Tour description
Wrocław is one of Poland's most delightful cities, a place of colourful market squares, a hundred bridges over the river Oder, and hundreds of tiny bronze dwarf statues hidden across the old town. With a rich German and Polish past, it has one of the most beautiful medieval centres in the country. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its charm and history.
You will admire the ornate Old Town Hall, hunt for the famous dwarfs, and cross to the peaceful Cathedral Island where the city began. Along the way you will hear the story of a city that has changed hands and rebuilt itself with remarkable spirit. Playful and picturesque, Wrocław is a joy to explore on foot.
