5.00I would rate this 10 stars if I could! I booked the night prior and was confirmed in a timely manner. Agata showed up right on schedule and the tour was packed with incredible insight on architecture, monuments, and neighborhoods during communist era Warsaw. Agata also had so much insight as a local that I would have not received otherwise. It was an amazing way to spend the day and this tour has by far been my favorite experience while visiting Poland. Even if you are not interested in history, there was still so much to take in. I was short on time and this was the absolute best way to see everything!

5.00Agata was a wonderful guide. Her knowledge of that era was in depth and relatable. She was very happy to take us to the sights we wanted to see instead of a pre-set itinerary. The Fiat ride was a blast from the past. Great fun. The tour was in English.
Excellent experience around Warsaw

5.00Alek has been a great guide, with a perfect command of English and an excellent level of knowledge about the city past and present. The experience of driving around the city in a Fiat 125p gives an immersive historic experience

5.00Our guide Alek met us on time and was a great guide. Very passionate about the history of Poland and the politics that made it the country we see today. We learned much more than we would by just wandering through the town and had a laugh while doing so. Four adults in a 1980’s Fiat can be very cosy! Thanks Alek.
Unique and fascinating tour

5.00Fascinating tour of post-WWII Warsaw with a number of stops we would not have otherwise known about or had time to see. Max was extremely knowledgeable and answered our many questions with good humor. I might have preferred a more modern vehicle, but I get the retro car is part of the experience… highly recommend for anyone interested in the politics of the Soviet bloc and life under communism in Poland.
Book Jakub as your guide, if possible

5.00We had a very nice and knowledgeable guide, Jakub, who shared a lot of insights and made us aware of a lot of things we would have missed otherwise. A big thanks to him for taking us to places we would never have visited as simple tourists. Plus, riding in the old Polski Fiat was quite some experience. Good that Jakub is an experienced driver as well!
