Very interesting experience. It was just the tour guide (Jakub). and the two of us. He was extremely knowledgeable and eager to answer all our questions. Awesome tour!!
This was an educational experience with an excellent educator. We saw a lot more than we expected. Thank you for a great tour!
Agata was an EXCELLENT guide!! She had do much information, and took me to all the places I wanted to SEE PLUS she added other points that she wanted me to see. Her knowledge is unsurpassed! The entire tour of sights, guide and transportation were well worth the value!! I highly recommend!!
My guide, Agatha was excellent! She was so knowledgeable and accommodating, I would highly recommend this guide and this tour to anyone interested in learning about the jews, the ghetto and other great points of interest.. So glad I did this in Warsaw!!
Amazing Agata was so knowledgeable and so accommodating. We wanted to change the itinerary and it was not a problem. She knew where to take us and knew all about the new place we wanted to see. This is a MUST excursion for a Jewish feel of Warsaw
Wow! This was such a fantastic way to take a tour. Zipping around the city in a vintage Fiat not only felt like a unique experience, but it was also such a great way to make the most of the time and see as many historic spots as possible. Max and Agata were fantastic tour guides! They were so friendly and knowledgable, and they accommodated a few unique requests that I had. Having private guides made me feel like I could totally personalize the experience and ask as many questions as I wanted. It was also so great that they knew exactly where and how to park and take care of all of the parking meters. Had I tried to figure this out on my own, I certainly wouldn't have been able to see as much as we fit into 4 hours. There is such a rich Jewish history in Warsaw, and you'll absolutely be doing yourself a disservice if you skip this tour. They also handle the dark and egregious history of Jewish persecution with respect and care, making it a truly wonderful testament to the lives lost. Highly recommend!!!
What a fun time! Agata was an amazing tour guide with excellent english speaking skills. The car is fun 4 Americans were a tight fit 😅 3 is great. I would suggest this tour it was great!
Jakub was an excellent guide. Our time was limited as we had a train to catch, and he was able to cover a tremendous amount within the alotted time. What made it so exceptional was his storytelling ability. He did not simply take us from place to place, but through exceptional storytelling and accompanying images was able to weave together a powerful and moving account of the Jewish history of Warsaw. His English was perfect and he was a safe driver of such a tiny old car on the busy city streets. For other parts of our trip we had a guide personally recommended to us. Here we took a chance based on other Viator reviews and were so glad we did.
Great tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide! One problem (which was not our guide’s fault) was that we chose a hotel pickup point which was similar in name to another location of the hotel. When we were going to the pickup point we realized we didn’t know which one as it was not indicated on our ticket. Nor could we contact anyone to clarify. But to repeat, our guide was great and we were very satisfied!
Learned quite a bit about Poland and Warsaw’s history. Also of the tragic years of WWII and tragedy experienced by Poles and Polish Jews.
Max is very knowledgeable. The car is unique. Max pick us up at our hotel even though it wasn't on the list. He also gave us some good tips about Warsaw in general.
We had a wonderful tour with Marcin. He was very knowledgeable on the subject matter and answered all of our questions thoroughly. He showed compassion as he described the events of WW11 and the Holocaust. We highly recommend this tour.
My husband and I really enjoyed the tour with Alek. He was very informative, kind, and knowledgeable! Would highly recommend.
Excellent Tour with a lot of insight. I recommend this warmly! The guide has a lot of knowledge and was very enthusiastic about it. At the same time, he was very accommodating of our desire to enter the synagogue and light a Hanukkah menorah, as well as visit the local kosher store.
An excellent and well organized tour with a knowledgeable, passionate guide who brought the Jewish history to life. The guide Alexander was engaging and we learned so much beyond what a guidebook offers. A fantastic way to truly understand and learn history. We recommend this highly! Thank you Alxenader for this outstanding guided tour you gave us! Kind regards, Mikael & Sana Enroos from Sweden
It was a great tour, with an awesome vintage car and an extremely knowledgeable guide. I was vaguely familiar with most of it, as it's been an interest of mine, but all the extra detail he provided was fascinating, and I especially enjoyed when he would provide personal familial history as it related to the story or location he was talking about. All in all, an excellent tour and I'd recommend it to anyone with even a passing interest in the subject. It was a last minute idea for me when other plans fell through, but I'm so very glad I got to go on this tour.
Very interesting tour, with a personable guide Alek. He answered all of our questions and was very chatty. Fun to drive round in a fiat too! This tour is good to see the unseen / hidden history of Warsaw. Would recommend
Great tour of important Jewish sights in Warsaw. Only way to see these important places. Alex was a great guide.
