It's a great hunt, good questions. We were surprosed there were no riddles abiuy St Mary's Basilica and Cloth Hall, though. It feels like those are vital for the city history, it's a little strange that they are not included. Other than that, great experience! I'd recommend to explore Krakow this way.
