Warsaw Ghetto Walking Tour

5.00Great tour with Marzena! She had lots of information for us and explained the manipulation of the Jews through the very detailed plans of the Nazis - (Himmler). We walked through many of the historical areas of the Warsaw ghetto and felt we understood much more by the time our tour was over. Marezena had maps and photos which helped us see where we were and who some of the main characters were. Walked at an easy pace, especially as it was during the heat wave. Highly recommend.
Historical, sociological and walking tour — not to be missed

5.00Our guide, Marzena, was amazing — both in showing us the Jewish ghetto with all its current historical markers and its lone remaining synagogue and in describing the history of Jews in Warsaw. A tour not to be missed.

5.00This tour was an extremely thorough, educational and impactful tour of the Warsaw ghetto. Our guide was knowledgeable and thoughtful and gave meaningful and important context to the history of the ghetto and World War II as a whole. She pointed out and explained important landmarks of the ghetto. She also had a binder with pictures, maps and information to reference at different stops of the tour. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Warsaw!

5.00Our guide Marzena was outstanding. She was very knowledgable and was able to provide us with lots of information about the history of Jews in Warsaw, the creation of the ghetto and the Nazi occupation and final solution. We were taken around what was the ghetto which was an area of approx 2 miles. I can’t recommend this tour enough if you want to know more about the treatment of Jews in Warsw right before WWII and during it.
