Road Name History: Sindbad Sp. z o. o. (until 2009 Private Travel Agency "Sindbad") - a Polish transport company based in Opole, founded in 1983, mainly dealing with international coach transport.

The company was established as a private travel agency dealing with visa matters. In the mid-1980s, it began to organize its own coach transport from southern Poland to Germany, which in the 1990s, after the visa requirement for Poles in Western European countries was lifted, became the main activity of the company. From 1990, the office also offered holidays abroad, initially in Italy. From 2004, the offer of international connections was extended to countries other than Germany - initially, coaches began to reach the Benelux countries, France, Great Britain and Austria. In 2006, cooperation with three other carriers on international lines was initiated, which resulted in the launch of the Sindbad long-distance coach connection platform, which in 2019 included 30 carriers from Poland and 50 from abroad. In 2020, Sinbad had over 120 own coaches and 200 partner vehicles. This made Sinbad the largest coach carrier in Poland and one of the largest in this region of Europe.
