Our walking tour was a lot of fun and Ewa answered all of our questions. She showed us a park we would not otherwise have seen and showed us a great view of old town. It is a lot of walking, but you get to see some unusual sites. We did stop for a coffee break, which was at a cute little cafe. We learned a lot of history about Poland as well. Great tour - would recommend!

I mostly don't write reviews, but I have to leave one here. I took this tour this past week with Antoni (owner) from Walking Poland. I thought after living in Poland for over a year, I will know all about the royal route area, but it really wasn’t the case. Antoni proved me, there was more about that part of the city history, I didn’t know. I’m happy I took this tour and that they didn't cancel on me when I was the only one that actually booked that day, after all I didn’t take the private version of this tour. It was worth the 12 dollars and more.

We took this private tour to visit Chopin’s birthplace and the church where he was baptized. It was our first time there and since none of us speak Polish, this tour really made the visit easy (seems to me the easiest way to visit the church especially). Our guide Konrad was so kind and efficient, full of hospitality. We got to learn so much because of his presence, but he also left us some time alone to stroll the site on our own, which was really nice. We also appreciate the very efficient tour organization, which made our wish come true, to attend the special concert which took place at the birthplace on that day. We are so satisfied with this tour and grateful to Konrad and Chopin Pass team for this memorable visit. Certainly recommended !!
