Such an awesome tour!!
This was such a cool tour and so different than all the rest. Just riding around in an old, communist-era van was awesome. You get a lot of looks as you drive through town. But the places which our guide, Artur, took us to were so interesting. Definitely places which you won’t see on a regular tour that just takes you to the highlights of Warsaw. Artur is from the area and very knowledgeable. I plan to do the tour again when I return and hoping to see more off-the-beaten path sites. Our favorite was probably the little village of wooden cabins and gardens hidden in the middle of the city. We never would have seen it otherwise, and meet a local family living there.

Thank You! We are glad that you enjoyed the tour:)

Splendid team-building event in Warsaw
Me and my team of colleagues visited Warsaw for a team building event. Adventure Warsaw prepared a bespoke, 2-day programme for us including a City Game, visit in a museum and a trip in a vintage van. The whole experience was just amazing and made us a better team while competing, learning and enjoying ourselves in a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere. The guide spoke perfect English, so the activities are great for people from all around the world.

Fun way to cover the sights and history of Warsaw
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic and we saw many sights that were unexpected as well as a great overview of the history of Warsaw, the main sights and Jewish history especially during WWII. Lunch in the milk bar was a great experience and really tasty thanks to the choices Wojtek made. The Museum of Life under Communism was very interesting and Wojtek added to that experience with his commentary and personal insights. The van was fun, amazing that he could drive and park so well. He kindly went well over time to show us so much and return us to our accommodation.

Amazing guided tour
We were 6 guys from Denmark on this trip. Our guide Arthur was very informative and funny. He took us to places of Warsaw, that we would never have seen on our own.
The lunch at a Milk bar is highly recommended and tasted wonderful.
Do not miss the chance to go on a trip like this.
Thanks to the booking agency and the guide - I hope to see you again some day.

Great little trip.
Firstly a huge thanks to Adam.
Our trip was on the anniversary of WW2 with roads blocked & he could have easily cancelled. He gave me instructions of the new meeting point and was there to meet us.
The little Nysa of his, she did some work and needs some mechanical gearbox love..lol.
Adam was flexible on the tour and very informative, passionate and friendly about Warsaw History.
The lunch was very traditional and overall this tour is well worth it.

Surprising insights into Poland's capital
Our guide really loved his job and his city. We have seen great corners of Warsaw that would otherwise have been hidden from us. Highlights were the newly discovered Praga district and a visit to a traditional milk bar.

Fantastic way to see as much of Warsaw as possible in a few hours
We absolutely loved getting around Warsaw in the bright pink retro van. It was a fun, interactive and interesting way to experience and learn about Warsaw's history - and our two teenagers enjoyed it too (it can be tricky finding tours for both parents and kids to enjoy - but this one worked out brilliantly!)
Our guide, Pawel, was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, entertaining and down to earth.
We really enjoyed the 'Milk Bar' lunch - loads of tasty, local food without stressing about what to order - Pawel took care of everything!
I highly recommend this tour!

Excellent Tour
We had a great time on our tour with Artur. He showed us things in Warsaw that we never would have noticed on our own. It was clear that he loves his city and it showed during the tour. Riding in the Nysa van was an experience like no other. Definitely recommend if you have a few hours.

Original tour of Warsaw
We started our stay in Warsaw with this tour in the candy pink Nysa very friendly. Pawel, our guide, did everything to explain the history of Warsaw, telling us a lot of details. We appreciated his enthusiasm and knowledge. Lunch in the milk bar is an experience not to be missed!
We recommend this tour without restrictions!

Excellent tour
Jacek was our tour guy and he certainly
Took us off the beaten track. We were take. To the ghetto, the pasta building, went over to Praga and visited a milk bar, walked through a local market and visited the communism museum. Jacek was extremely
Knowledgeable and friendly. We took the tour with 6 other people. The van was old and noisy with windows that steamed up but it all added to the charm and made us all
Smile. We paid around 80 euros for two
People for what should have been a 4 hour trip, but it was closer to 5 :). Food at the milk bar was included in the price and was a selection of local dishes quashed down with beetroot jouice
