Across Europe, the holiday season is more than lights and gifts — it's a cherished time when centuries-old traditions come to life through music, markets, and unforgettable flavors. What makes each region's celebration so distinct? From sipping warm vin chaud in a medieval square to listening to carols drift through candlelit cathedrals, it’s time to uncover the stories, rituals, and sensory magic that define a truly European Christmas.

Join New York Adventure Club for a festive four-part series exploring the sights, sounds, and spirit of Europe’s most beloved Christmas markets and holiday traditions. In Part Four: Kraków, we’ll journey to Poland’s cultural capital to experience the rich folklore, festive warmth, and timeless beauty of one of Europe’s most atmospheric holiday destinations.

Led by tour guide Kelsey Betzelberger, this experience — featuring plenty of firsthand photo and video walkthroughs, intriguing anecdotes, and expert insights — will include:

• Main Market Square — A walk through Rynek Główny, Kraków’s historic heart, aglow with lights, towering trees, and stalls brimming with handmade treasures
• Polish Flavors — A taste of comforting seasonal fare like pierogi with mushrooms and cabbage, smoky oscypek cheese with cranberry, and warm grzaniec galicyjski mulled wine
• Szopki Krakowskie — A look at the city’s dazzling, UNESCO-recognized nativity cribs — miniature palaces crafted from foil, glass, and color, unique to Kraków
• Carols & Folk Music — An introduction to Poland’s Christmas soundtrack, blending church bells, folk instruments, and traditional kolędy sung in festive harmony
• Artisan Markets — A glimpse at the craftsmanship behind handmade wooden toys, ornaments, and decorations that reflect Poland’s deep creative traditions

Afterward, we'll have a Q&A with Kelsey — any and all questions are welcomed and encouraged!
