A rich, informative, moving experience, full of historical insight

5.00Our tour of the Warsaw Ghetto with Marzena was a deeply moving and informative experience. The walking tour itself was full of architectural and urban history interest - not only how the ghetto came to be, but how the city looked and lived before and how it was reconstructed afterwards. The horror of that time was not glossed over, but the tour was much more than that. Marzena explained historical processes with a depth and clarity that shed light on how the Nazis were able to win legitimacy and even collaboration. She showed us maps and photographs that illuminated complicated histories. She answered all our questions cheerfully and was open to learning from us in turn. And at the end, by the site where people were shipped out in cattle wagons, she gave us some quiet time to reflect and mourn.
Excellent

5.00Since there was no one else for the tour that day, our guide Marzena ended up serving only me and my son. How lucky, ours. It was a private lesson about the Jewish life in Poland before the war, about the creation and life in the ghetto and the Jews the country after the war. Deep knowledge, was attentive and answered all our questions with sympathy and knowledge. Couldn't have had a better tour
Very nice little tour.

5.00The tour of the Warsaw Ghetto was very impressive and moving. She was led by an extremely professional and competent guide who spoke perfect German. Their insider knowledge as well as the many historical details about the ghetto made this emotional tour a special experience that we will remember for a long time. Finally, we highly recommend visiting the Museum of the 1000-year history of Jews in Poland.

5.00Our experience with Marzena was excellent. She is an extremely knowledgeable and talented guide. We spent three hours with her within the boundaries of the Warsaw Ghetto and each step of our journey was accompanied by Marzena’s deep knowledge of the history of this painful site. If you want to find out about the history of the Ghetto and you want to do this in a thought provoking and respectful manner, I would fully recommend Marzena. We are planning to return next year and we will definitely book Marzena as our guide.
