Duration: 1 hour 10 minutes - 1 hour 20 minutes

This cruise will introduce you to the sights of Gdańsk from the water as you ride a historic vessel. You’ll be taking a 12-seater replica of a traditional Polish river boat, a wooden craft that was used for over 400 years.

The journey begins at the inoperative former areas of Gdańsk Shipyard, once the workplace of over 18,000 people and not usually accessible to the public. From here, you’ll glide through Motława, the center of the Old Town. You’ll pass key landmarks like the Teutonic castle’s ruins, the city’s water gates, old tenement houses and a 15th-century wooden crane. You’ll also see the new builds of Ołowianka Island and Granary Island and get up close to the harbor’s specialist vessels and cranes.
