★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 2,913 reviews · 1h 10m · from $22Our pick

Set out from Gdańsk Shipyard on a 12-seat wooden replica boat with an English or Polish guide.

Guides such as Borna, Szymon, and Danusia bring the past to life.

“This was such a fun activity. First, the meeting spot is such a random and out of the blue location, made it seem more…exciting? Second, there was a delay to the start of our trip but we were kept informed and checked in on. Third, it was fun and I learned a good bit about the city from a super nice guide. Thank you!”
