Our friendly and easygoing guide will take you through times: you'll explore pre-war streets as well as monumental communist squares. This is not a regular tour, so we'll take you to the local people's bar to let you taste our traditional and delicius Polish food. At the end we'll relax in a cool pub or have a picnic at the riverside. Our tours are highly individual and flexible. This is not a bus city tour or a free walking tour, this is almost like a private tour! « less

Unexpectedly had to decide whether to cancel a trip to Warsaw because my buddy had to go to the hospital. After emailing Marcin about the situation, decided to take a chance and came by myself. Very glad I did. Was met the airport and when I mentioned that I was in the oil business, he changed the tour to take... More

I was there in Warsaw last month in mid April. I am from Asia and this was my first trip to central Europe. I had absolutely no idea about the place and wanted to see the place and learn about the city in my own pace. I emailed and also spoke to Marcin before I left from India. I got... More

I had a day to spend in Warsaw and wanted to learn a little more about the city. Warsaw Behind the Scenes tour did a fantastic job of taking us to the most important spots of the city, but also showing us areas that I would not have normally been exposed to. Our guide, Marcin, was simply fantastic and very... More

Of our long weekend trip to Warsaw we recommend this tour as the best we got from the city. The secret of the tour is that you get the stories of the town, you get the insight in the Poles and the details of their long and war-torn history. It is those stories that make the city special, because the... More

So you're going to Warsaw and want to get into the history of the place, understand what went on and see the key sights...say no more... Marcin (I though he was called Martin...) picked us up at our hotel and took us on a fabulous tour of Warsaw. If history lessons were like this when I was at school I... More

What could be more fun than touring Warsaw with Marcin and his Polski Fiat "Blondie"? They took us to various places that one could not find on their own or on a package tour. Along with his book of maps and photos, he explained the many changes that the city of Warsaw had gone through. The conflicts and turmoil that... More

A unique tour in a unique city. Martin took us to places we never would have found ourselves and told us stories full of insight and with a charming personal touch. Interesting, funny, enjoyable and highly recommendable. Very happy that we took this tour on our first day in Warsaw, it made the rest of our four day stay very... More

I can't stress enough how important this tour was for us. We booked a private tour as we wanted to combine the "behind the scene-tour" and some food tasting chanses to see markets and good places to visit in the evening. This was the very first thing we did when arriving in Warsaw. Marcin picked us up at the hotel... More

Wow! This tour was just amazing! Marcin was a great, very knowledgeable, fun and flexible tour guide. My wife Julie and I were just in Warsaw for 1 night, so we contacted Marcin to see if he could make a custom tour for us combining the day tour and evening tour. He was very happy to accommodate us. This tour... More

I visited Warsaw in April 2013 and had just 1 day there. After reading the reviews on here I decided that this tour was the best way to see the city. I was not wrong! Marcin was brilliant and really bought the city to life for me. He is very friendly and I immediately felt as ease with him. I... More
