BIESZCZADER sp. z o.o., operating under the trade name Biuro Podróży BIESZCZADER, is a privately held Polish travel agency (sp. z o.o., limited liability company) headquartered at Mokre 54, 38-542 Rzepedź in the Podkarpackie Voivodeship (NIP 687 196 31 76, KRS 0000 657 650). The company organizes guided day trips and multi-day tours anchored in the Bieszczady mountain region of southeastern Poland and extending to four neighboring countries — Ukraine, Romania, Slovakia, and Hungary. Its product catalog includes themed single-day excursions (e.g., 'BIESZCZADY w Pigułce,' 'TRAPERSKA PRZYGODA,' 'CZARNE ZŁOTO PODKARPACIA'), multi-day group packages to destinations such as Transylvania, Maramureș, Bukovina, Lviv, and the Tokaj wine region, plus seasonal winter offerings of horse-drawn sleigh rides (kulig) along a historic narrow-gauge railway route and a snowshoe rental that the company describes as the largest in Poland (50 pairs of TSL snowshoes).

Operations run on a direct-to-consumer go-to-market: customers reserve scheduled departures through an online calendar on bieszczader.pl or by phone (667 707 999), while group bookings are handled via custom quote on request. Pricing is per-person, per-tour (kulig 190-240 PLN/adult depending on transport mode, snowshoe rental per day with 200 PLN deposit per pair). Distribution relies on a regional bus pickup network covering numerous villages across Bieszczady and Podkarpacie. Underlying technology is a content-managed website with a live webcam system showing Solina dam and Polańczyk conditions (3-minute camera rotation), a YouTube content channel, and Facebook pages. The company is licensed as a tour organizer in the Podkarpackie voivodeship (registration #10502, permit #252/17) and carries a UNIQA insurance guarantee (nr 3673847330) covering customer repatriation and refunds; it has received the regional 'Best Tourism Product Podkarpacie 2012' and national 'Best Tourism Product Poland 2017' awards and was featured on TVP2's Pytanie na Śniadanie morning program on 7 January 2026.
