Excellent Wroclaw Sightseeing

It was just a great tour with a private guide Andrew. He was very knowledge and told us many interesting facts about the city of Wroclaw and whole Poland. Apart from that it was well organised and good priced. Communication with tour operator was clear and quick which we really appreciate. We recommend the tour to anyone.

Mrs.

Great walking tour. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and very interesting to chat to. Possibly a little over priced but we enjoyed every moment and were taken to some areas that we would probably not have seen without our expert guide. Thank you.
