“Great tour, really fun. Guide was good, great bar and choice of drinks. Was lovely to have the live singer on board for the way back to sing Polish Sea Shanty songs. We didn't realise that we couldn't get off in Westerplatte as we were on the last boat of the day, which was a shame, but still a very enjoyable experience.”

We never felt rushed even though we started at 6pm and had the full three hours. We have used GYG many times and this was one of the best we have done. A great engaging guide.”

“We took a 3 hour tour with Joanna who was able to customise the tour to suit our interests in the Hanseatic league and time of the Teutonic knights. She included this information whilst giving us a full history and showing us around most of historic Gdansk. Her knowledge and willingness to answer questions was faultless and her insights exceptional. The time passed in a flash but we were left with a great understanding of the city (and more broadly Poland) and plans for the days to come, which have been working out well. Highly recommended.”
