In the centre of Europe lies hospitable Poland, a surprising country of river
valleys, 9000 lakes, snow-capped mountains and Baltic Coast sand dunes. It may
be home to modern cities like Warsaw that paves the way with its futuristic
skyscrapers, but in some parts the traditional Polish way of living still
presides.
World-class cities rich in history and the stunning Tatra
mountain range mean that coach trips to Poland are becoming increasingly
popular. On a Poland escorted tour, stroll through capital
Warsaw, virtually reconstructed after its ruin in World War II
or wander through appealing, medieval Krakow as it may have
looked years ago. Near the German border stands hauntingly unforgettable and
bleak Auschwitz, a stark reminder of Poland's not too distant
history, and one that should be visited on a Poland tour.
