Hello and Welcome! I'm Elad, a passionate guide, trained historian and enthusiast storyteller based in Poland. Whether it’s your first visit or a return journey, Poland has a unique way of touching people: through its deep history, vibrant culture, and the powerful stories woven into the streets of cities like Krakow and Warsaw. With a degree in European and Jewish History from Tel Aviv University, and years of exploring these two remarkable cities, I’ve created tours that offer something truly special: a meaningful look into the rich Polish and Jewish heritage alongside the broader cultural, architectural, and culinary life of this unique city. We’ll uncover hidden corners of the old city and Jewish Quarter in Krakow, walk the grand boulevards of Warsaw and its reconstructed old town and royal palace, hear the stories behind centuries-old buildings, and the people behind the stories which created and shaped Poland until this very day. Whether you're here to connect with family roots, explore history, or simply experience something new and real—my tours are designed to move at your pace, with depth, curiosity, and plenty of humor and fun along the way. I will also make sure you have all the tips you need for the rest of your stay, to help make it as enjoyable and memorable as possible Looking forward to welcoming you to Poland, Elad

Overview of your Warsaw tour

To truly understand Poland and its deep history, culture, and spirit- you need to walk the streets of both Krakow and Warsaw. In Krakow, we’ll explore the city of kings, cobblestone lanes, and centuries-old Jewish quarter, spared from destruction, yet shaped by loss and memory. In Warsaw, we’ll witness a city rebuilt from ashes, where every square and street tells a story of war, resistance, and bold revival. From medieval charm to communist blocks, from royal castles to modern cafés, these two cities tell one powerful story of survival, identity, and change. Together, these two tours offer a fuller picture of Poland: Krakow shows what was preserved, Warsaw shows what was rebuilt- and both reveal the heart of a nation that never gave up. Come walk with me through time, through stories, and through two unforgettable cities.
