This tour is also available as
a Private Tour.
There is Warsaw you know. The Old Town, the modern centre, rich shops, and restaurants. But there is also another side. Neglected, dark, and forbidden. Are you ready to play Alice in Wonderland and adventure into the unknown? Let us take you to Praga, the thrilling right bank district of Warsaw.
For many years, the other side of the river was a separate city. Some would say the two sides of Warsaw are still completely different worlds. The architecture of Praga stands out from the rest of the city as it was mostly unharmed during the Second World War. For decades it was considered a no-go zone in Warsaw. Today, things have changed.
With our guides, you will see the multicultural and alternative Praga. Catholic, Orthodox, and Jewish places of worship standing next to each other, dilapidated buildings and backyards, street art, and street trade. The so-called “Hollywood ghetto”, an area so run down that it could be used as a set in a Holocaust movie almost with no scenography. The only wild bank of a big European river, the bears (yes, bears), and much, much more! Are you ready to follow the white rabbit?
During this tour you will see:
· the infamous Praga district
· architecture that survived WWII
· courtyard shrines and places of worship
· the heart of Old Praga

The explanation of the tour is much more exciting than the tour. There was nothing alternative about the tour. We where told stories about, jews, Nazis train stations and vodka. We saw the old Bazar or at least the entrance of it. Madonna statues. A shopping mall and its train station. We did not see anything alternative, something you could not read about or not easily find yourself. We saw the typical tourist things. The guide did his best but the tour was not at all what we expected after reading the description. And it is not pay what you can. They expect you to pay something, we are not sure how much but the quide rudely did not accept our 110 slots and coins. He told us to keep our money!!! That is so rude!!!
