What people are saying about Poznań

Excellent customer service!

The tour was very nice. Had a great time with our knowledgeable tour guide Anna. What took the experience to another level is the customer service that I had to contact because of my own mistake. I booked the tour twice (don’t ask me how or why) and didn’t notice it until the time of the tour. I called the polish rep and he told me to email headquarters since I booked everything online. Within just a couple of hours they deposited the extra charge back to my account. I just emailed them what happened, no questions asked whatsoever. Superb!

Katharina gave us a varied, interesting, informative and entertaining tour of the Poznań construction site. She has succeeded in directing the view from the construction activity to the beauties of the city. Certainly not an easy task at present! Thank you again André Parade

The knowledge and pride in Polish history that my tour guide demonstrated throughout the walking tour ranks as one of the best tours I’ve been on in Europe. A mix of history through Medieval Poznan, renaissance, and onwards. Great tour
