Overview
This private tour is designed as an introduction to Warsaw, ideal for those who want to understand the city rather than just see it. Instead of rushing through highlights with a large group, you explore at a relaxed pace, combining walking with scenic drives that allow you to experience very different parts of the city in a short time.
Traveling by a vintage Żuk minibus adds a distinctive character to the tour. It’s not just transportation, but part of the story - connecting Warsaw’s past with the present while making it easy to reach districts that are often skipped on standard tours. The route balances must-see landmarks like the Old Town with less touristy areas such as Praga.
Led by a knowledgeable local guide, the tour focuses on context, everyday life, and historical transitions—from beginnings, through wartime destruction and communist reconstruction, to modern Warsaw. The private format allows for flexibility, questions, and a personal experience tailored to your interests.

Old TownBegin with a guided walk through Warsaw’s Old Town, the historic core of the city. At Castle Square, learn how Warsaw grew over more than 700 years, shaped by royal ambitions, medieval trade routes, and influences from across Europe.
-
Royal Castle in Warsaw - MuseumHear the story of the Royal Castle, once the official residence of Polish monarchs. Burned and looted during the Nazi invasion in 1939 and almost completely destroyed after the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, it was carefully reconstructed in the postwar years as a symbol of national resilience.
-
Castle Square (Plac Zamkowy)Explore Castle Square, one of Warsaw’s most important landmarks. Dominated by Sigismund’s Column and surrounded by historic townhouses, the square stands in front of the Royal Castle and marks the starting point of the famous Royal Route.
-
Archikatedra Sw. Jana ChrzcicielaVisit St. John’s Archcathedral, one of Poland’s national pantheons, located beside the Jesuit Church in the heart of the Old Town. Together with the surrounding area, it forms part of Warsaw’s UNESCO-listed historic center.
-
Rynek Starego MiastaContinue through narrow streets lined with historic townhouses and river viewpoints before reaching the Old Town Market Square. Surrounded by colorful façades and cafés, this is where you’ll hear the legend of the Warsaw Mermaid and, if you’re lucky, enjoy the sounds of a traditional barrel organ.
-
Warsaw Barbican (Barbakan Warszawski)On the way back to the minibus, see preserved fragments of Warsaw’s original medieval city walls and learn how the Old Town was meticulously rebuilt after World War II.
-
Praga PolnocCross the Vistula River to Praga, the only district of Warsaw that survived World War II largely intact. Admire Belle Époque buildings, lively courtyards, and an authentic atmosphere that reflects pre-war Warsaw. Once neglected, Praga is now a creative and cultural hub, still largely free from mass tourism.
- A rumour circulates in Warsaw that the Palm Tree is a gift from the city of Jerusalem for Warsaw, that in this way, Israeli wanted to show Poles what a real Christmas tree looks like. As the Polish expression ‘hit by a palm tree’ refers to something unthinkable, a behaviour that verges on being silly, even idiotic, the project thus embodies substantial humour and irony, which saves it from linear reading and suggests something that escapes palpable understanding. (pass by)
-
Return to central Warsaw and stop near the former Communist Party headquarters. Learn how post-1945 rebuilding was shaped by Soviet-style ideology and see how architecture was used to combine functionality with political messaging.
- Pass the Palace of Culture and Science, Warsaw’s most recognizable landmark. Built between 1952 and 1955 as a gift from the Soviet Union, it remains a powerful symbol of the communist era. (pass by)
