Wrocław’s best - Our guide Anna who was born and raised in Wroclaw was awesome. The tour was very informative and educational. We learnt lots about the history of Wroclaw and she went into detail about the meaning of things. As well a lot of interesting facts. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and Anna as your guide.

Excellent walking tour of Wroclaw - would certainly recommend - We met Anna at Rynek Square for the walking tour of the city. Anna was waiting for us at the appointed time and we had no difficulty in recognising her. We enjoyed the tour very much indeed. Anna speaks excellent English ( we speak no Polish at all so this really helped!!). The tour itself was of great interest - Annas knowledge of the history and politics of the city and of the specific sights we saw was absolutely first class and i would have no hesitation in recommending this tour. Excellent from start to finish. Thank you Anna.

Great tour!! - Myself and my Mum had a fantastic time today. Anna is a brilliant guide and such a lovely, welcoming lady.
The tour was very informative and interesting from start to finish.
Sadly we are returning home tomorrow or we would have booked another one of the tours on offer.
I can not recommend this tour enough, an absolute must do for anyone interested in learning about the history of this beautiful city.
Thank you Anna for a wonderful afternoon.
