My day trip to Wolf’s Lair was a very memorable and wonderful trip. My goals for the tour were to see Wolf’s Lair but, equally important to me was to see the countryside and understand rural life in the northern part of Poland. My driver, “Mojic”, made the trip a wonderful experience. He talked with me like an old friend about all aspects of life and history in northern Poland. It was truly like spending the day with a knowledgeable local friend rather than a driver or guide. The guide at Wolf’s Lair was also very knowledgeable and interesting, and there was much more to see than I expected. In all the tour far exceeded my expectations, which was largely due to the excellent driver and guide. A long day tour can often feel long, but due to our discussions about Poland, the time flew by, and before I knew it the long day was over. My driver suggested a fine traditional Polish restaraunt near my hotel for dinner and he dropped me near the door. In summary the tour was very enjoyable and greatly informative. GREAT TOUR, GREAT JOB Dave G.Read more

My driver was excellent! We chatted and learned about each other’s cultures, safe driving, offered frequent stops, asked about temperature and music. The tour guide was amazing, pointed out specific things and special things, wasn’t put off by photos. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Worth the 8 hours in the car from Warsaw!
