Sebastian has strong knowledge of the impact from WWII and socialism on today’s Warsaw as well as arts and architecture. Fun facts and details were a plus during the walk. Highly recommend Sebastian

I heard about With Locals on the Internet. I reached out to Mona and it was one of the best things we could have done. Mona customized a day tour of Warsaw based on what we asked. We had the best time with Mona. Not only is she very knowledgeable about Warsaw you can tell she loves what she does. I would highly recommend Mona for any of your tour needs. When I come back I certainly will contact her again. Celia & Vicki

Marcin was very kind, genuine and created an unforgettable experience of Warsaw for us. We are very thankful for his combination of facts and his own personal stories about the past and present.

Marcin Withlocals was a great guide and showed us the hidden gems of busy Warsaw. Every street & building had a story & he narrated it so well. Thank you for the perfect blend of culture, history, and fun on the city tour. It was an enlightening and enjoyable experience.

We were a tour group of eight people from Berlin and Marcin guided us through Warsaw for three exciting hours. As he described in his portrait, he really showed us the gems of sights that are a little off the beaten track. Places that we would certainly not have visited ourselves. The tour of the former Warsaw ghetto was also very impressive. All in all, the tour with Marcin is highly recommended! And: we all became Warsaw fans, a great city. Thank you Marcin and all the best!

Four of us had a wonderful tour of Warsaw yesterday with Whit as our local guide. Whit was an excellent guide with great knowledge of Warsaw but also European history, wars etc and how these affected Poland and Warsaw in particular. Whit has an easy relaxed style and tailored everything, pace and information, to suit us. I would highly recommend Whit as a Warsaw guide.

Marcin makes learning the I love tours that educate me about the history of a city but also gives me an understanding of the current situation. Marcin is an excellent guide and left me with his love of his city and country. This was my second tour with Marcin and he is great about communicating before tour too

I knew nothing about Warsaw. If I leave a walking tour feeling like I have more knowledge or a feel for the people, I give the highest stars available. But it really has to be earned - I don't give them if not earned. Marcin has a very personable way of sharing.

When our bus tour got canceled 30 minutes before our pickup ( yes warsaw city tours, that’s me throwing shade) we didn’t know what to do. With only about 2 hours notice I booked a tour with Whit and he totally saved the day. My daughter and I had so much fun with Whit. He’s an excellent guide who is very entertaining and all around fabulous. We got an excellent tour of the city and great tips for local shopping and travel.

Had a great time with the city tour, via the Soviet Era van! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and made the trip fun, despite some rain along the way!

We had a fantastic trip with Mona as our tour guide! She adjusted the tour to our needs (with two kids 9yrs old and 4yrs old). She was very prepared, extremely knowledgeable and very engaging! I was worried about taking this tour with kids, but it turned out to be the best experience we had during our visit! Strongly recommend!!!

A friendly, informative and in-depth view of the history of Warsaw, taking in the the very modern and the not so modern at street level. The kind of tours I prefer, walking around from street to street reeling in the local history, all the nooks and crannies, the side streets and the hidden but important stories that one not might get otherwise. Noticing how Warsaw is a city where the very modern (high rise skyscrapers) lie side by side the very old (old apartment blocks of the 60s and 70s) and the even older (remnants of buildings from the war period) Marcin's tour was relaxed, with lots of good information and facts about sites and areas of historical significance...... from the the time the Rolling Stones played in Soviet Warsaw, the street history of the Warsaw uprising, and a look at the some of the remains of the Warsaw Ghetto, amongst a raft of things to see and experience. Afterwards, we had some local dishes, where we sampled the best of Polish cuisine - yes, and that includes pirogi! ha Recommended if one wants a more personal and grounded view of the real history of the magnificent city of Warsaw.

Our guide was wonderfully nice but we got just a 3 hour walk around town. I didn’t leave with any hidden gem information, stories, or really an added appreciation for Warsaw. Maybe it was a translation issue but the “walk” seemed unprepared and I left feeling underwhelmed. We tried to dig into more stories but our questions were mostly answered with, “I’m not sure.” Great walk but I would have learned more paying for data and using wiki. We also didn’t receive our local treat/food item per the ad. Again, as I’ve found with all locals, wonderful people, but for $50ish/person just walk around with access to google and go at your own pace.

I booked this tour as a source to find out more about Warsaw, see its alternative sides, here stories and local anecdotes. At first, I was not sure if our guide feels comfortable speaking in English. Secondly, to 96% of our questions, the answer was "I don't know". And the questions weren't hard. Like "what is in the building You are telling us now?", "why is Your mentioned character a hero?", "Who is painted in the murial You are showing us?". During the 3 hours spent together, walking large distances, the guide was not as a guide, but as a person who just walks along with us quietly. The information he told, was less that we had read preparing for our trip. Mostly we didn't understand where we are going and why.. If the description mentions "Discover why the Monument of Soldiers of the Kosciuszko Division is sarcastically called the "5 beers, please" monument" - we didn't find this out. "Do as the locals do, hop on a tram and munch on a tasty Polish "donut." - no tram, no donut, no sense of a local with us..

Martin was a fantastic guide, very personable and knowledgeable. He showed us places in Warsaw that we would not have seen on our own. Only the 2 of us were on the tour which made it even better. Highly recommend this experience!
