  Lukas is a great person - a diamond among Warsaw guides. We expected a lot while arranging the warsaw praga tour and looking at the reviews. But what Łukasz showed... read more us exceeded our wildest expectations. He showed us Praga as few have seen, like we steped back in time. Hiddenn places, local backyards - all this we would have missed if we were on our own. He is an expert in his profession. Unforgettable warsaw tour with private guide. We highly recommend Lukas!

  We really enjoyed the Warsaw Ghetto tour with Lukasz. He showed us all the remaining sites and current memorials, which btw. we would have never found without him and gave... read more us detailled information about what happened there. It is really interesting He also took the time to answer all our questions. Furthermore, he also gave us some really interesting insights on Polish society nowadays.
We really recommend doing the tour with Lukasz, it is really worth the money. Also exploring the city by bike is a different experience than just walking or subway.

  I recently took the Warsaw Ghetto Remains Tour with Lukasz and it was an absolute pleasure. Lukasz was a very engaging guide who made easy conversation and showed this part... read more of Warsaw’s history in a way that made it very real.

It covers multiple spots where you will have a chance to see WWII remains mix with the new Warsaw. Lukasz was happy to answer all questions and shared such a vast knowledge of the people, places and events of this time period. After the tour was over, I was hoping it would go on for longer! Thank you so much Lukasz!

  The history of Warsaw and German occupation comes fully to life during this tour. Lucasz is an amazing tour guide with exceptional knowledge about the city's WWII timeline and beyond.... read more He guides the tour in English. The pace of the tour is perfect too. Lucasz has a number of different tour types. We took his Warsaw Ghetto tour and his tour of Old Town Warsaw. Completely phenomenal and reasonably priced. Thanks, Lucasz for making my family's visit to Poland a great one.

The Markiewicza Viaduct is an extension of Karowa The Markiewicza Viaduct is an extension of Karowa Street built in the early 1900s. It's a real treasure that you can see by going off the most touristy Krakowskie Przedmieście Street. The designer Stefan Szyller was an extraordinary Warsaw-based architect who also designed the Zachęta Gallery and Warsaw University of Technology (Politechnika Warszawska). The viaduct is decorated with sculptures by Jan Woydyga: the Warsaw Mermaid and a larger group of statues (pic 3): the woman on the right represents Warsaw. She wears a crown in the shape of the city walls. The man on the left facing the opposite direction symbolizes work, and the man in the middle with the long beard - the Vistula River. . . . . . #warsaw #nightwalk #insta_warsaw #architectureporn #architecturegram #culturetrip #nightshooters #infinity_worldshoot #lensbible #urbanromantix #urbanandstreet #ig_bestaward #polandgrams
The Krasiński Palace was definitely the greatest The Krasiński Palace was definitely the greatest palace of its time in Warsaw, and its designer Tylman von Gameren was the greatest architect. The palace was built in 1668-1700 for the Voivode of Płock and Referendary of the Crown, Jan Dobrogost Krasiński. Visitors coming to Warsaw down Długa Street probably saw this palace before seeing the Royal Castle. The statue of Marcus Valerius, a Roman general on the tympanum was supposed to make people believe that he was Krasiński's ancestor. Modesty at its best😉 . . . . . #warsawcity #walkingtour #sightseeing #richlifestyle #baroquepearls #palace #winterphotography #travelworld_addictio #travelcommunity #warsawlovers #insta_warszawa
I love old cemeteries, mostly for their amazing at I love old cemeteries, mostly for their amazing atmosphere, but they also reflect local history and architecture trends of different times. Here is one of the most unique graves in Warsaw - the Braeunig Family mausoleum at the Evangelical-Augsburg Cemetery. It was built in 1821 in Neo-Gothic style, and this year it turns 200! It's probably the first cast iron monument in Warsaw. The first pic shows the entrance to the underground crypt. On the top there is an iron lacework chapel which you can actually enter. Next time I must visit it after dark. I wish the crypt was open too☠🕷️⚰ . . . . . #warsawcity #winter2021 #cemetery_shots #cemeterylovers #discoverwarsaw #igerswarsaw #warszawanonstop #insta_warsaw #winterwonderland #citybestviews #europe_perfection #instatravelling

The Temple of the Sybil, a garden pavilion from 18 The Temple of the Sybil, a garden pavilion from 1822, designed by Jakub Kubicki. It stands in the 19th century Romantic Garden in the Łazienki Park. It's inspired by ancient temples, especially the Temple of Garni in Armenia. What's interesting about it is that it's entirely made of wood, including columns. . . . . . #lazienkikrolewskie #warsawpoland #historical #architecture #architecturegram #deserve2preserve #archi_ologie #discoverwarsaw #instawarszawa #winterwonderland
The oldest sundial of the Royal Łazienki. It's su The oldest sundial of the Royal Łazienki. It's supported by a sculpture of a Satyr, a male horse or goat-human hybrid from Greek and Roman mythology. They were lovers of wine, music, dancing, and women, always ready for every physical pleasure, with a permanent, exaggerated erection. I think it's a softer version here :-) The sculpture by Johann Chrysostomus Redler or Andre le Brun, ca. 1777. . . . . . #go2warsaw #lazienkikrolewskie #instawarszawa #nowawarszawa #igerswarsaw #polandphotos #winterwonderland #nationaldestinations #hello_worldpics #incredible_europe