We had a wonderful informative experience with Alex today. He is exceptionally knowledgeable about Jewish history in Poland.
We had a wonderful time on this private guided tour of the Warsaw ghetto/Warsaw Jewish history in a retro Fiat. Alec was our guide, and he did a fantastic job - from navigating through the city, to his knowledge of all the different tour stops, to his great English speaking and friendly demeanor - he was a gem! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone desiring to learn more about Warsaw’s history, especially of the Warsaw Jewish people. We had a great time!
That it can be tailored to your needs, it’s both educational and, pleasurable. Lots of interesting information relating to Warsaws history v
My wife and I took this tour this week. Easy pickup from our guide at our hotel and he fit a lot into the 4 hours. The guide was informative and answered any questions about the WWI, Russian and modern day. We'd recommend a guide as there are a lot of sites to see, but unless you know where they are and the stories, they are not easy to find nor well marked.
We went on this tour with Marcin. He was so informative and made such a sad and tragic story come alive for us. 5 stars to this tour and to Marcin. Thank you for everything especially the delicious donuts!!
Such a fantastic tour, I was so pleased I chose this tour as it was very thorough and gave great detail and insight into Warsaw’s Jewish heritage. Marcin was an excellent guide and was very knowledgeable.
Highly recommend Konrad's tour of Warsaw's Jewish Heritage. Not only does he have a great sense of humor and lovely demeanor which made the tour super enjoyable, his knowledge of the city's Jewish history was exemplary. We were mainly interested in the Warsaw ghetto and WWII related sites and he accomodated us well. A+++
The tour was exactly as advertised. Konrad was very knowledgeable about Warsaw and the Jewish experience. He was punctual and friendly and shared a great balance of historical events. The cemetery was especially interesting and worth the extra payment. The old car experience was unique.
Karol the tour guide gave a fantastic tour. He was super knowledgeable and very personable. He gave great and interesting explanations of the places on the tour. I highly recommend it
Maks was outstanding. Deeply knowledgeable, empathetic, and thoughtful about Jewish history before, during and after the Warsaw Uprising. Excellent balance between walking and experiencing the many sites and providing background and context. Highly recommended.
Martin had extensive knowledge of Jewish Warsaw. He also shared his unique perspective on current political forces at play in Poland which was fascinating. He was also gracious and made sure we tasted special treats like a Polish donut and stopped for coffee. I’m
First of all, my guide/driver, Karol, was absolutely the best. He is a doctoral student in history, and really knows the information inside out and backwards. He went above and beyond at every stop/site. The 80’s Fiat was a fun bonus! Karol covered all of the important and even some lesser Jewish Warsaw sites and general Warsaw history and associated buildings, monuments, memorials, etc. So, why, you ask, did I give this tour 4 stars and not 5? It’s simple, and was not under Karol’s control. I flew into Warsaw in the afternoon and booked the 500pm tour, since it’s summer time and it’s light outside until after 900pm. However, I was not told that neither the synagogue nor the Jewish cemetery would be available to enter after 500pm. This is a serious error on the part of the tour company, as it would have been very meaningful to me. It should be clearly noted that you can have a nice tour starting at 500pm, but it CANNOT include entry to the synagogue or cemetery. If I had known this in advance, I would have booked for the following morning. Despite this, the tour overall was remarkably well done and extremely meaningful to me. You should definitely take this tour, and I hope you have Karol as your guide.
Maks is 10 out of 10 in historical knowlege, careful thinking about each question you may ask, and warm and thoughtful presentations of Warsaw's Jewish history. Even my husband who is an avid student of WW2 era history learned facts he didn't know. I would spend a day with Maks for any purpose, but spending a half-day of learning and explanation absolutely exceeded our expectations. Riding about town in a vintage bright yellow fiat was the frosting on the cake. I can't over-praise this tour - you will not have a single regret.
Karol was a very knowledgeable guide (and a good driver of a vintage Communist-era Fiat. He was flexible and took us to see the sites we were interested in. In addition, he was patient with us when we stopped in a small store (Mi Polin) near a synagogue where they sold mezuzot made from molds of the original doorposts of homes of Jewish people in various towns in Poland. We enjoyed this tour very much.
Konrad our guide was fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable about the Ghetto and the surrounding area. We very much enjoyed our time with him. He was also extremely helpful with regard to things to see and do in Warsaw. Thanks Konrad for a wonderful time and Polish hospitality!!
