Gdansk is the principal seaport of Poland on the coast of the Baltic Sea. Gliding through the shipyard towards Old Town during the golden hour is an ideal way to soak in the sights of this city.

Explore Gdansk Shipyard

Discover the Gdansk shipyard that was inaccessible to visitors for over 170 years. Built on the site of former German shipyards, the Gdansk shipyard was once the workplace of about 18,000 people. Get the opportunity to see port cranes, the quay of the Port of Gdansk, and specialized ships up close.

Ride on a Traditional Galar Boat

Embark on an intimate cruise aboard the replica of the 18th-century Polish boat, Galar. Enjoy the English and Polish-speaking guide's personalized attention as you explore Gdansk from the waters of the Motlawa River and reach places inaccessible to larger vessels.

Discover Gdansk from Water at Sunset

Admire Gdansk in the sunset glow from the water and learn about the rich past of its monuments from your guide. Unwind as you sail along the Motława River, passing by the Old Town. See the grounds of a former Teutonic castle that the people of Gdansk dismantled, disobeying the Teutonic Order. Catch sight of the Long Embankment with grand water gates leading into the city. See the charming facades of Flemish-style tenement houses with gabled roofs. Discover monuments and new buildings on the banks of Ołowianka and the Granary Islands.
