star rating  Together with my Russian friend Darya, I had a walking tour in Sródmiescie with Łukasz.
I highly (and Darya too) recommand Łukasz's tours.
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 !
