What To Expect
Look for the artefacts, relics and remains of the Jewish culture in Warsaw. This 3 hours private tour with the retro minibus lets you explore much more than the typical walking one. The tour covers all of the essential sites from the Jewish Ghetto, the story of the Uprising in 1943, main scenes like the Ghetto Heroes memorial, and the places off the regular tourist path.
Just after NYC, Warsaw was the most significant Jewish city in pre-war Europe and second on the planet. World War II took its toll - Nazis flattened the Jewish district and most of Warsaw. From many places en route, especially worth mentioning are Grzybowski Sq. with Prozna St., the piece of the ghetto wall, Umschlagplatz, Mila 18, POLIN museum neighbourhood and Janusz Korczak monument. Visit to the Synagogue and Cemetery is optional. Many things on this private tour are up to you, but you can rely on the guide regarding preparation, experience, and historical knowledge.

Meeting Point
Traveler pickup is offered
Pickup service from hotels, Airbnb and apartments is available up to 3 kilometres from the city centre. If your hotel/apartment is farther or inaccessible by car, our advisor will suggest the closest and most comfortable meeting point. Please note that transfer from and to the hotel counts into the total time of the tour. Therefore, sometimes it is better to meet the guide in the city centre rather than spend time transferring from the far-located pickup spot.
