The experience

Your driver meets you at your Wroclaw hotel and drives you to Poznan's city center in an air-conditioned minivan. The journey takes roughly an hour each way, leaving you with up to five hours to spend in the city however you choose. You can explore on your own, join a free walking tour, or ask the operator to arrange a local guide for additional commentary. The choice is yours once you arrive.

The Stary Rynek, Poznan's old town square, is one of Europe's finest and the heart of what you'll see. It was rebuilt after severe World War 2 destruction and now hosts cafés and bars where you can sit and watch the square fill with people. On the square stands the town hall, famous for its mechanical goats that emerge from the roof each day at noon to butt their heads together. Ostrów Tumski, Cathedral Island, sits nearby as the spot where Poznan was founded, a quieter area with its own character. Bottled water is provided for the drive, and all surfaces in the city center are wheelchair accessible if you need that.

After your time in Poznan, your driver returns you to your Wroclaw hotel. The whole day runs ten to eleven hours from pickup to drop-off, so plan accordingly if you have evening plans. An English-speaking driver is included. If you want a separate local guide for the Poznan portion, you can arrange that at checkout.
