Description
This tour is a choice for those primarily interested in the history of World War II. Tyranny, resistance and gore would be the most appropriate words to describe that part of Polish history. From the remains of the street fights and two insurrections to Warsaw’s so-called 'liberation' by the Soviets in 1945. You'll learn about the battles, heroes and everyday life in Warsaw during the Nazi occupation, the political situation in the region that has changed diametrically throughout coupe years of WWII and the consequences that war has brought to Poland and Europe. Find buildings that may be considered war memorials due to the bullet holes and ricochets, pieces of the Jewish Ghetto wall, and hidden hills of rubble. Travel through time thanks to stories you'll hear, combined with archival photographs and our Zuk retro vintage minibus.
Includes
Pickup and drop-off within 3 km radius of city center
