I would like to start by saying that Michak was a great tour guide. He really knows the city, its history and more. We learned so much and he was happy to answer any questions we had for him. I would say this is a mush tour when you visit Warsaw as it will give you a good overview of the city and help you decide what to cover in more depth later. The major highlights are covered and more. The bike are comfortable. Station Warsaw Tours runs a very nice operation. Highly recommended.Read more

Marteen was a very entertaining guide and the places we visited gave a good perspective of the city of Warsaw. I particularly appreciated the Ww2 information about the Warsaw Ghetto and Soviet occupation. I would strongly advise you do not purchase a ticket as a solo traveller as I had to pay for the price of two tickets. I feel this is quite a discriminatory business practice against solo travellers. I do not know of any via tour tour that practices such discriminatory practices against solo travellers. I would be very interested to see if the company replies to my review.Read more

We are an older couple in our 60’s and enjoyed the tour from the start to the finish. The guide was knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to. The tour was well planned out and at no time did I or my partner think that we could not manage to keep up. We saw more of the city and different aspects of the city that we would never have on foot. Highly recommend the tour.

This tour is by far the best way to see Warsaw. The city is too large to tour on foot, and a bus tour would not do justice to the places you need to stop along the way. Our guide, Marcin, was extremely knowledgeable about Warsaw’s history and plights throughout its decades of oppression, and did an excellent job of explaining how it has risen from the ashes to make it the beautiful city it is today.

This was a great bike ride across Warsaw filled with interesting information about specific spots. I feel the information could have been less at the locations where we stopped and a few more stops could be added to the tour (like the Presidential Palace and Cathedral, which wasn’t on the tour.) I also feel there needs to.be built in stops at major attra tioma tomallpw for photos to be taken. Otherwise, a good tour and great bike ride. Definitely worth going just to get the Guided bike ride across Warsaw.Read more
