About the event
Warsaw in a Nutshell — a tour with Ogórek around Warsaw
📅 Every Saturday
⏰ 15:00
📍 Start: Palace of Culture and Science
Yes, we know — the word “nutshell” (pigułka) can evoke different associations. Don’t worry: ours works instantly and without side effects (unless you count falling head over heels for Warsaw!). Hop into the iconic Jelcz “Ogórek” and set off on a capital city trip that doesn’t last forever but stays in your mind for a long time. It’s a great option for busy, rushed, spontaneous people and those who want more than boring guidebook facts. You will learn, among other things:
- whether Zygmunt ever splashed in the fountain
- where the crosses on Three Crosses Square came from
- why Łazienki has so much to do with… a bathroom
- who moved buildings in Warsaw like LEGO blocks
- and why Praga is Praga, and not e.g. Ząbki
All of this is spiced up by the voice of a guide who tells stories about the city so that even the Palace of Culture pricks up its ears. We’ll also stop for a hot chocolate tasting, there will be walks and a full 2.5 hours of seeing Warsaw in a unique way. Bring friends and hop aboard Ogórek!
