Warsaw Off the Beaten Path & Local Pastry
Tour info
Why take this tour?
Discover Warsaw’s downtown off the beaten track - its Southern part. You will see places that even locals may not know. First find the former communist headquarters. Then stroll over a mysterious section of the Warsaw Escarpment. We’ll look for a secret meeting spot from the 1700s, and for the former Mason's lodge. Then we'll look for bullet holes on façades of buildings where the German Nazis resided. Wander around a cool urban garden, and stop at an elegant 19th century park. Walk down an elegant venue with 19th century residences of Warsaw elite. Cross a significant communist era housing estate, and visit a beautiful university complex. Then find out where the "Pianist" movie was filmed, and stop at my favourite sweet shop to try some of their incredible pastry. The tour will come to its close at a cozy food venue, where perhaps you will like to stay. This tour will allow you to see Warsaw from a local's perspective, and to see a fascinating area that visitors usually miss.

About operator:
My name is Łukasz, and I was born in Warsaw. This is the city of my ancestors: my family has been living here since the 19th century. I studied social psychology, and I`ve been a professional licensed guide of Warsaw since 2013. I'm also a certified guide of the Royal Castle. I guide people from all over the world, and this is what`s incredible about it - meeting people from different cultures. I love my job and I love sharing my knowledge and passion about my city :-) I am the author and curator of two websites about Warsaw - Warsawcitytours.pl and Klimatwarszawy.pl, where I write about history, architecture, local restaurants, museums, public art and places that I think are worth visiting, but cannot be found in regular guide books.
