Great tour to Chopins birthplace. - We were picked up at our hotel by Marcin and went on the most incredible tour to Frédéric Chopin birthplace in Zelazowa-Wola. On our way he stopped at the bakery and bought us delicious polish donuts. Marcin was informative, funny and very knowledgeable about Chopin and history. At the house we were treated to a 20 minute outdoor performance by a young pianist. After viewing the house and garden, we drove to the church where Chopin was baptized. I strongly recommend this tour, it was amazing 🇵🇱👍.

Chopin Tour - This was an excellent experience. Marcin was a fantastic guide! He was really very knowledgeable in the history of Poland, which provided a great deal of context regarding Chopin’s life. This tour wasn’t just a glimpse into the great Polish composer’s life, but also a glimpse into Poland as a country. I truly enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it. Thank you Marcin Hilgier and Viator!

Great Experience - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Conrad. Having a local guide is a great way to learn about a city. Not not did we learn about Chopin, we learned about the the countryside on our way. We learned more about the challenges Poland has faced. He answered all our questions and told us about conflicting viewpoints regarding events in Chopin’s life.

Lovely day for a ride in the country - Favorite part was talking with Marcin about the history of his country, Poland, and his knowledge about many countries in our world. Very engaging. He gave this tour for just the two of us, and we had lots of time to tour the grounds and house, then to see the church where Chopin was baptized.

Wonderful and Educational - I really enjoyed the tour and getting to talk with my guide about not only Chopin but also the country of Poland, and its history and language. My guide was very knowledgeable and informative and answered all of my questions. I felt safe and comfortable as a solo female traveller which is important to me and there was enough time to see everything and take it all in. I recommend this to other traveller's with an interest in Chopin and his beginnings, worth the money

Wonderful Day with chopin - The guide Hilgier was awesome. He knew a Lot of stuff and was very kind and helpful. He even got us tickets for a concert in the city. The only thing that could be improved was the fact, that it felt a bit rushed.

Insightful - Martin was an excellent tour guide providing a rich and deep, and entertaining commentary. We did the Chopin gardens and museum and house. But the tour to the forest and the ethnographic village was a great contrast to the city. Serene, but also good to understand the disparity in circumstances between the regional and city lives. Martin was very open to exploring and matching the experience with our interests. And the lunch was wonderful in a tiny village restaurant with excellent local food.

Memorable tour to Chopin's roots - A memorable tour to Fryderyk Chopin's roots, on a sunny day in August. Our tour guide and driver was Martin, who did a great job all the way. He was also highly enjoyable company on the ride from and back to Warsaw, sharing many interesting details about Poland and its people. Arriving in Żelazowa Wola, after a comfortable 45-minute drive from Warsaw, we started off in the museum with a movie about Chopin’s life. Subsequently followed by a stroll through the beautiful surrounding park. We made a brief stop outside Chopin’s place of birth, the manor house, where a wonderful piano concert was taking place. Soon we were transported to the village of Brochów, to visit the church where Chopin was baptised. Coming back to the park, limited time was left for the manor house interior and its exhibited artifacts. All in all a great experience, though the available time to spend in the park and inside the manor house is too short. Perhaps the 30-minute movie in the museum could be optional. With that leaving more time for the park and manor house - and for that shot of Polish vodka that now fell in between ;-)
