Activity itinerary

River Vistula Krakow

  • 1h
Begin your adventure with a relaxing cruise along the Vistula River Admire all the most important places in Krakow from the Vistula River. See Krakow from a new perspective as you follow the flow of the queen of Polish rivers.

Kosciuszko's Mound (Kopiec Kosciuszki) (Pass by)

The Kościuszko Mound in Krakow, one of the five mounds located in Krakow, was erected in honour of Tadeusz Kościuszko - a great patriot and leader of the national uprising.

Monastery of the Norbertan Sisters (Pass by)

Fortified like a castle, this mighty monastery, founded in the 12th century, was destroyed and rebuilt several times. The most important Krakow traditions are also associated with it: here, on Monday after Easter, the annual Emmaus festival is celebrated. Hence, the Lajkonik procession - the most important symbol of Krakow - sets off every June

Wawel Royal Castle (Pass by)

The limestone hill rising above the Vistula River is the former centre of power, the legendary (associated with the mythical founder of Krakow and his descendants) and historical: princely, episcopal and royal. Wawel is a complex of castle and sacred buildings - a symbol of the city, but most of all a museum presenting the most valuable monuments of Polish material culture. Take a good look and you will also notice the silhouette of the famous Wawel dragon breathing fire towards onlookers.

Museum of Japanese Art and Technology (Pass by)

The original, modern form of the building housing the museum of art and technology is perfectly seen from the river level. The wavy line of its roof is to refer directly to the waves of the Vistula River

Church on the Rock (Kosciol na Skalce) (Pass by)

The baroque church of Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Stanislaus on Skałka rises above the boulevards, right on the Vistula River, on a small hill made of white Jurassic limestones. The basilica is also a national pantheon (many distinguished painters, musicians and poets are buried here) and a library with priceless documents, books and incunabula.
