Maggie was very patient and waited more than 2 hours for our tour, my own family would not wait for me this long! She was kind and understanding - and gave a terrific tour. We toured during COVID and although everything was closed, she was able to fill more than 3 hours with facts and fun. She knows details about architecture and history that keeps everyone interested. Her English is great and we highly recommend her!
Michael B.United States
Maggie is a great guide. She is very knowledgeable about the history, politics and geography of Poland and Gdansk in particular. I would definitely ask for her to guide me again if I return to the area.
Catherine R.Canada
Maggie is a wonderful lady who take care of her clients so well. She is very knowledgeable and makes sure everyone understands the history of this area,the old and the new. She was on time, and ready for our group to learn all about Gdansk. Made sure we were comfortable with all that we did. We couldn't ask for anything better. We spent a wonderful day with Maggie and would recommend her highly. Driver was excellent also. If in Gdansk get in touch with her, you will not be disappointed.
