Krakow, a cultural jewel in Poland, entices LGBTQ+ travelers with its unique fusion of history and modernity. Known for its beautiful medieval architecture, this urban area, while traditionally conservative, is behind becoming more welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community. Its growing number of LGBTQ+ friendly venues and events make it worth exploring for queer travelers seeking both culture and community.

We will take you on a 5-day gay organization tour of Krakow. Krakow is probably the most beautiful city in Poland: romantic and inspiring, a fairytale setting. The largest medieval square in Europe in the heart of Krakow is surrounded by magnificent Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau buildings. A castle that appears in lists of the most beautiful castles in Europe. A century-old salt mine that is a work of art for chambers and galleries.
A historic center where horse-drawn carriages share the cobbled streets with the population. Krakow is also an excellent base for visiting the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau.

The growing student population both energizes cafes and nightclubs and fills concert halls, museums and galleries.
Although little, Krakow also has a fantastic gay night.
