Itinerary

1

Day 1: Warsaw

Arrive at any time. After settling into your hotel, attend a welcome meeting in the evening with your CEO before heading out to see some of the Christmas displays on the way to an optional dinner with the group.
Warsaw is a vibrant city rich in history and full of stories, having been nearly destroyed in World War II. If you have time, we recommend taking some extra time to fully explore this incredible city.

2

Day 2: Warsaw/Gdańsk

Wave goodbye to Warsaw and board a train bound for Gdansk, travelling through the picturesque Polish countryside. Enjoy some free time on arrival to the hotel before setting off with your CEO on an orientation walk of the city's highlights, culminating at the vibrant local Christmas Market.
Gdansk is a coastal city known for beautiful beaches and intricate architecture including the longest building in Poland and the tallest monument dedicated to fallen shipyard workers.

3

Day 3: Gdańsk

Set off in the morning with your CEO on an excursion to the nearby city of Sopot, on the Baltic Sea. Stroll along the promenade and visit it's Christmas market before returning to Gdansk to enjoy the rest of the day free to continue exploring or to relax.

4

Day 4: Gdańsk/Wrocław

Set off again by train heading south to the city of Wroclaw. In the afternoon, head out on foot with your CEO to see the city's main sights and see why it is sometimes referred to as the "Venice of Poland." Finish the walk at Wroclaw's festive Christmas market and take the rest of the day for yourself, perhaps making a stop in the evening at one of the oldest beer cellars in Europe.
Aptly nicknamed 'Venice of Poland', Wroclaw is home to 100 bridges, crossing Oder, Ślęza, Widawa, Bystrzyca and Dobra Rivers, and several more streams.

5

Day 5: Wrocław/Krakow

Depart by train and travel through the countryside toward Krakow. Upon arrival, enjoy some time on your own for lunch before joining a local guide on a walking tour of the city's highlights, culminating at Krakow's bustling Christmas market. Continue with an 'obwarzanki' cooking class where you'll learn the ins and outs of this bagel-like, traditional speciality. Enjoy your creation, then spend the remainder of the evening at leisure.

6

Day 6: Krakow

Explore Krakow on your own with a full free day. You may wish to explore the tragic history of this region with an excursion to Auschwitz Birkenau, the largest German Nazi concentration and extermination camp; a highly impactful experience.

Day 7: Krakow
