My name is Tomek and I have been a tour guide as well as cultural and Polish language coach for about ten years now. Born and bred in Warsaw, I have a deep passion for Polish culture, history and heritage, and I also know my home city inside out. Yes, definitely every district and almost every street. I specialize in "reality tours" showing mainly places off the beaten track and indulging travellers in real Warsaw ambience. I work with single travelers, couples, families, the elderly and the disabled. I can accommodate Warsaw visitors on any budget, and I am able to do day, evening or night tours on any day of the week. Leisure or business, rain or shine! You can be driven in my car or in a hired van, we can have a bicycle or scooter ride, take public transport or walk. I also possess international traveling experience having visited more than 50 countries on most continents, and I do know what travelers look for and what types of places they like sightseeing. School- visits, meeting locals, visiting local bars and markets, cooking tours and courses are just a few I can include on your tour list. Alternatively, please let me know of any special requests you have. Then I will be able to customize the trip according to your interests. Hope to see you in Poland! Tomek I have a university degree in English Literature obtained in 2003, QTS for England and Wales no. 1742174, First Aid Licence and I have also completed a course for Organisers and Leaders of School Trips. I am not able to guide you inside of some historical monuments.

We were pleased to have this option of an evening tour of Warsaw as we arrived in the late afternoon by train. Tomek was engaging and knowledgable in all things Warsaw, and took us by car and by foot to various places in the city. By the end of it, we knew where we would want to return the next day to visit in daylight. (The Palace of Culture and Science, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier) We wanted a general tour, but Tomek is amenable to customizing the tour, depending on what the traveler wants.

I so enjoyed this tour with Tomek! He planned it according to my interests but was flexible throughout the tour. I learned so much about Warsaw! Besides answering all my questions readily and fully, he prevented me more than once from stepping into a street on a red light while I was looking around in wonder. I would definitely go with Tomek on future tours! Thank you, Tomek!

I recommend this tour with Tomek. It was my first day in Warsaw and it provided a great overview of the city. I enjoyed the tour very much, and especially appreciated that Tomek could tailor the tour to my interest. Tomek has a car and that was very helpful. The communication was excellent.
