“We took the tour with Marie (?) I’m so bad remembering names. I’ve been on many food tours across 3 continents. This was by far my favorite. Yes, old town Warsaw is gorgeous, and Polish cuisine is fantastic. The true beauty of this tour was the guide. She brought food with her to the meeting point, and gave us extra goodies along the way. But she gave us a breathtaking account of the history of Warsaw, including her own and her amazing families’ history there. And she was a delight to be with as well. Thank you so much Marie if this review finds its way to you.”
