Overview
This bike tour through the Czech Republic and Poland begins in one ancient capital, Prague, and ends in another, Krakow, and offers a unique perspective on cycling in Europe. As you pedal through former Iron Curtain countries of the most eastern portion of central Europe, you will delight in what most Europeans have long known. This is an area coming into its own in regards to many things, cycling included.
Entering Poland through the Těšínsko region, you bike this lake-filled land to admire the old town of Pszyna with its chateau and open-air museum. A visit to Oswieczim (Auschwitz) with its dreadful WWII history and nearby Nazi concentration camp is possible. From here, you continue through gentle landscapes along the Amber trail to the historical capital Krakow to admire its old town and the regal Wawel castle.
Two options are offered in regards to tour length, a 13-day tour or a 10-day tour. The 10-day tour also has guided dates. This important route is framed with six UNESCO World Heritage Sites and dotted with numerous castles and hidden villages!

Recommended
Possible on the self-guided tour only: We advise booking an extra night in Osvetim and taking the entire day to explore the Auschwitz site which will include Auschwitz and Auschwitz II - Birkenau. Visitors should set aside a minimum of about 90 minutes for each site. It is essential to visit both parts of the camps to acquire a proper sense of the place that has become the symbol of the Holocaust. Due to an overwhelming interest in visiting the Auschwitz Memorial, a new website has been created: visit.auschqitz.org. An online reservation is the only guarantee of entering the Museum on the date and time of your choice. A new function on the user-friendly website is a possibility for individual visitors to book a group tour with an educator, as well as to make the payment online.
Remarks
Private return transfer can be arranged from Krakow to Prague on request.
