Hello all,
I've booked a trip to Krakow the end of this month for myself and my 13 year old son. I've never really travelled alone before, have a terrible sense of direction and to be honest a little nervous travelling as the only adult in case it all goes wrong.
I have a few questions (which are probably stupid) but it would be great to have some info and feel better informed.
We are staying 3 nights but only really works out as 2 full days, so I want to get things organised in advance if possible.
We are staying here in Old Krakow town at this location...

So my questions...
- Can anyone recommend places to visit in the Old Town? The reviews state that there are things to do in walking distance.
- We want to Visit Auswitch...I've somehow gone wrong here because I checked distance when booked and thought it was around half hour away from our hotel. Apparently not. So a taxi will probably cost a fortune and presumably we want to do an excursion/tour/arranged trip. How am I best booking this? Anyone have recommendations? Will we be able to book via the hotel? I have emailed them and awaiting a reply.
- also want to visit the salt mines, again how is best to do this? Via a trip/excursion.
I'm worried about booking things and it all going wrong. So I'd love any advice please. Thank you.
