Why Include Toruń in Your Poland Tour? 

Toruń is one of Poland’s most enchanting cities, a place where time seems to stand still. With its perfectly preserved medieval Old Town, Toruń is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a jewel of Gothic architecture. The city is famous as the birthplace of Nicolaus Copernicus, the astronomer who “stopped the Sun and moved the Earth,” and for its delicious pierniki (gingerbread) — a sweet tradition that dates back over 700 years.

Located on the banks of the Vistula River, Toruń combines history, science, and a relaxed riverside atmosphere. It’s smaller and quieter than many other Polish cities, yet full of charm and character. Our Toruń private tours and small group excursions are created by local guides who love sharing the city’s stories — from the life of Copernicus to the aroma of freshly baked gingerbread.
