Absolutely amazing tour. Marzena was an excellent tour guide and showed me so many amazing sites in the city. We were able to see a lot from the car as well as walking which was great during the frosty winter. I would highly recommend this tour.

I had an incredible experience on this half day layover tour. Marzena was very knowledgeable and passionate about Warsaw’s history and was very kind to answer all of my questions of current life in Warsaw. The sites were beautiful and it was great to see the Old Town, New Town and Summer Palace. I had a 6 hour layover so we were able to tour for close to 4 hours which was significantly better than sitting at the airport. I had a private tour and it is much better than the larger group tours that tend to move slower. I highly recommend this experience.Read more
