upmarket mid-size sedan? Otherwise, if you're just after a set of wheels to get from A to B as efficiently as possible, we can help you out with a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).
