Gdańsk Highlights

by coach & on foot

This experience is designed to show you the highlights of Gdańsk with a guided walk around the charming Old Town followed by some free time to explore at leisure. The city’s 1,000 years of history have left a rich collection of buildings and monuments designed in a splendid mix of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles for visitors to explore.

Departing from the port by coach, an approximately 30-minute drive will bring you to the Old Town of Gdańsk. Here you will continue on foot as your guide leads you on a walk through the city to admire some of the Old Town’s highlights.

Your walk will follow the Royal Route from the Green Gate on the banks of Motlawa, which takes in Long Street and Long Market with its town houses spanning 400 years, the Main Town Hall, Arthur’s Court and the representative symbol of Gdańsk – The Neptune Fountain.

Following this, make your way with your guide to visit St. Mary’s Church, known as the ‘Crown of Gdańsk’. The largest brick temple in the world took 159 years to build and has 30 decorated chapels, ancient tombs and a 15th century astronomical clock. It can accommodate up to 25,000 worshippers at one time and with its bright, spacious interior and large windows it creates a magical atmosphere.

After your guided walk you will have approximately 1h15min of free time to explore on your own, where you can sit down in a local cafe or do some shopping before meeting back at the advised location for the return journey to the port.
