Communism Tour of Warsaw

This tour allows you to explore Warsaw much deeper and visit the best preserved Communist sites in Warsaw. Our professional, private guide can meet you at your hotel in Warsaw and take you for an approx 4 hours tour.

Our guide will show you also Dom Partii building (the Party’s House) and the first modern shopping center from the 50’s. Moreover, we will visit the symbol of communist era in Poland: the Palace of Culture and Science – in the past known as the Joseph Stalin Palace of Culture and Science.
