Cruise passengers

In Gdańsk for the day from a cruise ship?

Your ship won’t wait — so we plan the whole day around it. We agree a clear meeting point, build the tour around your arrival and all-aboard times, and make sure you head back with plenty of time to spare.

  • Local guide who knows how long everything really takes
  • Return-to-ship planning — the latest return time is agreed before we start
  • Private and flexible — no coach, no crowd, no fixed script

Why travel with a local

A private guide, not a group tour

Big group tours show you the same five photo stops. A private local guide shows you the city — at your pace, around your questions.

  1. 01

    Private

    Your group only — never a crowd of forty following an umbrella.

  2. 02

    Local

    A guide who lives in Gdańsk, not a script. Ask anything, from history to where to eat tonight.

  3. 03

    Flexible

    The plan is a starting point. Slow down, skip, add a museum, stop for coffee.

  4. 04

    Personal

    Stories chosen for you — families, history buffs, photographers and first-timers get different tours.

Hi, I’m your guide.

Your local guide in Gdańsk

My tours are private, relaxed and built around what you want to see — history, architecture, food, or simply a good walk through Gdańsk with someone who knows it from the inside.

More about your guide

Gdańsk beyond the postcard

One city, four chapters

01

The Hanseatic city

For centuries Gdańsk was one of the richest ports on the Baltic, trading Polish grain to Western Europe. Its merchants built the tall, narrow houses of the Main Town and the vast brick church of St Mary’s.

Old Town tour
02

The Free City

Between the wars Gdańsk was the Free City of Danzig — neither fully German nor Polish. On 1 September 1939 the Second World War began here, at Westerplatte and the Polish Post Office.

WWII tour
03

Ruin and rebirth

In 1945 much of the historic centre lay in ruins. What you walk through today is one of Europe’s most remarkable post-war reconstructions — and knowing that changes how you see it.

04

Solidarity

In August 1980 a strike at the Gdańsk Shipyard gave birth to Solidarity, the movement that helped end communism in Central Europe.

Questions, answered

All questions

Are your tours private?

Yes. Every tour is private: your guide, your group, your pace. You will never be added to a group of strangers.

How much does a private tour cost?

Private tours start at €150 (650 zł) for up to 3 hours. Each additional hour is €35 (150 zł). The price is for your whole private group, not per person. Museum tickets and food are paid separately.

Do you provide transportation?

No — our tours are walking tours of Gdańsk. Where it makes sense (for example to Westerplatte) we travel together by public transport or seasonal boat.

Do you offer tours for cruise passengers?

Yes. We plan private shore excursions around your ship’s arrival and departure times, agree a clear meeting point and make sure you head back with plenty of time to spare.

Can you customize a tour?

Always. Every tour can be shortened, extended or combined. Tell us what interests you, how much time you have and who you are travelling with, and we will suggest an itinerary.

What languages do your guides speak?

Tours are available in English and Polish.

How do I book?

Call or message the guide directly — WhatsApp, text or phone — with your date, number of guests and interests. The tour planner on this site can write that message for you. You get a personal reply with availability and a price; there is no online booking or payment.

Looking for something different?

Tell us what you’d like to see, how much time you have and who you’re travelling with. We’ll build the tour around you — families, photographers, history lovers and returning visitors welcome.
