What To Expect

Old Town

The Old Town is not only the historical part of Warsaw. It must be remembered that until the end of the 18th century, Warsaw included only the Old Town, so called Old Warsaw. The New Town, formerly known as New Warsaw, was incorporated later. Previously, these were two separate cities, each of them had its own coat of arms. Old Warsaw Mermaid, New Warsaw Lady with a Unicorn. During our trip we will see, among others, the column of King Sigismund III Vasa in front of the Royal Castle, formerly the castle of Masovian dukes. From there, we will go to the Cathedral of St. John, where we will see the tombs of Masovian dukes. We will visit the Museum of Warsaw where we can admire the historic mermaid, saved from the Warsaw Uprising. We will go through the Barbican, which was the former fortification separating New and Old Warsaw. We will see the historic bell at the Kanonia square. Finally, we will see Chopin’s heart embedded in the Church of the Holly Cross.

What I loved most was that our guide didn’t just list historical events — he told stories about the people who lived here. The old photos on his tablet, his wit, and his deep knowledge made Warsaw’s past feel close and real.

I expected a typical sightseeing tour, but this was something else. Our guide showed us hidden corners, explained how the city was rebuilt, and even shared personal memories from his family. It felt honest, emotional and beautifully told.

I thought I knew Warsaw, especially the Old Town - I was wrong. When I took a walk in Warsaw with a guide named Cezary, I saw the same places in a different light. I learned a lot of history about these places and the people associated with them. I am impressed. I recommend it.
I'm getting to know Warsaw anew

I thought I knew the Old Town well, but now, this great guide has shown me that I was wrong. I now perceive the Sigismund's Column and the Royal Castle differently. I am rediscovering the streets, tenements, and noticing symbols that I hadn’t seen before. It was a true experience. I recommend it.
