This private Warsaw sightseeing tour is perfect for travelers who want more than a fixed, one-size-fits-all itinerary. Instead of following a rigid route, you explore the city at your own pace, focusing on what truly interests you.
Your guide picks you up at your hotel and invites you aboard a classic retro minibus, adding character, comfort, and a touch of time travel to the experience. You can plan the route in advance or shape it together with your guide at the start of the tour.
From the historic Old Town and royal landmarks to World War II stories, communist-era Warsaw, or authentic neighborhoods like Praga, this tour adapts to your curiosity. With limited time and countless possibilities, your local guide ensures you see the highlights that matter most to you.
Flexible, engaging, and personal, this tour is an ideal way to experience Warsaw, whether it’s your first visit or a return to the city.

Old Town
Warsaw Old Town - it is one of the suggestions. The Old Town is an excellent start to discovering Warsaw. On the walk, you see Castle Square, where the story of Warsaw started more than 700 years ago. The king who believed to have both Polish and Swedish thrones, old trade paths and signs of German gothic era settlers. There is so much to find! As the walk continues, you discover the gothic Cathedral, narrow side streets filled with tenement houses, a viewing point at the old riverside, and finally, you reach the Market Square. Colourful and prestigious tenement houses with restaurants surround the square: it’s an excellent place to slow down, take a breath and investigate the story of the Warsaw mermaid. If you’re lucky enough, you will meet a Warsaw barrel organ player and listen to (very) old top hits.
Royal Route - it is one of the suggestions. Krakowskie Przedmieście is Poland’s capital, Warsaw’s best-known and most prestigious streets, surrounded by historic palaces, churches, and manor-houses. It links the Old Town and Royal Castle with some of the most notable institutions in Warsaw, including the Presidential Palace, Warsaw University, and the Polish Academy of Sciences, headquartered in the Staszic Palace. The direct southward extension of Krakowskie Przedmieście along the Royal Route is called Nowy Świat, with the famous palm tree at its end.

Tom our guide was very knowledgeable and tailored the tour to what we wanted to know and understand better. Really nice to travel around in a retro bus, we asked questions and took loads of pictures while listening to the history of each location and the stories behind the war and communism rule in Poland. I rate this tour very highly and enjoyed all the aspects of what we were hearing and seeing.

Our guide was very affable and clearly had a deep understanding of history. He really brought history alive by viewing historical sites through the lens’s of the modern world. Our experience felt like a long conversation rather than a tour.

Fantastic tour! My family was picked up at the hotel and had a private tour packed with the communist sites and Praga. Martin is personable and histories are informative and interesting. We had two teen children along for the ride and they were engaged the entire time. There was so much interesting info about the city and its history. Story telling was top-notch. And it was an adventure to be driven around in a vintage Zuc! Great day!
