A very comprehensive 3 hour private walking tour led by Olga. She took us to the main sights in Gdansk and we ended up at the Solidarity Museum.

wow - I could not fault this tour . Łukasz R - contacted me directly to find out exactly what we wanted . The tour was a great mix of history and stories about the town - we were able to see all the old town best bits ( it was a great way to explore the city ) My eldest son even stated ' Mum this is the best tour we've done ' and that is fare praise !

Our tour with Łukasz was fantastic! As you would expect with any tour guide, he was extremely knowledgeable about the various landmarks and buildings we visited in Gdansk. However, what made the tour so great was his outgoing nature. He was incredibly engaging, especially with our children, and did a wonderful job of making them active participants in the story telling during the tour. Thank you again, Łukasz! We truly enjoyed spending time with you during our visit to Gdansk!

Łukasz was very knowledgeable and informed. I learned things that the guide books did not. He was pleasant to be with and answered our questions fully. He worked off of our hotel location and explained he so much along the way. My wife and I were the only ones on the tour and we loved it. I would never go with a large group again.
