Really nice trips with many places we saw. A trip to the mountains which have proven is there are many secret places there. Nice refreshing air and beautiful scenery. We also enjoyed historical heritage from the knight times. Adam was a great guide also and he knew a lot about the landmarks he shown to us.

Full description

On this full-day excursion you’ll visit the Karkonosze Mountains, also known as the Giant Mountains, and the fascinating Valley of Palaces and Gardens and unique 19th-century mansions. Most of the sites are situated at the foot of the largest mountain range in the Sudetes.

The scenic route takes you from Wrocław to the extraordinary 14th-century Siedlecin Tower House. Admire one of the most outstanding examples of medieval art: the 14th-century polychromes that portray scenes from the Arthurian legends of Lancelot.


The next stop is a late baroque palace in Staniszow where you'll sample Echt Stonsdorfer (traditional herb liqueur) from the village. From here, travel to Karpacz, one of the most popular mountain resorts, situated directly at the foot of the Karkonosze range. Here you'll visit the Vang Stave church, considered to be the oldest wooden church in Poland and a unique relic of Nordic Romanesque architecture dating back to the 12th century. It was originally built in Norway and was moved to Silesia by a Prussian king in 19th century.

Our guide, Majciek, was extremely knowledgeable about the history and current environment of these places. He could also answer even our random questions. There was a short hike uphill, but the path was paved and very easy to walk. There were some stairwells involved in the Tower and no elevator, so you do need to be mobile and able to walk up and down stairs. We learned so much about Poland - the people, the history, the land. I loved every minute of the tour!
