Discover BEST OF WARSAW by bike
3
This 4 hrs cycling PERSONAL tour is an unique private one. Why is it so unique ? Most of tourists that I meet, spend 2-3 nights in Warsaw and don't have much time to learn more about city. My way of presenting Warsaw gives you a very comprehensive view of the city and let you replace 2 days of traditional walking and bus tours which are limited in time and area.
During my tour I will show you the highlights of Warsaw but most of all - the unknown, unique spots where most of the tourists don't go. Expect - during the tour - about 20 stops with guide's stories and short break for snack or coffee.
Distance of the tour 18 km, flat terrain.
