Just so People know it was only a small taxi with 6 of us in which I was a little unsure of at the beginning but we all soon got to know each other and all had a great day. I had also heard a rumour that the thermal baths were all naked - but this was not the case - which was a big relief to me . I would thoroughly recommend the trip.”

“Main pools totally rammed with people, not a single lounger free and every tiny space filled to capacity. We paid extra & went to over 16's sauna area which was bit better but had a bunch of rules that nobody explained including being naked in all sauna/steam rooms... slight swinger feel to it with a 10/1 male to female ratio which left us both feeling uncomfortable. If you are expecting natural thermal springs (as we were), or anything like the photos its not. Its Centre Parks with a gazillion people jammed inside.. had we read the reviews we would have NEVER booked this as it seems this ridiculous level of…”

“We have been a big fan of Viator tour and have taken many food tours when I go to a new city. This was very disappointing this is the same guide that continues to get bad reviews. I’m not sure why I have somebody who is not Polish , has only lived in the country a short time doing something that would be so personal about their city. Additionally the value was absurd. We spent US$190 for two people and I think the total cost for food for the three restaurants was probably under $20. The service at the restaurant was also poor because they didn’t see us as actual…”

“Embarking on a food tour in Warsaw's genuine Polish restaurants proved to be a culinary delight. Our taste buds savored the delicious nuances of Polish cuisine, from the perfect pairing of potato pancake with pork goulash to the exquisite steamed and fried dumplings, generously filled with cabbage and mushroom. The dish featuring cabbage leaves stuffed with rice and meat in tomato sauce provided a comforting and flavorsome experience. However, the true crescendo came with the liqueurs at the end, leaving a lasting impression. Our guide, Cezary, elevated the experience with a wealth of knowledge about intriguing locales and the rich history of Poland. Highly recommended for a captivating blen...”
