The itinerary is flexible, so you can customize the route to your preferences and even skip certain sites. By default, the tour begins at the famous Sigismund’s Column in Castle Square, but we can start at your hotel or any other convenient spot in central Warsaw upon request. You'll explore the city on foot from one landmark to the next, soaking in the atmosphere; if needed, we can also use public transportation or taxis (at your expense) to comfortably reach more distant sites. For those opting for the extended 7-hour tour, you can take a lunch break (meal not included in the price) without extending the overall tour duration. Additionally, the standard route is designed so that no paid entries are required – you'll admire major attractions from the outside – but if you wish to go inside any ticketed venue, your guide can accommodate it and you can buy tickets on the spot. Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or a large group of up to 100 people, this private Warsaw walking tour will comfortably accommodate you.
For groups larger than 19, we provide headsets (at an additional 3 EUR per person) to ensure everyone hears the guide clearly, and one guide can easily lead groups of this size – though if you prefer multiple guides for an extra-large party, we can arrange that on request. Overall, this Warsaw private walking tour promises a personalized, engaging, and comprehensive experience of the city’s highlights, making it an ideal way to discover the best of Warsaw with a knowledgeable private guide by your side.

Good way of seeing the city
Enjoyable experience and a good way to see the city. Having had another tour the day before this one was altered to suit us and not to duplicate those parts of the cities history we had already discovered.

Wow! Do this tour!
We only had two days in Warsaw and Kasia made sure we saw it all in 7 hrs! I’ve never had such an amazing tour guide that made the tour so personal and got to know you. We took breaks when we wanted to, looked further into sites we wanted to know more about, and so on. Very nice and informative!

Excellent experience, warmly recommend Iga!
An excellent guide, dedicated, active the whole time, conveys great energy, speaks English very fluently and understandably, patient, ready to answer all questions. She quickly fit into the group, which was around 20 people, and after half an hour, we felt like she was one of us. Wonderful Iga!
