A "must do" in Gdansk - so much history to uncover - Thank you Tufi for sharing Gdansk with us. It was great to have a guide who is so passionate about his home town. A cheap Ryanair flight may have got us here but we are loving the feel of Gdansk and appreciating both it's history and it's architecture.
Recommend getting on one of these tours near to the start of your stay to make sense of the main & old city as well as the importance of the river & docks. Tufi pointed out lots of details and shared stories that enriched our time around the city.
Very moving to end the tour at the Polish Post Office of Free Gdansk and hear of those who died there in 1939.
This is a pay as you wish tour - don't pre-pay on any other websites rather give the money directly to your tour guide at the end.

Dynamite tour - Kate lead an amazing tour through the streets of Gdansk. The pace of the tour was great and Kate was very considerate of the group offering a break midway through and could always find cosy areas for us to stop to be in the sunshine . Would recommend this very much helped me find my way around.

Excellent walking tour - This was an excellent walking tour. Our guide ZOSIA was amazing, very interesting and although the tour is 2.5 hours, it flew by. ZOSIA was an extremely good guide, she was happy to answer questions and she's very friendly and informative.
I would definitely recommend Walkative to others.

A five star Guided walk in beautiful, historic Gdansk - A magical five-star tour of Gdańsk—made unforgettable in the snow! Our guide Kasia was exceptional: knowledgeable, engaging, and wonderfully enthusiastic despite the cold. She brought Gdańsk’s rich history to life with fascinating stories, clear explanations, and thoughtful details we never would have noticed on our own.
Navigating snowy streets and quieter winter corners, the tour felt intimate and immersive rather than rushed. Kasia was attentive, friendly, and happy to answer questions, making sure everyone was comfortable and involved. Exploring Gdańsk in the snow could not have been more magical, and this guide played a huge role in that experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a deeper, more authentic understanding of the city, whatever the weather.
