The Experience

Your driver picks you up from your hotel or apartment and takes you directly to Wilanow Royal Palace, the former residence of King Jan III Sobieski. The palace originated in 1677 and expanded over time into a work of art surrounded by gardens, sculptures and monuments. Inside, the collections trace the interests and customs of its former residents alongside artworks gathered across generations. The audio-guide is available in Polish, English, German, Russian, French, Italian or Spanish, and you move through the rooms at your own pace. In winter the palace hosts mapping projections on its buildings; in summer, concerts and temporary exhibitions run alongside the permanent collection.

After Wilanow, your driver takes you to POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews. The museum documents how Poles and Jews lived together for centuries and how both cultures merged. Multimedia exhibitions show family and neighborly relations, Jewish-Christian relationships, and the contribution of Jews to Polish culture, economy and science. A virtual library holds Hebrew and Yiddish literature in multimedia form—Talmud, religious and philosophical works—and visitors can print a title page from a 16th-century book on a working press. The audio-guide here comes in English, Belarusian, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish and Yiddish. Your driver then returns you to your hotel or another location in Warsaw you specify.

The tour runs about four hours total. Groups stay between 2 and 6 people, so you have a dedicated driver and coordinator for the whole day. The vehicle is yours alone—no other clients ride along. All areas of both sites are wheelchair accessible, and the transport itself is wheelchair accessible; specialized infant seats are available if you need them.
