Niche tourists to the countries of the former Soviet Union treat the daily life of the local inhabitants as a tourist attraction. The article attempts to interpret this interest through the lens of sociological and anthropological theories of alternative tourism. Perceiving daily life as a tourist attraction is, on the one hand, an outcome of the formation process of Poland’s new middle class. This group adheres to post-material values, but also desires to be different from the masses. In this sense Polish niche tourists to the countries of the former Soviet Union are similar to other western alternative tourists. However, their interest in the daily life of the local inhabitants of these countries contains the experience of ‘hot’ authenticity produced by, among other things, the mode of travel and also by historical memory, which the tourists and the locals partially share.
