    Marta was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout the tour. Her energy made the experience highly engaging as we learned about Gdansk. The blend of medieval history, contemporary history, and everything in between made this a great way to see the city, especially if you have limited time.

    The best private tour in Gdansk

    Sonja_P, Sep 2024
    Lukasz was amazing from start to finish. He asked us about what we wanted to do and planned accordingly. Highly knowledgeable and also great to chat with about Polish culture generally. We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with him. Great anecdotes. He looked after us incredibly well.

    The PERFECT tour and guide for your time in G’dansk!

    Krissy_A, Apr 2024
    Łukasz was amazing, the perfect host and tour guide for our time in G’dansk! So glad we did this private tour, his knowledge, stories, and even patience with me taking a million photos was truly perfect. Really got a great overview of the city, main town (as some say old town, but you’ll learn the real old town), and history. He answered all the questions we had and then some. For sure treat yourself to this wonderful experience. We even changed train tickets to stay another day after falling in love with the town to explore more. Thank you Łukasz!!
