Escorted Tours of Poland 2019

 

With its rich history, breathtaking scenery, unique shopping, and impressive architecture, Poland is one of the best-kept secrets for vacationing in Europe. In the warmer months, lush green countryside surrounds picturesque cities brimming with culture, food, and sightseeing. Winter turns that same countryside into a snowy wonderland, but the cold only makes Poland's hearty meals and bustling shopping districts all the more exciting. Twenty-three national parks offer the great outdoors, as does the one-thousand-year-old Wieliczka Salt Mine. This is a country that has brought beautiful art, poetry, and music to the world—and has also had its share of war and other challenges, only to rebuild stronger than ever before.   --Read More

Tours of the camp last around three to five hours and include detailed information of the plight of the prisoners and conditions of the camp. Everyone should visit Auschwitz at least once in a life-time, preserved to teach humanity.

Wroclaw

Although many cities in Poland boast lovely markets for shopping, Wroclaw's Market Square (Rynek) is an exceptional spot for a vacation, especially in winter, when it features an ice skating rink! It's also one of the largest and oldest in the country, with dining and live music in the evenings to accompany your wanderings. Don't forget to add a bit of culture to your shopping trip with a tour of Panorama Raclawicka, which is a finely detailed 360° indoor painting depicting the Koscioszko Uprising against Russian forces at the battle of Raclawice, must be seen to be truly appreciated.
