Complete relaxation, peace and quiet, breathtaking views. Exploring the city from the water is something wonderful. Both monuments and wild nature. It's worth going on such a cruise. Very good organization. Experienced Captain with a sense of humor!!! On the ship, you can learn about the history of Warsaw with an audio guide. I recommend it from the bottom of my heart <3 !!!

There are no signs on the streets to knoe where the hop on hop off buses stop. Impossible to find the itinerary. Nobody could told me where to go or find the buses. Finally I gave up and made my oen tour. Its a shame and a lost of time and money.

I would like to request for a refund . As information was not provided correctly + we were at stop no 3 for almost 3 hours but no bus . We were there between 11.40 to 2.45 pm . But not once we see the bus at stop no 3. The Information on the website is limited. Instead of asking people to go other locations , they must come to stop 1 . To start tour . I feel it's more of a scam .as I haven't seen bus anywhere on the roads.

Nothing. The buses did not arrive on time at the designated bus stops and the whole experience was a disaster. Never again! Thank you Petros Pashiardis

The tour itself was ok, not a great quality, a lot of silence, not a lot of explanation ("Family Smith lived there" - no explanation who family Smith is). There was mist inside the bus for the first 1h, we had to wipe out the windows constantly to see something. Second hour was ok, so the bus should ust have been warmed before. But, most of all: You don't provide the exact spot where the bus is, and you provide the WRONG TIME! I wasted 1h30 - 30 minutes looking for the bus stop before calling customer support, and then, 1h waiting for the actual correct time when the bus should arrive. You should fix this ASAP, it's unacceptable. You provide a googlemap spot, which is wrong, how hard is it to say "11h15 at Emilii Plater / DWORZEC CENTRALNY 14"?? So, mediocre tour, and terrible service from you.

I liked the excursion and boat ride. I didn't like that we couldn't figure out for a long time where we could get on the bus until we found the starting point at the station. Where can I see all the stops on the website? We also didn't immediately figure out where to get on the boat and ran in at the last minute. It would have been nice to have some signage. Thanks for the combo excursion.

Very friendly driver 👍🏻 both red and blue routes went at a reasonable speed, so that we could see a lot of Warsaw and the bus returned to the stop on time. We are very satisfied, only the weather did not play along.

I have taken part on this tour several times when we have visitors to Warsaw. After a few stops we had to stop for 40minutes for driver break. Which of course is not a problem but when we started up again we were halted again after a few minutes by a protest march & could not progress for one hour. Surely the company knew about the march & could have combined this hold up with driver break?

Need to have a clearer indication of where to pick up bus after buying ticket online. Too long a period of time between drop offs and pick ups. Maybe you need more than one bus running route. Points of interest were good.
