We are Antoni and Tomasz, but everyone calls us Antek and Tomek! We are professional, licensed city guides and many years ago we decided to forge our own path as tour guides. Before that, we gathered experience in countless travel companies, and now we want to share that experience with you.
The tours we offer are our own creations with a very personal touch. We both live on the right side of Warsaw, in the Praga district, and we work daily on the left side, where we will soon meet you in person.
We earn our daily bread on the streets, where we also get our stories and tales. So, prepare yourself for a truly local tour with real Varsovians.

Tour description
This tour is not a "standard route" for us – it is something very personal.
We are Antek, Tomek & Friends, a small, local group of licensed city guides from Warsaw. We live and work in the neighborhoods through which we walk on this tour. We not only know the facts but also the stories that linger on houses, courtyards, and street corners – and we tell them in a way that can only be done when you have a genuine relationship with the city. You can see the result on our tour Old Town & More with Antek and Friends, which receives many positive reviews.
On this moving walk, we take you through Jewish Warsaw – from the centuries-old Jewish life in the city to the tragic events in the ghetto during World War II. It's about everyday life, loss, courage, and resistance. And about people: well-known names like Janusz Korczak or Menahem Begin-
What you see on the tour
We start in front of the All Saints Church on Plac Grzybowski, a place where you can still feel Warsaw's Jewish heritage. From there, we go to the (last) Nożyk Synagogue in the city and continue to visible traces of the former ghetto: the longest piece of ghetto wall in Walicow, Museum of the Warsaw Ghetto (Exterior), Haberbusch Brewery, up to Hala Mirowska.
If you are looking for an honest, respectful, and very human encounter with the history of this city – then you are in the right place with us.
