First off, our bad for not reading ALL the details of the game and what was required to download. The ONLY major issue with these clues was the weather! One of the final clues/questions required there to be a clean walkway. The snow and frozen area wasn’t ideal, but we made it work!

Elizabeth was an amazing tour guide, she was so interesting and fun. the tour was very worthwhile and her local knowledge was outstanding.

I had a little delay because I was on the other side of the town but the guide waited for me to come. I really appreciated that.

Really brilliant! Some gory history and a night time walk was a well spent 2hrs!

Nice walk around krakow with some good stories to suit.
