  Lukasz led a friend and I on a custom tour of Warsaw, with a focus on the Praga District. To start, he asked us about what we were interested to... read more see that day, and worked the day around that. We covered lots of ground! Highlights included seeing some sites where “The Pianist” was filmed, walking around and lunch in the Praga district, and storied details around Lazienki park. We also stopped for yummy local snacks and beverages, and we ended back at our city apartment. It was a full, fascinating, and beautiful day with Lukasz.

  Lukasz has such a passion for his city, and it shows! If you want a wonderful, personable tour guide, Lucasz is your guy. I asked him all kinds of off-beat... read more questions, and he willingly answered all of them. Warsaw is an interesting city with a fascinating, tragic history. Lukasz does a fantastic job of giving you the general overview, but also pointing out secret places and small things you wouldn't have noticed or understood.
Worth every penny and then some! Love from Elisa and Tony, Copenhagen

  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.

  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.

  Łukasz is an excellent guide! He is easygoing, flexible and above all: he knows his stuff. Łukasz points out different objects, he tells short stories rather than summarising dull... read more facts and he shows hidden gems that you would otherwise pass by. Also, Praga is a district worth visiting, very nice vibe. Definitely recommend!

Frank Loyd Wright inspired house from 1935-1936, d Frank Loyd Wright inspired house from 1935-1936, designed by Bohdan Pniewski. It's located just right next to the Ministry of Defence, Belvedere Palace and Lazienki Royal Park. It's a duplex with a garden and rooftop terraces built for families of a lawyer and engineer from Warsaw. Interiors are decorated with Polish marbles and alabaster, and they have been preserved in the eastern unit. Lech Wałęsa used to live here for a while before he moved to the Belvedere Palace as the first President of Poland after the Fall of Communism. The designer Bohdan Pniewski was mostly known for his projects of state buildings such as the Polish Parliament, National Bank of Poland, and his biggest achievement which was the rebuilding and redesigning the Grand Theater and National Opera after the Second World War. . . . . . #pniewski #modernizm #architecturegram #architecturedaily #modernistdesign #instaarchitecture #igerswarsaw #polandphotos #insta_warsaw #nowawarszawa #discoverwarsaw #warsaw #poland

Such a waste of potential. Once it was a fancy apa Such a waste of potential. Once it was a fancy apartment house designed by a prominent architect Józef Napoleon Czerwiński. He died of heart attack watching his life's work turning to ashes during World War II. I know it from his great-grandson who wrote me an email a couple of years ago. It's one of the few surviving buildings on the former site of the Warsaw Ghetto, flattened by the Germans after the Ghetto Uprising in 1943. After the war the building was nationalized in accordance with policy of the Polish communist government. Since then it's been housing social apartments. Nobody has been taking care of it, but it's still occupied. This is what the residents see while entering their building. Even though it's neglected, these blue tiles are amazing💙💙💙 . . . . . #warsawpoland #walkingtour #warsawghetto #jewishhistory #citytour #localsonly #architecturegram #historicarchitecture #oldhouselove #deserve2preserve #archi_ologie #houses_phototrip #ig_europe #igerswarsaw #instawarszawa #warszawa_miasto
Incredibly green courtyard of the Szare Domy (The Incredibly green courtyard of the Szare Domy (The Grey Houses), a housing estate built in 1928-1932 according to the design of Jan Stefanowicz. The colony is a classic implementation of modernist functional architecture in Poland, inspired by De Stijl, a Dutch avant-garde movement. On black and white pictures from the 1930s and 1940s the buildings are already covered with plants, it's an old tradition of the colony. In 1992 it was inscribed in the Historic Monuments register of Warsaw.
