The Vodka Tasting Tour allows you to taste seven of Poland's best vodkas (everything from prestige quality clear, traditional herbal or spiced and modern flavored varieties e.g., hazelnut, salted caramel, strawberry etc.). It also includes a stop for traditional Polish dumplings (a must-try in Kraków) in one of the best foodie joints, as well as tasty Polish-style tapas. With this tour you will visit five different venues and have a greater range of vodkas to select from (one of the venues stocks 120 varieties alone, another has over 30 incredible home-made vodkas and is likely the only vodka shop of its type in Europe). The tour lasts roughly 2.5h, although sometimes the guides end up drinking with the guests later at the last bar if they like to try more vodkas.The whole idea of the vodka tasting is to give travelers an introduction to Kraków and Poland that involves a tasty mix of culture, history and so much more than a good bit of drinking. There are loads of funny stories to tell, and we keep the history part short and sweet. The guides are super passionate about Polish vodka and Kraków in general, so it's always a good idea to grill them on anything you might be interested in.The tips you will receive can be the difference between having a good weekend and having an incredible weekend in Poland. Everything you'd want to know about the best bars, restaurants, museums or which bottles of vodka to bring home for presents.
