It includes a four-course meal of starters, soup, a main course and dessert, plus two types of Polish vodka. The guide also tells you about the monuments you pass. The minimum age is 5.

Beer tour

A walk of about two and a half hours through three bars, including a brewpub that brews on site in the basement.
