    Like the tour. Seeing warsaw in another angle. Our guide (Marks) and driver (Adam) had done great job. Marks has provided the context of the location we were; and with some interesting fact behind :)

    The guide was great, funny and knowledgeable. The experience itself wasn’t that great because of a large group of american tourists that were being very loud and drinking on the bus. We also had to rush through our stops quite a lot, which I assume was in part because of that same group that were late.
