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!

(About local Malina)

17 October 2024

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

Marcin is an amazing tour guide who made my visit to Warsaw truly enjoyable. He took me to all the must-see landmarks, but what really stood out were the hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path spots he introduced me to — places I never would’ve found on my own. His deep knowledge of Polish history and politics, as well as his passion for music, made my conversations with him both insightful and engaging. He is also a great photographer — his love for the camera made him my very own photographer. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, passionate, and knowledgeable guide who can show you both the highlights and the hidden treasures of Warsaw, I can’t recommend Marcin highly enough!An Amazing Afternoon Tour with Marcin

It was a great experimente. Mona was a wonderful and lovely guide. She respeced the needs of our wide-age-gap group with a child and a greatgrandmother. We tried tasty snaks from streetfoodbars and Restaurants and she told us a lot about living in Warșawa and the newer history. We visited the castle and learned a lot about the medivalhistory in the morning, so I think she adjusted her guidance that way.A knowledgeable and fun tour

The time of the tour passed very quickly, with every step filled with information. Sebastian was a brilliant tour guide, sharing his knowledge of the city of Warsaw with us in a manner that made it easy to understand and remember. We had previously walked through some of the locations, but was wonderful to have the history explained to enable us to understand what we were seeing. Sebastian opened doors to places that we would not have visited without a local, including a local bar with local cherry liqueur. We now have a much better understanding of the political history of Poland and Warsaw. And an understanding of why Cognac is part of the history of Warsaw. But to find out you will have to take a tour with Sebastian. Fantastic Introduction to Warsaw

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
