Get to know the sights in Poland's capital on a full-day tour to explore the city of Warsaw. With the company of a private guide, visit some of the most important sites from the city's long and remarkable past, all as you get to know the city's background and its role in the history of Poland.
Start your route with a visit to the city's Old Town. Now inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, after World War II, much of Warsaw lay in ruins. It has been painstakingly restored to its former glory, with buildings dating from the 13th to the 20th-century. Pass the former residence of Polish monarchs at the Royal Castle, the Baroque edifice of Krasinski Palace, the modern columns of the Supreme Court building, and the monument dedicated to the Warsaw Uprising of 1944.
Visit the city's largest park, Lazienki Park, where you see the famous monument to Frédéric Chopin. During World War II, the Royal Lazienki was extensively plundered and heavily damaged by the German occupiers. In 1960, after many years of careful restoration, the Royal Lazienki was returned to the Polish people as a museum. Walk around the sublime park with its serene Palace on the Water, see the beautiful Orangery and Amphitheater, and admire the exquisite Island Theatre, nestled among the sound of ducks and swans. Take the chance to relax in the beautiful rose garden and among the outstanding nature of this place.
Explore the Jewish part of Warsaw. Poles and Jews coexisted side by side on Polish territory for seven centuries. You can still find many traces of Jewish heritage in our country, whether material, like historical architecture, or immaterial, like recurring cultural events, trails, traditions and cuisine. Stop by the Monument to the Ghetto Heroes and Umschlagplatz Monument, the place from which Jewish people were transported to the extermination camp in Treblinka. Listen to the tragic story of Warsaw Jews. Walk inside the ghetto part and see the fragments of the ghetto wall.
Cross the bridge to east side of Vistula River and discover a different face of the Polish capital, the most authentic part of the city. Take a walk along the most famous street Zabkowska. Look out for surprises in the most unexpected places. Discover shrines hidden away in the courtyards. Seek out the original murals found in the area. Step into the Bazaar Rozyckiego, Warsaw’s oldest market. Taste the best pyzy and flaki in Warsaw.
Relax in a luxury car on the way back to your hotel.
