Gdansk Boat Ride

We'll meet at the appointed time in the port of Galar in the former imperial shipyard in Gdansk. The tour begins with a walk aboard a galley boat. Prepare for a 1 hour and 20 minutes sail along the Motlava River, where you will see the most characteristic places of Gdansk from a unique perspective. The tour includes views of great merchant ships and part of the historical center, up to the ruins of a 14th-century Teutonic castle with a remaining battlement wall.

We will pass the medieval crane of Gdansk, the oldest in the Baltic, which was significantly renovated post-World War II. Historical buildings on Olowianka Island, erected by the Knights of the Teutonic Order, will also be visible, alongside remains of barns and warehouses that once housed hops and hemp, contrasting with modern architecture.

The ride concludes as we return to the starting point.

What is the boat like?

The boats are inspired by medieval galleys, constructed of wood, and have a capacity of 12 people.
