The 9 Best Tours in Torun

1.Panorama of Toruń – 30-minute cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 80 reviews · 30 min · from $9Our pick

Settle aboard Nasuta Copernicus, a traditional Vistula boat, for a 30-minute view of Toruń’s UNESCO-listed old town from the river. A Polish-speaking guide covers the city, its architecture, and the Vistula’s role in its growth. Expect a small boat, life jackets, and a striking view of the Leaning Tower.

“Wieczorny rejs po Wiśle okazał się fantastycznym przeżyciem. Tego dnia nad rzeką unosiła się lekka mgła, która dodała wyprawie nuty tajemniczości i delikatnego dreszczyku. Łódka była niewielka, dzięki czemu panowała kameralna, niemal rodzinna atmosfera - dokładnie taki klimat, jaki lubię. Ogromnym plusem był przewodnik z dużym poczuciem humoru. Opowiadał nie tylko ciekawie, ale też o rzeczach, o których wcześniej nie miałam pojęcia. Widać było, że zna i kocha to miejsce. To był naprawdę świetnie spędzony wieczór. Polecam każdemu, kto szuka czegoś innego niż zwykły spacer po mieście - naprawdę warto zobaczyć Toruń z tej innej perspektywy!”
