Reply with quote

Hello,
I am late to post & seek advice but we will be in Poland from May 6-22.
I think I can handle arrangements for all the touristed areas but may need a driver/translator to visit my grandmother’s place of birth & her family residences. She was baptized/born in Badkowo, her brother in Dobrzyn & emigrated to the US from Trzcianka. I have her baptismal certificate so know her parents’ names. I’d like to visit those towns, the churches & graveyards & think it might be most accessible/drivable from Toruń.
We will be arriving from Krakow, hope to do these towns, then Gdansk & area & finally to Warsaw before departing for home.
Comments about the order of the itinerary & suggestions for best transportation would be appreciated.
But...mainly, I would appreciate recommendations for an English-speaking driver who can take us around to the ancestral homes.
Many thanks.

And could someone recommend another driver near Grunwald, in the Łódź Voivodeship? I've found by myself the trace of a couple relatives who live in this region in Poland, and wanted to rent this house in Grunwald for a couple days with them. Some speak English, so they'll understand and be able to translate for the others, but they may not have the time to drive my wife and I around.
