- Cristiano F0 contributionsInsightful and Engaging Communist Warsaw TourAbsolutely recommended! This extensive and in-depth tour offers a fascinating journey through Warsaw’s Communist history, covering key landmarks and hidden gems that provide deep insights into the era. Marcin is an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and always ready to share intriguing stories and historical context.

If you’re interested in understanding Warsaw’s past from a unique perspective, this tour is a must!Written February 7, 2025
- Claire G0 contributionsBrilliant tour from knowledgeable guideMy husband and I booked this tour a week before we travelled. Martin collected us at the specified time from our hotel. As luck would have it, we were the only people booked on the tour and so Martin could tailor the tour to us. He took some time to find out why were in Warsaw, what our interests were and what we had already seen. We then set off in our “Zuk” on our tour of the city. We took in all the key sites and stopped at a local bakery for a traditional donut style snack. Martin was excellent throughout. His knowledge of and passion for his country’s history shone through. We learned lots of things we wouldn’t have got from guide books and wandering ourselves. Highly recommend. Thanks Martin, from Claire & Alan 18/1.Written January 18, 2025
- 787grettas0 contributionsVery interestingWe travelled with just two of us on tour, so we're able to have a tailored visit across the city. Martin was very knowledgeable and the tour is well worth the experienceWritten January 8, 2025
- Erika D0 contributionsEnjoyable cold day.The information was very good and he was very knowledgeable, answering all of our questions. The van was very comfortable and warm in a cold day. It was very easy to see out the windows and see the city. I highly recommend this tour.Written January 5, 2025
- S8656WLbriannap0 contributionsBook this tour!This tour was the highlight of my time in Warsaw and I give my highest recommendation for Marcin. The tour helped me understand the history of Poland and Warsaw as it pertains to WW2. Marcin catered the tour to our interests and was enthusiastic to answer any questions we had. I feel like this tour was necessary for me to fully understand and appreciate the city’s history and development. 10/10!Written January 3, 2025
- solow20250 contributionsThe best way to learn history is to live itThis was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had. Reading about history is one thing but getting to live the real history through this tour was just incredible. I was severely uneducated when it came to Polish history and this tour not only gave me background information on its entire history but explained the sentiments and profound memory of Poland. Of course the bus was incredible anytime we stopped we had people trying to take pictures of the bus. Our guide Marcin was extraordinary he spoke very clearly I could understand everything he said. This tour was also very influenced by my own questions as I learned a ton about anything I had questions about so he tailored the experience to fit my needs. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who actually wants to grow intellectually. Finally, the monuments and visuals that were used conveyed both the horror and profound deepness of The polish people.Written January 3, 2025
- Sarbarwell0 contributionsCan’t recommend Marcin and his Tuk highly enough!Marcin’s tailored tour for 4 adults in their 50’s and 3 sons in their 20’s was a perfect introduction to Warsaw. We’d arrived late the previous evening so we arranged an 1100 start and the next few hours were spent understanding more about old and modern history, culture etc. Before we arrived, he also gave us helpful tips via email about where to spend NYE which was helpful! Can’t recommend Marcin and his Tuk highly enough!Written January 3, 2025

Must do Jewish Heritage Tour! From my first email to Marcin and all the planning in between, everything was great. Marcin promptly answers emails and helps with the planning stages . Our tour guide Mariusz was fantastic. We happened to have our scheduled tour on the anniversary of the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and with Mariusz’ planning everything went smoothly. Our driver Matthiew navigated to streets flawlessly. Mariusz was extremely knowledgeable. He took us to a great little local spot for lunch in Praga. If you’re looking for a tour in Warsaw I highly recommend Warsaw Behind the Scenes.

It has been a very interesting and amazing tour, I recommend it. The guide, Karol, was very passionate about the impact of the Jewish community and culture on the city. The historical van is a fun addiction to the tour.
