Warsaw seen differently! - A very special tour: I have seen neighborhoods that as an ordinary tourist would certainly never visit. Also learned a lot about Warsaw's past. The Guide Marcin did just fine. Thank you!!!

A bigger picture (31st August) - Cool guide and very interesting insights into the Warszawa-District "Praga" which I wouldn't have visited otherwise I guess. It contributed to a bigger picture of this interesting European city.

Go off the beaten tourist path - I very highly recommend this tour. The guide provided an entertaining and informative look at the history of Warsaw, going off the beaten tourist path to a part of the city that survived the war but has battled neglect ever since. The communist era buses which date the 1980s -- but feel more like the 50s -- added to the unique experience.

Great fun on a bouncy and eye catching communist era bus! - Really fun tour of a lesser known part of Warsaw. The bus was a star in its own right! The bounciness of the ‘suspension’ system had us laughing the whole time! And seeing this part of Warsaw was very interesting. Our guide was excellent and we would happily recommend this tour

Our English speaking tour... - Our English speaking tour was great fun thanks to the knowledge, experience and humour of our guide Marcin. We got lots of facts and amusing personal anecdotes about life under the iron curtain whilst driving through Warsaw, as well as during the stopping points of the tour. Highly recommended by our group of four from London. Thanks Marcin!
