What To Expect
Feel the vibe of a former Polish communist state on this 3 hours private tour with our guide and retro minibus. Stories about the black market, an idea of a garden city of Warsaw and new communist ideology combined with proper context and communist car will bring these past days back to life.
Guide collects you for the hotel with a unique retro minibus called Żuk (the beetle). Ten miles per gallon, wooden floor and produced in communist Poland – all that adds a meaningful piece of reality to your experience. Each stop represents different parts of communist Poland’s history - from the dusk of WWII and post-war reconstruction of Warsaw through the rough ‘60s and ‘70s to the first free elections on the 4th of June 1989. Disclose the secrets of communist Poland, learn how people managed to survive in the central-steered economy and find relics from those days in Warsaw.
Palace of Culture and Science, Constitution sq, former Communist Party HQ and more red stars are on the list.

Meeting Point
If your pickup location is not present in the selection box, please send the address to the tour operator. Please note that transfer from and to the hotel counts into the tour's total time. Therefore, sometimes it is better to meet the guide in the city centre, rather than spend the time transferring from the far-located hotel.
