Pickup details

If your pickup location is not present in the selection box, please send the address to the tour operator. Please note that transfer from and to the hotel counts into the tour's total time. Therefore, sometimes it is better to meet the guide in the city centre, rather than spend the time transferring from the far-located hotel.

Amazing! Must do in Warsaw!

Menerie_M, Mar 2026

This is a must do in Warsaw! Tom was fantastic and we learned so much about the history of Warsaw. It was our favorite tour in Warsaw by far.

Great Tour!

David_P, Nov 2025

Tom did a wonderful job describing the history of communism. The tour was amazing. We went all over downtown Warsaw, and he was very knowledgeable about buildings and statues.
