During this tour I’d like to show you all must-see spots in the historical part of Warsaw as well as some nice places with local food, narrow streets with beautiful views, the Vistula river bank and some places off the beaten track.
You will hear the story of the rich beautiful city that was almost totally destroyed by the Nazis during the WW2, then reborn like the phoenix from ashes, you will discover the story of the Warsaw Mermaid, will see the narrowest house in Poland, the magical bell that makes your dreams come true, the monument to the youngest fighters from Warsaw Uprising and much more.
This tour can be a good start for discovering Warsaw on your own. I will give you recommendations for interesting places and events as well as public transport and any other practical information.
