Tour description
Discover a city reborn on this free walking tour of Warsaw's beautifully reconstructed old town.

Learn the astonishing story of how the historic centre — flattened in WWII — was rebuilt brick by brick, stroll the elegant Royal Route, and hear tales of kings, Chopin and Polish resilience. Pick up insider tips on pierogi, vodka and the best milk bars. Free to join — simply tip your guide whatever you feel it was worth at the end.
