Additional Information

This private tour is designed to give you a leisurely exploration of the city at your pace, where you’re not competing with others for attention. Although our cars hark back to the communist era, they can still zip around the city with ease! This tour is ideal for those who appreciate a more personalized and unrushed experience. Your guide will begin the tour with a walk through Warsaw Old Town, chronicling its historic trade routes, rise and fall of Poland’s first republic, and the last vestiges of hope. After that, you will enjoy a scenic drive across the Vistula river to reach the Praga district, the only part of Warsaw that has maintained its pre-WWII authenticity. Here, discover the streets that filmmakers adore and watch as aged tenements are transformed into deluxe retro residences. Next, you will pass the National Stadium on your way back to the city centre where you will witness Warsaw’s post-WWII reconstruction. Take in the dominating soviet-style architecture, expansive squares, and observe the evolution that occurred after the collapse of the communist regime in 1989.

Great tour and guide! - Marcin, our guide, was very knowledgeable. He provided context and history for the various sites we saw, and made sure we saw the most important sites given that we were only here for one day. Three hours went so fast, and it felt like we covered a lot of ground. Definitely a good introduction to the city! Would recommend as an initial tour of the city to get an overview. Great guide!

Marcin was awesome! - Look no further this was a great tour. Marcin is very knowledgable and spends a lot of time explaining the full Polish history of Warsaw. We never felt like there were time constraints, no pressure. Just felt like a friend taking you on a personal tour. highly recommend!!!!

Excellent overview of Warsaw - An intimate tour of the city. Marcin took us off tour twice after learning our interest in pastries and seeing an intact ghetto wall that was on private property but was allowed by a security. I recommend doing it the first day in order to get your bearings of the city

I highly recommend this fun & informative tour! - My husband & I throughly enjoyed the Best of Warsaw private mini bus tour this morning/afternoon. We saw and learned so much. Our guide was very knowledgeable and interesting in his presentation of the historical events throughout the years. We would highly recommend this tour! How nice to be picked up from our hotel and then dropped off in Old Town Warsaw so we could have lunch and explore a bit on our own.
