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!

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.
