Discover a reborn city on a free walking tour around the beautifully reconstructed Warsaw Old Town. Together with a local guide, you will meet at Castle Square in front of the Royal Castle, stroll through the colorful Old Town Market Square with its iconic mermaid statue, and visit the medieval Barbican and city walls.
