Hello traveller, It's great that you're coming to Poznan. It may surprise you, but our city is a cradle of Poland. I'm Tomasz Laskowski, your personal guide to the historic city of Poznan. With 14 years of experience and good storytelling skills, I interweave the city's rich history with contemporary events, peppered with fascinating fun facts. As a passionate history buff, I love bringing the past to life in a way that's both engaging and enlightening. Beyond history, I know the best places for a perfect cup of coffee, a delicious meal and all the hidden gems that make Poznań so special. As an entrepreneur, through PoznanTours I also offer extended, private, tailor-made tours of Poland and can even help you trace your family's Polish roots through bespoke genealogy research. Get to know Poland a little better: Polish culture, history and us, the real people who live here. Let's explore Poznan - and beyond - together, uncovering the stories that make this place so special. It would be great to welcome you in Poznan!
