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

We’ll explore the area that once formed the heart of Jewish Warsaw, walking streets layered with history and memory. We’ll visit the still-active Nożyk Synagogue, the only surviving prewar synagogue in the city, and discover the stories of everyday residents who shaped a community that once made up nearly one-third of Warsaw’s population. We’ll then trace the boundaries of the former Warsaw Ghetto during the Nazi occupation, visiting key memorial sites including the Warsaw Ghetto Wall and the Umschlagplatz, from where most ghetto residents were deported. Our journey also includes the Ghetto Heroes Monument next to POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, placing the Holocaust within the broader story of a thousand years of Jewish life in Poland. A well-known American historian once said that here he felt “the presence of the absence, and the absence of the present.” In this tour, we’ll explore exactly what he meant.
- Nozyk Synagoge - Grzybowski Square - Ghetto crossing-bridge memorial - Umschlag platz -The Bunker of Mordechai Anielewicz at Mila 18 - The Ghetto Uprising memorial And plenty more!
