The market is rich in handmade goods and traditional Easter items, alongside a wonderful variety of Polish Easter foods and regional treats. Live music and folk performances fill the air with traditional sounds, while local craft displays offer a chance to connect with Polish customs. This short break includes a guided walking tour of Kraków’s Old Town, as well as three half-day workshops with your expert. Free afternoons can be spent on our optional excursions to Auschwitz-Birkenau and the Wieliczka Salt Mines, or exploring the Easter market – bursting with spring colours, fresh flowers, and the sense of seasonal renewal that Easter represents in Poland.

Having escaped destruction during World War II, Kraków has retained much of its medieval charm. This morning’s walking tour includes Rynek Główny, Kraków’s central market square, which, at 40,000 square metres, is the largest in Europe. Surrounded by elegant townhouses and medieval palaces, the square is home to the Cloth Hall (Sukiennice) and St Mary’s Church, both of which we will explore today.
The Cloth Hall, originally opened in the 13th century as a bustling market packed with stalls, was later rebuilt in Renaissance style and became an important international trade centre. The 14th-century St Mary’s Church is one of Kraków’s most famous attractions. A highlight of its interior is the 12-metre-long wooden altarpiece by Veit Stoss, featuring over 15 carved figures – the largest of its kind in Europe.
This afternoon, enjoy your first workshop in the hotel with Anna.
