General:
There is a lot about Krakow your hen party will find extremely interesting. As the Cultural center of Poland, it was spared the horrendous destruction the rest of Poland suffered during the war. Because of this, your hen do will be amazed to see all of the historic buildings and architecture in Krakow left intact through the centuries. Another fact, a favorite of all hen parties, is that this city is more densely populated with bars than anywhere in the world. What this means is that your friends can view some amazing sights in this beautiful city, and party like you never have before.
Krakow Facts:
Your hen do will gain a lot of knowledge about Krakow during walks throughout the city. However, there are some facts you may not come across. First of all, in the year 2000, Krakow was named “European City of Culture”. Your hen party will, in all probability, venture into “Old Town” which is a “World Heritage” site. There is no problem telling the difference in Krakow seasons. The weather can best be described as cold in springtime, followed by a warm and sunny summer. Fall time arrives which is normally foggy, followed by a freezing winter. No, your Krakow Hen Weekend will not experience tropical weather. What it will experience is a Krakow that is rich in history and loves to get out and party.
Transportation & Accommodations:
As in any other city of over 700,000, hen dos will find Krakow offers a public transportation system that will assist them in seeing the local sites. Cabs are available, but when it comes to seeing city centre, it is always suggested hen party members walk so as not to miss a thing. With advanced notice, Krakow will greet your group at the airport and ensure your hen weekend group experience no problems reaching their various destinations during their stay. If your party is wondering about lodging, Krakow has some beautiful luxury hotels as well as places that are less stressful on your budget.
Krakow’s Days:
Any hen do visiting Krakow appreciates the shopping available in this diversified city. Your hen weekend will be pleased to find large Department stores as well as small specialty shops. If you are a little on the edgy side, there are trendy boutiques that will more than satisfy your shopping needs. If your girls are more on the active side, there are some great paintballing facilities. Love the thrill of a race? Try go-cart racing at one of the indoor tracks. Krakow also has pistol shooting ranges as well as “Quad Snow Rafting” venues.
Nighttime:
If your Krakow Hen Weekend is wondering where to start their evening out, might I suggest the “Old Town” area. Once there, you will find over 400, yes I said 400, places to party. Your hen weekend will quickly discover establishments of every type imaginable. If you want live music for dancing, you won’t be disappointed. Should your taste lean more toward DJ music, small crowed bars, quiet laid-back places or even exploration of your raunchy side you won’t be disappointed.
Food and Drink:
England has it’s ale, Italy has it’s wine. Poland, Krakow, is where you find the Vodka. There is a favorite called “Miodawa” that is honey flavored. As potent as any Vodka has the right to be, it is very capable of shortening your memories of this fun weekend, if you catch my drift. Any hen party will appreciate the wide selection of eating establishments. Fine dining is available throughout Krakow, along with many small cafes serving some great local food. Your girls should try a favorite sausage dish called “Krakowska”, and a soup known as “ZureK”.
