We were traveling as a group with 8 people. Our guide Matthias spoke fluent German and was well informed about the history of the city and current Wroclaw. We really enjoyed the tour and can only recommend it to others.
Lieber Markus_H, vielen Dank für Ihre lieben Worte! Es freut uns sehr, dass Matthias Ihnen und Ihrer Gruppe die Geschichte und das heutige Wrocław so lebendig näherbringen konnte. Klingt nach einer rundum gelungenen Tour 😊 Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bald wieder auf einem weiteren Abenteuer begrüßen zu dürfen! Beste Grüße, Rosotravel Team
Although the date has been reserved for several weeks and has been repeatedly pointed out by confirmations and so on, unfortunately the responsible city guide was not informed by the organization. We stood for 15 minutes until we reached him. Subsequently it turned out that he had no appointment for that day, and another hour we did not want to wait for a replacement appointment, which was offered by him personally, not by the organization. The organization cannot be recommended in any case
This area rates high on the head parade of preserved main squares in Poland. It’s a charming place to have a cup of coffee or a meal and watch the world go by.
It was a very individual tour. At our own pace and with lots of information about the history and diversity of the city. We are thrilled!
We enjoyed our city trip guided by Agnieszka who is professional and energized. She speaks fluent French. Wroclaw is such a charming city full of history. What a pleasant surprise!
