137 reviews
2.5 hours | off the beaten track | Warsaw
Take a journey to pre-war Warsaw, 1/3 of which was inhabited by Jews. Discover places that were important to this community and find out how everything changed for them with the start of WWII. As we will walk beneath the former Jewish quarter of Muranów, we will pay tribute to its given inhabitants.
"We really liked Sebastian. He was very knowledgeable about the buildings, the history, the religions, and he recommended a great restaurant for us which is right where he ended the tour, the Koneser Grill. It was perfect. "
"I was privileged to have had a tour on what remained from the Warsaw Jewish Guetto with Mona. This is a tour where there is less to see and much to learn from. Mona has shared lots of useful pieces of information that provided the right context to the sightseeing. "
"We had a wonderful heritage tour with Marcin. We learned a lot about Warsaw during the war and he personalized it for our family. We are grateful for all of his help, expertise and guidance. "

A Fascinating and Important Tour
"Once again, Mona went above and beyond! She took us around the city and gave us a history of the Jewish community in Warsaw. She took us to sites, showed us pictures and told us many stories full of fascinating and important facts. And although it is a heavy topic, Mona’s tour was full of grace and covered many stories of courage. Thank you Mona!"
"Marcin made the history come alive. He knew a lot of hidden spots that you would walk by but to get a full and complete history of WWII you need to see these sights. He had a passion for showing you the hidden gems and obviously did his research about the area. The tour was very personalized and reflected his deep passion. A not to miss tour and he also leaves you with tips for the rest of your time in Warsaw. We followed these the next day and were not disappointed. "

Great fun....
"Marcin was a very friendly guide. It was an extremely hot day but we walked around Praga at a nice pace. Saw some great areas and also learned some history. Thanks "
"We had an excellent tour with Marcin. He took us through the former ghetto in Warsaw and helped us to get a better understanding of the tragedy of this period in Polish history under Nazi occupation.
The tour was thorough and paced well. We covered several miles of the old ghetto and ended in the old city.
As a musician, Marcin has a unique perspective on history and human interaction. He is thoughtful and showed empathy for the suffering of his fellow countrymen.
I highly recommend his tours for anyone wishing to learn more about Warsaw's history as well as contemporary life in Poland."
"We had Marcin for 2 days of walk around tours. I really knew thing about Warsaw history. Thanks to Marcin I feel like I know this city and its history better now.
it felt like I made a friend by the end!"
"The 3 hrs with Marcin was full of great knowledge sharing. The walk is not hard - you do cover distance but it's an easy walk. The number of different stops there is no way as a tourist I could have found these sites. Marcin was accommodating with all my questions and sent me a number of book titles and films to help increase by learning. I would recommend this 3 hr walk to people wanting a solid foundation in understanding the impact of WW2 on Warsaw. "

Above and beyond!
"Our tour with Marcin is probably one of the top the best tours we've ever done. We're seasoned travelers and this was our first experience with WithLocals and Marcin was terrific. Not only was he informative and specific, he also was engaging, articulate and interesting. He definitely showed us places my husband and I could not have easily found and his understanding of Poland's history and his excellent communication made this tour unforgettable. In addition he sent me, as promised, a list of suggested reading and movies as related to our tour. Above and beyond!"
