Your walk leads you through Old Town’s highlights, including Market Square and the Warsaw Mermaid, St. John’s Cathedral and the atmospheric lanes framed by the city walls and the Barbican. You’ll also pause at a scenic viewpoint over the Vistula River, perfect for taking in the city’s skyline and riverside landscape.
