Sandomierz 2021
We started by getting lost in the cobblestone streets of the Old Town, tracking down viewpoints and soaking in the relaxed atmosphere. Climbing up the Opatów Gate tower (Baszta Opatowska) gave us an incredible panoramic look at the Vistula River and the terracotta roofs stretching out below. But the real highlight of the day was diving deep beneath the surface. We booked a tour of the Underground Tourist Route and hit the absolute jackpot: a private tour with a wonderful local guide who had the entire place—and her undivided attention—just for us. Her passion and gripping stories brought the medieval cellars and legends back to life. To top it all off, we stepped out of the history books and straight into nature, wrapping up the day with a serene walk through the towering, roots-exposed loess gorges that frame the town.
