Tour Itinerary
Fly to Gdansk, take a private transfer to your hotel and check in for three nights.
Learn about Gdansk's fascinating and turbulent history on a 3-hour walking tour of the city. The main thoroughfares of Gdansk are packed full of historic buildings, restored after the city was all but destroyed during WWII. Stroll along Długa Street to see the impressive Artus Court and Neptune Fountain before reaching the Motława River bank with its pretty pastel coloured buildings and the iconic 'Crane' which is now part of the National Maritime Museum. After the tour you may feel a little peckish so head to Słony Spichlerz on Granary Island for lunch. Found in the repurposed Deo Plaza building this restaurant/market concept combines many restaurants and cuisines under one roof. Japanese in Gdansk - why not? Or stick to good solid Polish fare; the choice is yours! (B)
Today is a free day so delve deeper into Gdańsk’s remarkable past and its role in shaping modern Europe. Begin with a visit to the European Solidarity Centre, a striking, award-winning museum that tells the story of the Solidarity movement and Poland’s peaceful fight for freedom during communist times. Walk through the nearby Gdańsk Shipyard, where the movement was born, and see landmarks such as the Monument to the Fallen Shipyard Workers and the historic BHP Hall, where the Gdańsk Agreement was signed.
In the afternoon, explore the Museum of the Second World War, one of Europe’s most impressive museums, offering a powerful and immersive account of the war’s impact on Poland and beyond.
After such a thought-provoking day, unwind with a stroll along the Motława River, or perhaps stop by one of Gdańsk’s waterfront cafés to watch the sun set over the Baltic. (B)
