To get a spot on a coach or spritner, please send payment by 1pm this Sunday (August 9th) to secure your travel spot. €67 one-way / €134 return.
Important: In the payment reference field, put your name and the dates you're booking.
You can book one-way or return, for any combination of these dates.
Once we've received payments, we'll book either a 30-person coach with a driver, or a number of 9-seater minivans that we'll need to drive ourselves.
We'll do our best to accommodate everyone who pays, but seats are first come, first served. For example, if 11 people pay for the 23rd and we can only book a 9-seater, priority will go to the first 9 who paid and who can drive.
If you pay and don't end up with a seat, you'll be refunded in full within a few days.
Deadline?
WE NEED THE PAYMENT LATEST THID SUNDAY 1PM TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT.
Is this the final price?
If we go with the coach, €67/€134 is the total price. If we end up with 9-seater sprinters instead, we'll also need €8 petrol money per person on the day.
How does this compare to public transport?
Public transport: €45–55, roughly 8 hours with multiple changes (4.5 hours by Flixbus to Wrocław, then a 15-minute walk to a 2-hour train or bus to Nysa, then a bus or 15-minute walk to the Palace).
Group bus (with A/C): €67, 5 hours, no changes.
Anything else?
Keep in mind public transport is more prone to delays and cancellations, especially during a heatwave. Also, for anyone travelling on the 15th — it's a major public holiday, so some services will run on a reduced Sunday schedule, and transport in Poland may be busier than usual. That's why we think the group bus is better value than public transport, even at a slightly higher price.
