Connecting the twon iconic capitals of Poland - Krakow and Warsaw - has never been easier. Our companion for the full route will be the Vistula river, guaranteeing a pleasant and easy ride!
En route we wil visit a number of lovely castles and chateaux, which have often played a key role in Polish history. Also, to make it more leisure, we will check out some of the summer residences of the Polish kings.
To get a deeper insight, we will enjoy a local guide in a number of these places!
Covering he full distance is made easier by a few transfers, skipping some of the more problematic parts!
Two historical places of power - Krakow and Warsaw, two key names in the country´s history. Following the Vistula river to make it easy gives this tour a feeling of a perfect holiday. Moreover - some of the places we are about to visit using a local guide to get deeper! Finally, just next to Krakow we will visit the Wieliczka salt mine, a real dive into history and splendour!
Itinerary
Krakow
Show dayThe first day of the tour is dedicated to the ancient royal capital of Poland - Krakow. As part of the day you will enjoy the first of a number of guided walks through town to learn more. Also, should you like having more nights in Krakow, do ask!
Today is the first day following the mighty Vistula river, our tour guide. Leaving cozy Krakow we first stop in a salt mine Wieliczka. An UNESCO protected place which is much more than a mine. A guided tour in this must is included. Back to the river we first admire the town of Niepolomice. Meandering with the Vistula, we easilly get to Nowe Brezsko, our tonights destination.
Distance: 53 km by bike, by bus about 70 km
Description of the day: Day 2 along the river. We keep meandering and enjoying the peacefull river flow. Closer to the end, we change rivers - swaping Vistula for Dunajec to get to Zalipie. Here the bike journey ends and a short car transfer takes us to our tonights lodgings - the lovely town of Baranow Sandomierski with a lovely castle and peacefull gardens next to it.
Distance: 35 km
Description of the day: Today’s trip is a short one. Cycling along Vistula, we will reach the beautiful Sandomierz, with its picturesque old town on the hill. The atmosphere and architecture may remind you of Kraków, although definitely a less crowded one. Before entering Sandomierz it pays of walking the nearby gorges before diving into a town buzz again! Once in Sandomierz, we again enjoy the town best having a local guide showing us around! (included in price!)
After breakfast we start another day of the tour. Cycling along the banks of Vistula we have a chance to spot numerous bird species. Eventually, we are going to reach Józefów, where awaits our today’s accommodation.
Day 6 takes us to Kazimierz Dolny, once an important river port. Numerous granaries, which have been located there now function as pensions and hotels. Before reaching our destination we will have the chance to admire the pristine nature of the Kazimierz Landscape Park. Once in Kazimierz Dolny it makes sense visiting the other banks castle ruins as well!
Today is the last biking day of this trip! This day cycling takes us to Naleczow. A place know as a healing spa and area thanks to its clear air and natural springs. After enjoying a walk through the town, we are about to board a direct train to Warsaw, the marvvelous Polish capital. Once there, we will for the last time enjoy the city through a guided tour led by a local guide.

We went on a family trip from Prague to Dresden. Europe Bike Tours (EBT) team planned a great route for us. Everything was masterfully organized: bikes, accommodation, transfers and logistics. The navigation application, in which all the trip routes were entered by the EBT team, was very convenient and efficient and allowed us to move along the route easily and even allowed the children to lead the trip in some sections.
Lukas and his team was sensitive to our needs and were extremely flexible. The Prague city tour, in the day before leaving for the route is highly recommended! Helps everyone get to know the bike and make adjustments if needed and also get to know the abilities of the members of the group.
We really enjoyed the trip and the kind and professional services of the EBT team. I highly recommend the route from Prague to Drezn and definitely do it with the EBT team!
