Family Trip – Kraków and surroundings
It might seem that Kraków is reserved for visitors who admire history, architecture, religious art, etc.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Attractions for children and the youngest are numerous here: the mirror labyrinth, museum of living butterflies or the Wawel Dragon Cave.
A 45 minutes drive takes you from Kraków to another world with various attractions: an enormous amusement park with the largest roller-coaster in Europe, Park of Animatronic Dinosaurs, Giant Insects Park, Ancient Mythology Park, an Indian Village and truly magical rancho where you can spend night like real cowboys.
These and more attractions are for families seeking entertainment and education combined in one holiday.
