BART is a gem. And his love of the country and its history shows as he goes through the tour. Best time ever. Highly recommend
Outstanding tour! Bart is a fantastic tour giude, knowledgeable and passionate about his city and its cuisine. Great value also, i really recommend the tour!
Booking the tour was super easy and delivered on all points. Bart met us near the Golden Gate and walked with us giving historical accounts of Gdansk and taking us to the best places for tastes of Polish food and drink. Loved the basement location of the first restaurant and the food was great, too. We're not avid beer drinkers, but we actually liked the ones that were shared! Next to vodka tasting and a learning session about amber - both excellent. The coca cola vodka was our favorite :) Last was a restaurant with meat, perogies, and soup. A bit heavy for summer and the restaurant I'm not sure had air, but glad we tried it. Bart was an excellent guide and would refer anyone new to Gdansk in a heartbeat. Thank you, Bart!
