Unique and fun way to see Warsaw! - What a unique and fun way to see Warsaw! Everywhere we drove locals saw the vintage car and smiled. Our guide brought a marvelous perspective to the communist history of Warsaw as someone born into it and growing up as it was receding. He showed us examples of how people lived through those times and what the regime build to support its people. We saw the first apartment blocks that were supposed to be the model for future builds, but were not as they were too luxurious. We also visited "Stalin's Gift" that was not really a gift and took time to visit some of the ghetto's that are undergoing gentrification so we culd see the before and after. Well worth the time and riding in the vintage Fiat was the cherry on the cake.

Fantastic Experience - What an experience to get a real sense for the beautiful city of Warsaw and her history. Karol was great! Very knowledgeable and pointed out all of the best spots to see the monuments of the Soviet era (along with some other important locations). He even personalized the tour a little bit to better suite my interests. I would highly recommend!

Thought Provoking Tour - The private tour with Karol who has a history degree and is pursuing a PhD was incredibly insightful. I thoroughly appreciated his professionalism and extensive knowledge that he used to draw connections to how the architecture and propaganda were used by Communists to manipulate the public was invaluable. Also, the ability to ride in a car built during Communist times (1977) during the tour also added to the experience.

No and awesome. - I had a great tour of the city in a historic vehicle that was very small and very funny. The guide was very friendly, competent and entertaining. He told us lots of interesting facts and stories about the city that I would never have known otherwise. The tour was a real highlight of my visit and I can recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the city from a different perspective. It was a great ride!

Great time in Warsaw - The tour was awesome and my guide Karol was great. He was super friendly and knowledgeable. Any question I had he was able to articulate an answer to me. His English was great and I could clearly understand everything he was teaching me about the city!

Fascinating tour around Warsaw - We had Marcin (or Martin as he was known on the trip). We had a fascinating trip around Warsaw with lots of history and personal anecdotes from the communist era. The car was amazing with lots of people taking photo's. You can see why this tour gets five stars and our guide was superb!

Great tour for someone who loves history and architecture! - This will be a wonderful tour if you are interested in history and architecture. Konrad is a great guide, very attentive and knowledgeable. He managed to make a somehow “heavy” subject light and fun.
