You will discover Warsaw like with a friend, usually it's like a private tour or a very small group (up to 4 persons).

Take a journey to pre-war Warsaw, one third of which was inhabited by Jews. Discover the places that were important to this community: streets, garden and squares; find out how everything changed for them with the start of the WWII. As we will walk beneath the former Jewish quarter of Muranów, we will pay tribute to its given inhabitants. We will stroll along the quiet, green streets that once bustled with the life and bustle of Jewish shops and manufactories. We will visit memorials created in the past and more recent ones, such as a mural on one of the walls of a rebuilt building. It will be a real journey into the past.

Looking forward to meet you in Warsaw!

Moving, rich experience. Mona, a gentle, highly knowledgeable woman immersed my niece and I in the history as well as the emotion of the Jewish uprising. Recognizing the struggle of human survival of the event was both heartbreaking and enlightening. To know this history is to know a critical facet of Warsaw. Taking this tour is giving homage to this resilient and beautiful city.
Great educational tour
