Overview
This private Warsaw sightseeing tour is ideal for travelers who want a solid introduction to the city with more comfort and flexibility than a standard walking tour. Your guide meets you at your hotel and welcomes you aboard a vintage Żuk minibus—an iconic Polish vehicle that adds character and historical atmosphere.
The drive toward Warsaw’s Old Town offers a panoramic first impression of the city. The walking part begins at Castle Square, where vehicle access is restricted. From medieval times to the modern era, you’ll explore key landmarks such as the Royal Castle, Market Square, St. John’s Archcathedral, and the Barbican, along with details often missed by visitors.
Along the way, learn about Warsaw’s near-total destruction during World War II, its remarkable postwar reconstruction, and how the communist period shaped the city’s architecture. As this is a private tour, the itinerary can be adjusted to your interests, while the minibus allows you to cover more ground efficiently.

Castle Square (Plac Zamkowy)After the transfer, you begin exploring the Warsaw Old Town on foot (cars are not permitted there). The tour begins at Castle Square, the symbolic heart of Warsaw. This historic square marks the birthplace of the city over 700 years ago and serves as the gateway to the Old Town. Your guide introduces Warsaw’s origins, royal history, and the dramatic events that shaped the capital.
-
King Sigismund's Column (Kolumna Zygmunta)Standing proudly in the center of Castle Square, King Sigismund’s Column commemorates the monarch who moved Poland’s capital from Kraków to Warsaw. Learn why a Swedish-born king became one of the city’s most important historical figures and how the column itself survived destruction and reconstruction.
- Visit the exterior of the Royal Castle, once the official residence of Polish kings and a symbol of state power. Hear how the castle was looted and destroyed during World War II and later meticulously rebuilt as an act of national determination and historical continuity. (pass by)
-
Continue along Świętojańska Street to St. John’s Archcathedral, Warsaw’s oldest church and one of Poland’s national pantheons. This Gothic landmark is closely tied to Polish monarchy, state ceremonies, and the history of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.
-
Gnojna GoraStep slightly off the main route to Gnojna Góra, a lesser-known viewpoint offering insight into everyday life in historic Warsaw. This spot provides context for the city’s former defensive systems and river trade routes.
-
Rynek Starego MiastaArrive at the vibrant Old Town Market Square, surrounded by colorful townhouses rebuilt after World War II. Here you’ll hear the legend of the Warsaw Mermaid, the city’s symbol, and learn how the square functioned as the center of civic life for centuries.
-
Warsaw Barbican (Barbakan Warszawski)Walk along the medieval defensive walls to the Barbican, a fortified gateway that once protected the city. Your guide explains Warsaw’s fortifications and the extraordinary postwar reconstruction that returned this area to its historic appearance.
- Travel outside the Old Town to Krasiński Square to see the powerful Warsaw Uprising Monument. Learn about the 1944 uprising against Nazi occupation and the immense sacrifices made by the city’s residents. (pass by)
- The tour concludes at Piłsudski Square with the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, one of Poland’s most important national memorials. This solemn site honors fallen soldiers and provides a moment to reflect on Warsaw’s turbulent history and resilience. (pass by)
