Hello! My name is Jola. I live in Warsaw and I am fascinated with this place. That's why, some 20 years ago, I decided to study Warsaw history, architecture, culture, etc. to become a fully-qualified city guide. Some time ago, after years spent in international corporations, I gave it up and became a full-time tour guide. I've also engaged, as a volunteer, in documenting architectural details of old tenement houses in Warsaw and regular cleaning works on the historical Jewish cemetery. I love traveling, meeting new people, discovering different cultures and traditions. I am easy going and energetic person, passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience with other people. I always try to make my guests feel like they're spending time with a friend. I'm eager to share with you my passion for Warsaw. I'd like to tell you the story of the rich, elegant city which almost disappeared from the Earth during WW2, but then was reborn like the Phoenix , the city formed by the communists in accordance with their ideology, the city that changed completely its face after 1989. I'd like to follow with you the traces of Frederic Chopin, Maria Curie, Icchak Singer, admire beautiful royal residences: Wilanow and Lazienki, and visit the places perfect for taking a deep breath and relax. You may find inspiration for a tour in one of my descriptions. If you have your own suggestions, contact me directly - we together will work out the best plan based on your interests and expectations. I will be happy to host you in Warsaw as your personal tour guide. Come over and be my guest! * Warsaw tour guide - governmental license, 2003 * Tour leader - governmental license, 2005 * POLIN Museum of the History of the Polish Jews - licensed guide * Frideric Chopin museum - licensed guide * Certificates of English language knowledge Important: I'm fully VACCINATED against COVID-19.

This is the combination of the driving/walking tour plus visiting the biographical museum during the day and the chamber piano concert in the evening. You will see the places in the countryside and in Warsaw where Frederic was born, where he lived with his family, where he was educated, where he was giving his first concerts, and used to spend his free time. I will show you the church where his heart is buried. You will hear Chopin's music in his birthplace (if available) and directly on the streets from surprising multimedia benches. The day will be closed by a chamber piano concert, performed in a small, cozy room, in the intimate atmosphere loved by Frederic.
- Driving to Zelazowa Wola, where Chopin was born - Visiting the Museum dedicated to the great composer and the historical park with beautiful small architecture and several Chopin monuments - Visiting a unique 14th-century church in nearby Brochow where Chopin's parents got married and Frederic was baptized - Driving back to Warsaw, to Łazienki Park with the world-famous monument of the great composer - Lunch break (1 hour) - Chopin's Route around the historical city center, with palaces and churches, including the Saski Square, the Kazimierzowski Palace at Warsaw University campus, the Presidential Palace, and the Saint Cross Church where the composer's heart was buried - Chopin's museum, one of the most modern biographical museums in Europe, with more than 5000 exhibits related to his life and music (individually, with audio-guides) - Afternoon break (1 hour) - The concert of Chopin music performed in the building where young Frederic played the piano during a charity concert.
