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

Hallo, es war gut aber extrem viel politische Info die nicht notwendig ist und zu wenig zu wenig Geschichte zu viel Politik leider! Wir machen bei jeder Städtereise eine Besichtigung mit withlocals, das war leider dieses Mal nicht zufrieden stellend! Es waren 2 Erwachsene und 1 Teenager- alle sprechen perfekt französisch/ sind teilweise auch Franzosen - der Stefan hat sehr „ politisch „ gesprochen allgemein und das war oft nicht verständlich! Sehr schade! Zu wenig Geschichtlich, zu wenig geheim Tipps , zu viel eigene Meinung über Politik und Geschichte. Am Ende war enttäuschend! Besichtigung mit viel Politische Info

I met Marcin at the Royal Garden - what a beautiful and wonderful location to start getting to know a bit about this amazing city, since it was my first time ever in Warsaw; Marcin has a great knowledge of history and was willing to show me whatever it was possible during our 3 hours; got to visit the remnants of the Ghetto Wall, Culture Palace, Royal Tour and also a bit of Old Town - i just wish we had more time for the old Town. Besides that, he's a great photographer and was so nice to take some very nice pictures and have them sent to me! That was definitely a plus! Thank you Marcin for a great experience!Wonderful Warsaw!

Warsaw and its history truly came alive during our tour because Malina’s family has lived here for so long and so many of her relatives played such interesting roles in the life of the city. She showed us some hidden gems that were meaningful to her and that’s just the kind of personal touch you’re looking ina tour with a local. Highly recommended This is why you should tour with a local

Unsere spezifizierte Tour mit Mona war ein Highlight in unseren Polen-Ferien. Sie hat uns nebst den Sehenswürdigkeiten viel spnnendes erzählt. Wir haben auch 3 Tasting Stopps in typisch polnischen Lokalitäten (keine Touri Restaurants) eingebaut und diese waren auch fantastisch. Wir würden jederzeit sofort wieder mit Mona eine Tour buchen. Sie ist eine charmante, freundlich und sehr hilfsbereite Person.Super Local Guide Mona

I heard about With Locals on the Internet. I reached out to Mona and it was one of the best things we could have done. Mona customized a day tour of Warsaw based on what we asked. We had the best time with Mona. Not only is she very knowledgeable about Warsaw you can tell she loves what she does. I would highly recommend Mona for any of your tour needs. When I come back I certainly will contact her again. Celia & VickiA Day in Warsaw with the Lovely Mona

We were a tour group of eight people from Berlin and Marcin guided us through Warsaw for three exciting hours. As he described in his portrait, he really showed us the gems of sights that are a little off the beaten track. Places that we would certainly not have visited ourselves. The tour of the former Warsaw ghetto was also very impressive. All in all, the tour with Marcin is highly recommended! And: we all became Warsaw fans, a great city. Thank you Marcin and all the best!

The afternoon spent with Mona was outstanding. This was my first time in Poland and I could not have made a better choice than to see Warsaw through the eyes of someone who lives there. This was a very short trip for me but Mona inspired me to do further research to learn more about the country, the culture, the people and the politics. The Best Way to See Warsaw

Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe von 3 Personen. Ich habe mich für Mona bzw. Withlocals entschieden, weil sie das spezielle Angebot hatten: Private Führung in einer kleinen Gruppe. Mona zeigte uns ein Warschau, welches wir in unserer kurzen Zeit (2 volle Tage) nie gesehen hätten. Es gibt traumhaft schöne Ecken, die man in so einer großen modernen Stadt nicht vermuten würde. Vor allem die Geschichte mit all seinen Persönlichkeiten von Warschau, war sehr interessant. Also uns hat es extrem gut gefallen und bedanken uns noch einmal für die wunderschöne Führung durch Warschau. Danke liebe Mona 😀 Wunderschön, informativ und sehr privat 😀

My wife and I booked Stephane on the highlights of Warsaw tour. We met at the meeting point and the tour got underway. Stephane enlightened us with his deep history of Warsaw as we walked through the various palaces and monuments, he clearly has a passion to share his knowledge from various social economic and political points of view. We found it fascinating, especially around the deep complexity of ww1, pre ww2, during ww2 and communist eras. We stopped in E.Weedel for one of the best hot chocolates we've ever had then headed into the old town where we were met by loads of festive lights around the Xmas Market. Great tour! Thanks very much Stephane!! What a fabulous tour!

Marcin is a musician and a passionate historian. He customized our tour after learning we are runners, and showed us some very interesting historical locations that might require a little more walking, and we enjoyed it. He is extremely knowledgeable of Warsaw’s history, including the Jewish Uprising and the Warsaw Uprising. Also please don’t be shy to ask him about local life and he will share it with you. This was the best 3 hours we spent in Warsaw.History and music

This is a fantastic trip with Tunia, we walked through the city to places we would never have found and came away with more knowledge and history that we ever thought.

Walking with Tunia and listening to her talk about the history of Warsaw and daily live was one of the highlights of our long weekend in this nice city. Tunia is easy going and telling stories comes natural to her - all our best recommendation :-)Big THANKS to Tunia !

Mona stepped off her bus and gave us a beautiful wave to welcome us to Warsaw. It’s our first time in this beautiful city Mona walked us perfectly for the 3 hours with a welcome break in the middle where she took us to a wonderful coffee shop and treated us to chocolates and refreshments. We had lots of questions about the city and it’s history. Mona was very happy and very informative of her answers. She surly has the knowledge required to be the perfect guide. We cannot thank her enough and would recommend her to everyone. Thanks once again. Steve and Karen from Portsmouth U.K. xMore than Perfect
