Extremely knowledgeable...
Maarten_V, Jun 2023
Extremely knowledgeable guide. No photography/video allowed inside the cathedral, so be prepared for that. A good, standard tour of a historical site.
Guide was extreme...

Guide was extreme knowledgeable. Would be helpful to read up a little on polish history, but if not no problem.
