FAQs

Yes, Krakow is generally very safe for tourists. Like any city, use common sense and be aware of your surroundings, especially at night.

The best time to visit is May to September for warm weather, or December for Christmas markets. Spring and fall offer fewer crowds and lower prices.

3-4 days is ideal to see the main sights. This allows time for Old Town, Wawel Castle, and a day trip to Auschwitz or the Wieliczka Salt Mine.

Yes, English is widely spoken in tourist areas, hotels, and restaurants. Many younger Poles speak good English, but learning a few Polish phrases is appreciated.

The easiest ways are by train (20 minutes), airport shuttle bus (40 minutes), or taxi (20-30 minutes). The train is generally the quickest and most cost-effective option.

PR How much do you think it would cost to stay in a place like this?! The villa has 6 ensuite bedrooms and is ideal for a group of friends or big multigenerational family. It’s only a 4 minute drive to Amalfi Town and has some lovely restaurants close by. The villa team helped arrange our transfer from Naples making the whole trip really easy. 

If you have 12 people sharing the cost, using an example in May, it would be £142pp/pn - which for this super luxury experience is very reasonable! If you’re looking for a real treat you cannot go wrong with this place. I’ve spoken with the owner and they have offered our audience 10% off - just quote THETRAVELMUM when enquiring via DM or email ❤️You can find the villa here: @villasantacroceamalficoast_
