There was a time when one third of Warsaw's inhabitants considered themselves Jewish. A time when Warsaw was home to the biggest Jewish population in Europe.

World War II brought all of that to a devastating end.

Take a journey down the almost 1000-year-old Jewish history of Poland and Warsaw, from their arrival, their expansion, their tragic and heroic struggle, and their remerging, quiet renaissance.

Sign up for this walking tour if you would like to find out how and why the Jews settled in Poland, discover the few remaining sites that still remind us about the once thriving Jewish presence in the city, hear the heart-breaking, first-hand accounts of Jews who survived life in the ghetto, understand why Jews incited the Jewish Uprising in 1943 even though they knew they would fail, learn about the current situation of the Jewish community in Warsaw.

Don't just visit Warsaw, discover it!

This walking tour was one of the best walking tours I have ever been on. We had such a great time and learned a lot from Olivia. She tailored our tour based on what we were interested in, which included a delicious dessert break, deep conversations about religion and hope, and lots of laughs. There were just 5 of us and Olivia, and we ended as such good friends. Olivia brought a binder of photos to compare with how everything looks like today, which was super interesting and helpful. Her knowledge was excellent and she made the tour an interactive story. Thank you so much Olivia and to those interested in the best Jewish Ghetto Warsaw tour, you must choose this!
Olivia is an excellent tour guide.

Incredible and knowledgeable tour guide ("Aga") made this "bucket list" experience that far, far exceeded my expectations! "Encourage anyone seeking their Jewish roots in Poland to take the tour and understand the history.

This was, by far, the best walking tour we’ve ever taken. Not only is Oliwia incredibly knowledgeable about the Ghetto, she’s also an historian and so placed the Ghetto within the larger context of Germany’s invasion in 1939. The three hours we were supposed to spend on this tour stretched to *eight*, simply because there was so much to learn (and, yes, times where we needed to stop and warm up over French fries). But we never felt rushed or like we were a burden. This was also more than simply a tour highlighting a particular place and epoch. Thanks to Oliwia’s knowledge base, this opened a small window into only one trauma and struggle in Poland’s past that has echoes to this day. By pure happenstance, we met a man in his 90s near the location of the Bridge of Sighs who was 7 when the Nazis came to town. We spent a good twenty minutes listening to him recall that time to Oliwia—and he was pretty clear that he sees parallels between what happened then and what’s going on now in the US (and around the world). That was sobering and not something you normally hear. Take this tour with Oliwia: a truly knowledgeable, entertaining, wickedly funny woman. You’ll walk away with much more than you bargained for.
Exceptional and Thought-Provoking Walking Tour

This was an outstanding and deeply meaningful tour of Jewish Warsaw. Olivia did a fantastic job and is an incredible historian of the city. Her knowledge was extensive, but what truly set her apart was her clear passion for the subject—you could feel how much this history matters to her. She used visual materials throughout the tour, which were a huge asset and really helped bring to life the rise, destruction, and transformation of different parts of the city. The visuals made it much easier to understand how Warsaw once looked and how dramatically it changed over time. The tour is quite long and involves a significant amount of walking, so if you are not comfortable walking longer distances, I would recommend either choosing a different tour or asking in advance about a shortened version. That said, shortening it would mean missing out on a wealth of important context and detail, so if you’re able to do the full tour, it is absolutely worth it. This tour is powerful, informative, and incredibly well delivered. If you want to truly understand Jewish history in Warsaw—not just see sites, but grasp their significance—I highly recommend this experience.
