Kraków's reputation
Kraków is Europe's stag-party capital — and that has shaped the adult scene more than tourism itself has. The legitimate market is smaller than Warsaw's but capable; the scam market layered onto it is enormous.
The stag-party scam ecosystem
Promotional staff in central Old Town offer "free entry" to "exclusive bars". Tabs of EUR 500–2,000 follow, with security enforcing collection. The classic clip-joint pattern. Avoid anyone offering you "discount" anything on the street.
The real scene
Independent apartment-based providers via Roxy24 and Polish directories. Pricing PLN 350–700 standard, less than Warsaw. Agencies mostly serve corporate stag/bachelor parties — premium pricing, tighter screening.
Logistics
Kraków-Balice Airport (KRK) 11 km from centre; train PLN 17. Old Town walkable. Bolt for taxis; never accept the "hotel taxi tout" who follows you out.
Avoid
Promotional staff in Floriańska and Rynek Główny. Bars with curtains, bouncers, and no posted prices. "Models" or "hostesses" on dating apps who immediately steer you to a bar.
