Lovely overview of old Warsaw - Our guide Hania was excellent for several reasons. Firstly, we had 2 children (pre teens) and she adjusted the itinerary in consultation with us to make it more interesting for them as well. She was very professional and answered all our questions patiently. Lastly, she left us with good recommendations for where to eat and what else to do after the tour. We never felt like she hurried us. The car itself was a bonus. I’m glad it was early in the day, because towards lunch time, it was getting warm and humid. Hanna ensured we stood in the shade while she explained about the places and their history.

Perfect tour of the city - Karol, my guide was prompt and professional. He was an excellent guide for the city and very knowledgeable. The car was fine for hopping in and out for the several hours of my tour. It was an extremely hot day in Warsaw so it was warm in the car. I would recommend this tour and especially Karol. This is the Jewish quarter tour so it was solely the Jewish areas- just for reference. I loved it but it may not be your preference. Also, you will need to walk during tour.

Great Tour of Warsaw's Jewish Heritage- a great history lesson - I have always had an interest in World War II, and this gave me a very good overview of what Warsaw went through during the war. The guide was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions and more, The retro Fiat was kinda fun, gave the tour a little something extra, and we were glad we did this tour.

Highly recommend - Marcin was a wonderful guide. Was very knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. Driving in the fiat was fun. We decided on a tour over doing it alone and so happy we did. Got to see so much more and get more insight then if we did it ourselves. Highly recommend this tour.

Jewish Warzawa!! Highly recommended from a cultural and historical point of view. - Private Tour with an excellent Tourguide Marcin. Strong recommendation. He is very well prepared and gave a lot of professional explanations. The history itself is devastating and horrible (Warzawa Ghetto), but I learnt a lot. Thank you. As recommended by Marcin I went to POLIN Museum and it was very impressive. It is one of the days to remember. Thank you for this experience.

Deeper Understanding of the Jewish Heritage in Warsaw - Our tour guide Karol Zdziech is the best one that we have ever had. His knowledge and passion are evident while showing us the historical sights. Even though we had to modify our tour due to the national holiday and the major game between two Polish teams, he made sure we were well taken care of, had adequate time to visit the significant historical sights, and beyond. Karol has extraordinary knowledge of Poland's history, and we are grateful for his time in explaining the deeper details. This tour is a must do while in Warsaw.

Awesome tour if you want to learn about Jewish history in Warsaw! - Martin was an awesome tour guide! He was very knowledgable and made the tour a fun and entertaining learning experience. We visited all of the major spots around the city related to the Jewish community and history, and Martin was able to answer all of our questions. We stopped at many different historical sites, walked around, saw reference photos, and learned details about each place's significance. He also provided great recommendations for places to visit and foods to try during our stay. Martin grew up in Warsaw, and knew the area well. He showed us all the sights, filled us in on the culture, and even stopped to get us some delicious Polish donuts! We would highly recommend this tour if you're wanting to see and learn about Jewish history in Warsaw, and if you can request a tour guide, ask for Martin!