Max was a great guide. He was informative and balanced in his approach. He allowed me to spend more time where I wanted to (the Jewish Cemetary) and gave me suggestions for the rest of my trip. I woould highly recommend this tour.
My guide Marcin was wonderful and provided a very personalized and meaningful tour. He had a vast knowledge of Warsaw Jewish history and Polish history and taught me a great deal. I highly recommend him and this tour. Thank you!
Ou guide MAKS was incredible! So knowledgeable! This tour was worth while and allowed us to see things we couldn’t have on our own. Thank you!
Thanks to Marcin deep knowledge of the city and history the tour helped put the plight of Jews in perspective. The time on this tour made the events quite real. Must say that the driving experience on the relic car made it so much more immersive (kudos to the maintenance expert)
It was a great trip Took us to places we may have struggled to find.Especially as it was so cold We were snuggled in our retro car Knowledgeable driver who told us lots of interesting bits of information Thoroughly recommended
The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. He took me to all the sites I wanted to go to and to others I did not even know existed. It was worth both the time and the money without exception. Highly recommend if you are interested in Jewish History during WWII Warsaw. Excellent!
Learned a lot of the Jewish history in Warsaw during WWII. We really enjoyed our guide and were able to see all that we wanted....plus the car was fun!
So pleased with my 4-hour private tour of Warsaw with Marcin. After taking an initial tour of the city with another company, that promised to cover the history of the Jewish ghettos and uprising, I found myself left wanting something more in-depth. I got it with this tour. This tour specifically covered Warsaw’s Jewish heritage, from pre-war times to present, with a focus on visiting sites of interest and hearing about the city’s history from WW2. Marcin was a fantastic and very personable host, and his knowledge of the history of Warsaw was incredible. This gentleman is very passionate about what he does and it shows. I couldn’t have asked for a better tour and would highly recommend it. Thanks again!

Konrad was excellent. He narrated the tour with the sincerity that showed his deep appreciation for Polish Jewish heritage. He also was able to joke with us and made the tour enjoyable and personal. My wife and I loved Konrad and the fascinating tour. Highly recommend!
This was an amazing experience. The only way to see the Warsaw Ghetto in its entirety is with a tour, as the places of interest and monuments are very spread out. My guide was thoughtful, knowledgeable and a lot of fun. I had a lot of questions and he answered them all. The Fiat is a blast and a real head turner. Most importantly is the way you are treated. This company was amazing. Initially I booked the morning tour. When she sent a message saying the morning tour was booked, I replied that I didn’t know Warsaw and needed to be to the Taylor Swift concert on time. They dropped me off at the Stadium!!
Traveling throughout Europe this summer and in town with my 16 year old daughter for the Taylor Swift concert but wanted to take the opportunity to see Warsaw and learn more about the history of the Warsaw Ghetto and it's importance and we could not have had a better experience. Marcin, our guide, was seriously wonderful and made our "4 hours of learning feel like 2". For a young person to come away from a guided tour and say that while still fully appreciating the seriousness of the topic is extraordinary. She and I really enjoyed the tour and learned so much and in such an easy going manner. Besides that, we had an opportunity to get to know Marcin a bit as well and his training as a teacher and wealth of knowledge really combined to create a great environment for learning for both of us. Highly recommend and Marcin, we wish u the best of everything. Thank you!!
This was a fun and informative experience. Our driver, Marcin, was an excellent driver and also a great guide who knew his information. We enjoyed going to the places that were on the itinerary. A very moving experience.
I thought ithis tour was expensive when I booked it, but having done it now, I can say it was 💯 worth it! We would never have seen or learned so much about what happened during the Holocaust in Warsaw without our fabulous guide. Marcin also shared some of his family’s experiences, which greatly enriched our understanding.
Marcin the guide was wonderful, knowledgeable, and helpful. We stoped at important and meaningful sites. Highly recommended.
Marcin the guide was wonderful, knowledgeable, and thorough. The stops at the tour were meaningful and important.
Our guide Hania was excellent for several reasons. Firstly, we had 2 children (pre teens) and she adjusted the itinerary in consultation with us to make it more interesting for them as well. She was very professional and answered all our questions patiently. Lastly, she left us with good recommendations for where to eat and what else to do after the tour. We never felt like she hurried us. The car itself was a bonus. I’m glad it was early in the day, because towards lunch time, it was getting warm and humid. Hanna ensured we stood in the shade while she explained about the places and their history.
