About Kraków for Solo Travelers
Poland's royal capital with the largest medieval square in Europe — solo travelers walk from the Wawel Castle to the Jewish Kazimierz quarter to Schindler's Factory and find a city that holds a century of the 20th century's most dramatic history.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Kraków is one of Europe's great solo cities — the Rynek Główny (main market square, the largest medieval square in Europe) is the natural solo gathering point, the Wawel Castle and Cathedral are extraordinary, and the Kazimierz Jewish Quarter is deeply moving and culturally rich. Auschwitz-Birkenau (1.5 hours by bus) is an essential and profoundly important solo half-day. The vodka and pierogi culture makes solo evenings in Kazimierz very social and very affordable.
