Warsaw Old Town Highlights Private Guided Walking Tour

Maria was a great guide, passionate and fascinating I recommend it

Excellent and informative tour led by tour guide Mariola Laskowska. We learnt a lot about the history of Poland and can highly recommend this walking tour

We booked a private Highlights of Old Town Warsaw tour and met our guide, who was pleasant and polite. Unfortunately, the tour itself was quite disappointing. I’ve travelled extensively and done countless city tours over the years, and this is the first time I’ve ever found myself wanting a tour to end early. The delivery was very dry, with little enthusiasm or engagement. The history felt disconnected, and there were no interesting anecdotes, local insights, or recommendations that usually bring a city to life. We were really hoping to come away with a deeper appreciation of Warsaw and its Old Town, but the experience felt very flat and lacked any real flow or personality. I don’t enjoy leaving negative reviews, but all 13 of us on the tour were left feeling rather baffled by the experience. It simply didn’t meet the standard we’ve come to expect from guided city tours.

Mariola was an excellent, exhaustive enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide and had an excellent introduction to the history and architecture and monuments and churches of Warsaw Old Town.... unfortunately the whole of the Old Town was completely destroyed (including the Palace) during He Warsaw Uprising in WW II... and the entire area has been rebuilt as it was before... we entered the St. John’s Archcathedral and saw the Royal Castle from the outside. It was a sunny afternoon as we soaked the beauty and vibrancy of the Warsaw Old Town... Highly recommended!

A perfect guided walk through Warsaw’s Old Town! Our guide Maria was fantastic – she took into account the group’s specific interests and tailored her storytelling accordingly. She shared the history of Warsaw and Poland, as well as insights into the present day, in a colorful and personal way. The tour was also really interactive, with just the right amount of questions to keep everyone engaged. Super interesting and engaging overall – 10/10! We also got great tips for the rest of our trip. And of course, the Old Town itself was absolutely beautiful and fascinating, made even better by the perfect weather!

Absolutely enthralling tour with full details on every aspect of Warsaw and the various sights. Down to the historical figures depicted it portraits throughout the tour

Ella was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our tour. We paid for a 4 hour tour and were surprised it ended early after 3 hrs 20 minutes. However she was nice and provided a good tour.

Barbara is the best tour guide I have ever encountered. She has extensive knowledge about a variety of subjects due to her academic background at the university. She is an educator at her core. She has excellent command of the English language and gave me an “up close and personal” tour to help me understand a bit more of what it means to be Polish. It is obvious she loves sharing her insights with others. Thank you again.

Fantastic guided tour. Guide was there early and helped in every way possible. She had a vast knowledge of the town and history. She took me to every site listed and some hidden gems as well. Cared to make sure I was taken back to the hotel even after the tour was passed schedule but it a good way.

Our guide was so knowledgeable, had everything planned out perfectly. We saw so much wonderful history. Loved the walking and being part of the polish culture.
