A 4 hour driving tour of Warsaw in this classic Fiat was a great way to see the city. Our guide did an excellent job conveying all the history of Warsaw, answered all our questions and seemed to know everything. She was a very pleasant person to spend time with and navigated the city with ease. She spoke perfect English and met us on time. It was funny to see how many people took pictures of the car as we drove by.

Incredibly knowledgeable guide, who explained this period in history with balance, humanity and empathy. 4 hours went by in a flash. Well worth doing.

One of the best tours I have ever participated in, and a must for all visitors to Warsaw who are interested in history. Marcin, our guide, picked us up from our hotel, and fed us with so many interesting historical insights from the start until the end. Driving in the retro Fiat made the tour even more interesting. The stops mostly involved leaving the car and walking to the site (remnant of Ghetto wall, various memorials, Jewish cemetery etc) but also quick stops whilst remaining in the car (Marcin showed us old photos of sites where we were, which allowed us to imagine how it looked like). Being interested in history, I asked many questions and Marcin has a vast knowledge. My daughter who is 11 was also able to follow Marcin’s explanations and still talks about the tour fondly. I highly recommend this very interesting tour!
