The best of Poland's unique wildlife, vast wilderness, classical cities and historic castles
This trip offers a superb balance between history, scenery, culture and wildlife to give a complete picture of Poland today, as well as insights into its glorious past. In two weeks we enjoy five UNESCO World Heritage sites including the wonderful cities of Warsaw, Torun and Krakow. We take a trip to the beautiful Baltic coast; as well as exploring Poland's unique wilderness areas, lovely countryside and spectacular mountains.
