“It was an amazing tour with Marcin! A great introduction to warsaw and to learn about the places you might be interested in exploring even further afterwards. I was lucky to have had good weather. Cycling on cobblestones is new to me but it was alright, there were a bit of hilly paths that we went on but nothing too difficult for those used to cycling. The duration was just right, there is a 30min break in between. I would highly recommend :)”
