Highlights included seeing some sites where “The Pianist” was filmed, walking around and lunch in the Praga district, and storied details around Lazienki park.

He is, of course as... read more a guide,very knowledgeable. He loves his city and shared it with us.
He showed us and commented many interesting points, courtyards, buildings, squares. And Łukasz made always sure we were happy and comfortable.
Well he is a tour guide for a reason.
Plus Łukasz gave us hints how to satisfy our thirst for knowledge if ever needed. I wont tell how exactly, you will need to book the tour to discover it by yourselves.
Thank you Łukasz for this great afternoon ! I wish you the best for your carreer and life !

  I got a private tour due to the fact that Warsaw isn't this popular with tourists this time of the year. Lukasz is a very engaging and knowledgable tour guide... read more and it was nice to learn more about Warsaw and Poland from him. Can definitely recommend this tour.

  Can’t say enough about our guide Lukasz. He was punctual, personable, open minded, humorous and loaded with information. We gained immense insight into the history of Warsaw particularly... read more the destruction World War II brought (in both human and material terms) and the rebuilding that followed. It was also great to experience the beauty of the city with our walk through the King’s Gardens. We were 4 adult siblings traveling together and came home with a greater appreciation for the country of our ancestors. Thank you Lukasz.

  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!

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.

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😉

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☠🕷️⚰

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.

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.
