Traveler reviews
Not recommended, boring
So I state that we did not have a Physical Guide but the Audio Guide which to be honest was quite boring, talked a lot and sometimes useless things and was very repetitive, sometimes certainly also said facts and things interested but it was all mostly boring. And I want to say DO NOT TAKE THE TICKET TO THE DRANGON’S DEN (aka the famous Wawel dragon cave) it’s literally 10 minutes of spiral stairs to go down and you go through a “cave” where you just take a shower because the condensation makes the ceiling drip and you just finally get out of the castle, it’s more stair time than anything else. I wouldn't do it again overall
Wawel Palace
Absolutely fantastic! I would recommend it. Our guide was very informative and knowledgeable. Perfect English no issues to understand At all. Very punctual without delay.
