Another amazing tour guide recommended Kasia to us, for a trip from Warsaw to Ukraine, to do family research. Kasia did some research ahead of our visit to Warsaw, and then accompanied us to Ukraine/Lviv area so that my husband could see where his great-grandparents once lived. We had a beyond-amazing experience with Kasia and Tomek (driver). She made all of our arrangements (food - vegetarian, as well; rooms; driving/tour plan) and had a packet of information prepared for us. We were able to see the village where great-grandparents come from, and Kasia even found a person there who had married into the family/had a photo of them. We experienced this part of the world with so much information - and fun - with Kasia. I wish we could go back for more - just to hear more from her about history and the world! We recommend Kasia highly for any tour.

My family and were lucky to have found Kasia thanks to Trip adviser. We wanted a tailored tour to follow in the footstep of our father, who fought in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising. She went to extraordinary lengths in her research, and even managed to arrange for us to go down into the Crypt in St Martin's church where our father took refuge during the battle.
She was very professional - so much so that she is going t o do more research for us.

I contacted Kasia a few weeks before I planned a trip to Warsaw. She responded quickly, and gave me good information as far as where to stay as well as some information to help me further my research on my polish ancestors. Once I made my reservation I contacted her and scheduled a tour as well as asked her to help me with some genealogy research.
We met as soon as I arrived in Warsaw (she also contacted the hotel to see if they could check me in a little early). She had waiting for me a piece of paper I have been searching for for 2 years now (my grandmother since the 70s). To say the least she made the whole trip worth it within an hour of me arriving. I would not have been able to find the records on my own and is due to her great knowledge on the history of Poland. I simply provided her with what I knew and had records wise, and she found them. I still owe her a lot and I can’t thank her enough for taking the time to do that for me. She also went a step further and found my 2nd GGF birth records which confirmed a lot. Once I plugged those two records in my cousins tree who lives in Poland, she took it even further and found more information. So thankful for meeting Kasia. She also gave me a great tour of the Posin Museum and the Jewish cemetery. I didn’t know much about the history of the Jews especially in Poland. It was an amazing museum and her knowledge about everything was very impressive. Also, Warsaw/Old Town was amazing and very beautiful. Old Town is just a great atmosphere and nothing like in America. I definitely recommend a trip to Warsaw and definitely schedule a tour with Kasia.

My 23 year old son and I hired Kasia to give us a private tour in Warsaw last month. She is an exceptional tour guide having detailed knowledge historically and politically. We were both very impressed with her and would highly recommend her as a tour guide in Warsaw. She even took it upon herself to research information about my fathers family which was from Pre- world war 2 Eastern Poland. A definite hi-light of our time in Warsaw.

Early in October 2018 I came with my wife for a Tour of Warsaw. We have hired Kasia well in advance, and asked her to provide a driver for our two days' city tour. The driver and Kasia were simply outstanding: accommodating, knowledgeable, polite and very flexible. We planned on one day of General Polish History and one day of the Jewish Heritage of Warsaw. The experience has exceeded our best expectations. They took care of all entry tickets and moved us along cleverly, so we could effectively use our limited time.

All skilled, informed guides are able to pour out volumes of historical data that I always wish I could remember later (even 5 minutes later). While these are impressive historical tours de forces that may make one a little more informed, they leave one essentially, unchanged. Rarely, however, one meets someone who does cause a change in oneself and, for me, Kasia did that. The instrument of this enlightenment was not Kasia's impressive historical and cultural knowledge of Jewish Warsaw and the Holocaust (which is impressive) but what she brought of herself to allow me to have a more restorative, helpful and healthy understanding of what happened then and is happening now.

Kasia is an outstanding guide and genealogist. She arranged travel for our family of 4 to Koch and Ostrowmazowiecka in search of family homes from before WWII. Kasia was just as excited to find them as we were, she is truly our "Sherlock Holmes". She researched and prepared a wonderful document of our family geneology and found maps of these towns from before WWII, demonstrating. extensive and expert work. We spent 1 1/2 days with Kasia. Her guiding us through these towns and Warsaw was excellent. The depth of her narrative demonstrated her knowledge and expertise of Poland.

My father and I were referred to Kasia by another amazing Warsaw tour guide (Pawel). Kasia accompanied us by train from Warsaw to Bialystok (birth place of my great-grandfather) and gave us an amazing afternoon of touring that I will never forget for the rest of my life. After our trip was complete, we hired Kasia to do some genealogy work for us. The results that she returned to us were incredibly detailed and her communication throughout the entire process was amazing. We look forward to the day that we can return to beautiful Poland and tour with Kasia again.

Three friends came to Warsaw for a cultural weekend. Kasia was the perfect guide; extremely knowledgeable and with great depth and understanding of her subject. She pitched it just right for us and fed our curiosity. Poland has a turbulent history and she explained it clearly and was well able to give us a balanced picture. She put up with our sense of humour which shows her patience and kindness. If you want to understand Warsaw properly, she is just the person.

I was told by a friend that Kasia was an excellent guide. Was he right. First of all her English is very good. She is more than knowledgeable about Polish history, world history, the Jewish history of Poland and of course Warsaw. She made excellent use of our time. We had a packed all day tour with Kasia and driver.
I had been to Warsaw several times but this was the firs for my wife. She made it interesting for both of us.

Hi, thank you for contacting me. TA blocked the possibility for guests to see our pages for an unknown reason. To contact me find a page under the same name on fcbk. Also please try to contact me in advance as I'm usually booked ahead of time. I usually take 1-2 days to respond during the high season as I'm always outside with the tourists.

Of course we can arrange this. Please write me at my fb page.
I don't know what happened to the trip advisor as all the links to my page disappeared and they do not allow us to use them while answering neither to give you my email address. Very strange but I have also a page on fb under the same name. You can contact me there.
Thank you!
Kasia
