A new tour descrbied on our blog https://polishorigins.com/blog from Michael Mackowski. Michaeł travelled with his wife to Poland in August this year. He wrote a detailed, 11-part account of the whole journey, enriched with many photographs and videos, including several bird’s-eye views that show his family land and the towns.
I think you may find especially interesting Part 4, where Michael, his Polish relatives, and the entire town celebrate Dożynki (the Harvest Festival): https://polishorigins.com/blog/mackowskis-visit-to-poland-part4/
And Part 5, the day when Michael walks his ancestral land and visits cousins in their homes. Some of the videos are narrated in Michael’s own voice, which makes the stories especially valuable and personal: https://polishorigins.com/blog/mackowskis-visit-to-poland-part5/
Although each of our custom tours is unique and we cannot always guarantee successful genealogy or family search results, Michael’s report is a good example of what you can expect to experience when you decide to visit this part of Europe and your family places with us.
