This tour was a great introduction to Warsaw on our first full day in the city. We covered lots of ground so had a good idea what to come back to later and spend more time on. Marcin was hugely knowledgeable and one of the highlights was him pointing out small features we otherwise would have walked past. I would definitely recommend this walking tour to anyone coming to the city and wanting to explore. Great introduction to Warsaw!

Our tour was like strolling around the city with a great friend. Malina knows lots about the city and we tried to absorb as much as possible with little sleep and incredibly jet lagged. We booked the tour the day we arrived from Seattle, in part to keep us awake and fight through our jet lag until evening. It is a perfect tour for a geographical and historical overview of the town. Melina pointed out the prime spots and also the little gems like the best perogis and donuts in the city. It was perfect to get your bearings down and explore later on your own hitting up the suggested spots for dining and shopping. Amazing that her grandfather fought in WWII and her family history goes far back. Tomb of Unknown soldier very interesting. Great overview

Marcin was a fab guide during our time in Warsaw. You can feel his passion about his city and he is extremely knowledgeable. I was short on time in the city and moving around with my 7 year old son, so unfortunately didn’t have time for too much detail. Marcin gave us some great highlights and some off the beaten track locations and information. Thanks for introducing us to your city 😁Great insight to Warsaw

"Last spring we spent five days in Warsaw - capital city of Poland - and visited many interesting places. Marcin is an amazing guide and our tour was really fantastic - an incredible journey in time and space that Marcin took us through. With my friend we are both passionate about history and Marcin's excellent knowledge of Warsaw's history and culture. It was not the first time I had visited the city but doing it with the right guide changes everything. I am looking forward to come back to Warsaw, hoping Marcin would still be available, he is definetly a guide to recommend. "Amazing tour with Marcin in Warsaw

13 January 2025

Sebastian's depth of knowledge is profound as it is eclectic and diverse. If four hours accompanying two correspondents on their journey through recent Varsovian, Polish and European history and the consequences for contemporary Warsaw and Poland presented a challenge, Sebastian more than met it, and with aplomb. We haven't been accompanied by a better guide in our extensive travels; he is quite brilliant. But beyond all that, Sebastian is a charming, empathetic man. He commands a rare combination of gifts...Two foreign correspondents

Sebastian zeigte meinen beiden Söhnen und mir den wunderschönen Lazienkowski Park und die Altstadt. Er erzählte uns auf eine interessante Weise die Geschichte und ging auf unsere Fragen ein. Es war, als würde uns ein guter Freund seine Stadt zeigen. Der Blick vom Glockenturm der Sankt Annen Kirche am Ende unserer Tour war ein echtes Highlight. Vielen Dank, lieber Sebastian.Warschau, an einem sonnigen Wintertag

Sebastian was perfect for the 4 hours we had before business started. He has a true love of Warsaw, the culture, history, and does an amazing job sharing it. We would have liked to spend more time exploring his city. My Jewish heritage is more valuable than ever after our visit to Warsaw. We will be back sooner than later and will make sure to continue our journey through the past and learn more about the present with Sebastian as our "person". We are forever changed. You have not seen the last of us! Thank you for your time. We absolutely were amazed. We have shared your knowledge with our friends and business colleagues. Be well and hope To see you again soon.4h tour Jewish and WW2 Warsaw

Best of the best. Very passionate about his city and very knowledgeable. He took us to areas and little alleys that only a native that loved to wander would know about. He geared the info and pace (we are fast walkers) to our pace. There was never any hesitation as to where to go or what to see next. He gave us options whether to be chauffeured around or to ride public transit along with the pros and cons of each. One of the best tours I've ever been on. 100% recommend!One of the best tours I've ever been on

This "10 Tastings of Warsaw" tour was excellent. Our guide, Malina, was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable about both the city's rich history and the food and drink. We had both food and drink we wouldn't normally have experienced, and learnt about details of the history of Warsaw from a very knowledgeable local. At each stop, Malina introduced us to a number of Polish dish's and drinks, with everything being very tasty. Malina made the whole experience feel personal and engaging. She was friendly, answered all our questions with enthusiasm, and even shared recommendations for other things to see and do in Warsaw. If you're looking for a way to truly experience Warsaw's culture and flavours, I highly recommend this tour! It's a perfect way to get off the beaten path, discover hidden gems, and indulge in some unforgettable Polish cuisine.Excellent Tour
