Senior Travel in Krakow
Edit ThisIf you are organizing a Krakow senior travel trip, then it is important that you consider a lot of things first before you visit this city in Poland. Krakow has a lot of interesting places that both children and adult will enjoy. However, if you are traveling with a senior, then extra care should be considered because the metropolis of Krakow can be very busy. Here are some of the travel ideas that you can use while traveling to Krakow with a senior.
Getting Around
If you are traveling with a senior, then taking the taxi is the best option that you have. The best thing about traveling around Krakow in a taxi is that you do not need to read the difficult and confusing road signs in Krakow. However, if you are going to travel in a taxi, you need to make sure that you book for it a day before, as taxis in Krakow are very indispensable and there are only a few companies that operate around the city. Unfortunately, getting senior discounts for your fare is only applicable to locals.
The Hotel Senacki
So as not to overburden the senior traveler with riding long distances, you need to make sure that you stay in a hotel that is located in the center of the city. One such hotel where you can stay in is the Hotel Senacki, which is a three-star hotel with five-star services. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the hotel also offers room service for seniors who just want to dine inside their rooms.
Tour Groups
There are a lot of tour groups that are organized around the many tourist sites in Krakow. For instance, you can join the tour group in Wawel Castle. The tour group is the best way for senior travelers to also interact with other travelers. The tour group can also supply wheel chairs for senior travelers who are no longer capable of walking long distances.
Healthy Eating
The diet of senior travelers should be considered, and that is why they should always eat at restaurants that serve healthy meals. One such restaurant that they can go to is the Café Milkynek which is both a gallery and a restaurant in one. The food served here is purely vegan, thus giving healthy options to the elderly diner.
Medications
It would also be wise to be informed about the various emergency centers in Krakow. If you are from any European country, you can carry your E111 issued in your country. You might alternatively also want to carry your European health Insurance Card along with you while you travel to Krakow.
