Tour Options
Itinerary
During the cruise around the port, you will see Westerplatte, Wisłoujście Fortress, port cranes, quays, dry docks and ships - both those under renovation and during loading/unloading. The port is alive all year round! At the end, we will reach the historic Gdańsk crane itself. We provide a comfortable seagoing yacht with a toilet, two decks (open and closed) and everything you need to spend time comfortably. Most of the cruise takes place in the port of Gdańsk using an engine. The exit from the port is quite long, and along the way we will see many interesting objects and port life. We reach the mouth of the port into the Bay of Gdańsk and there, depending on the weather conditions, we enter the bay for a moment or turn back before it.

The people were lovely but the boat trip was grim. We were taken around the section of river where the industrial area was. It was ugly
2 hours spent on the beautiful sailboat, which is best if the weather is nice because there is a lot of wind. Additionally, there is a welcome prosecco.
Shaggy is the best guide ever. Great knowledge and very interesting stories. Shaggy is the best captain ever!
Really nice tour and the captain Shaggy was the best! 10/10
It was a very nice experience overall. We really enjoyed the evening on the boat, and the captain was excellent. However, I have to say that the organization was quite disappointing. I booked the trip well in advance for 11 a.m. The day before, I was called and informed that the tour had been postponed to 6 p.m. due to the weather, and then it was moved again to 8 p.m. In reality, the weather forecast was very good. Then, just one hour before the cruise, I received a text message saying that the tour had been postponed once more, this time to 9 p.m. As a result, I didn't even have enough time to have dinner beforehand. The cruise was supposed to be a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday, but because of all the delays, I ended up having to tell him about it in advance. Such a pity, because the experience itself was lovely.
Relaxing and scenic cruise on small, comfortable yacht with excellent Captain.
A fantastic way to experience Gdańsk! The sunset views over the Motława and Old Town were absolutely stunning. The mix of historic architecture and a working shipyard / harbour scenery gives a unique perspective of the city. The catamaran was very comfortable, with only 6 passengers on board. A lovely touch was a glass of alcohol-free prosecco and cozy warm blankets - as the evening got cooler. Kudos to the Staff – friendly, welcoming, and passionate - everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Highly recommended for a relaxing and memorable evening!
The tour was way better than we expected. Our captain, Olek was very nice and shared a lot of interesting information about the cruise, the port and anything else we were interested in. He seemed very passionate about his job, which was refreshing to see! The cruise was not crowded at all and the sights were amazing! I’m really glad we chose to take part in this activity! Would recommend to everyone!
Very intimate, only 3 guests aboard. Our guide/skipper Marta was very experienced and knowledgeable and with only 3 people on board it was nice to ask questions. She was full of anecdotes and told us a lot about Gdansk and Polish history in general. The route is not particularly scenic but you get to hear a lot about the surroundings.
Wonderful skipper called Marta. She was friendly and professional. Lots of anecdotes. Only 3 passengers onboard so she gave us her full attention.
