Malbork Castle regular tour

Enjoy the history of the castle. Guest spoke good English. Driver was great. Highly recommend tour. Just wish we got to see the city area after the castle.

Worth a visit if you’re in Malbork, Poland to learn about the history of the castle. I done some historical research prior to going and note that not all things I learnt were mentioned in the audio-guide tour! There are lots of steps and cobbled pathways so be warned if you are not fully physically able. On the day of our visit if was not too over-crowded but what spoilt our visit somewhat is the amount of group tours which caused several backlogs as you are waiting for groups to walk through sometimes small doorways or narrow stairs rather than couples or small family groups. Still worth a visit but you just have to be patient. The audio-guide was good and is GPS / WiFi activated so follows your route / speed of walking. However, after a while we found we just wanted to turn it off and just walk at our own pace than be guided by the audio-guide. Having said that we would not have known the relevance of rooms without the audio-guide explaining what we were looking at.

Imposing and certainly characteristic structure. Since it is the largest brick castle, I recommend visiting it with an audio guide in order to understand what the various rooms were used for and, above all, how it was rebuilt after the war.

Beautiful castle with very interesting history. Magda our tour guide was exceptionally good and made the tour very enjoyable

Alicia gave us an amazing guided tour of the castle… Lots of good stories and interesting information, and particular how life was on a daily basis in the castle. Highly recommend.

Beautiful castle of teutonic knights. We enjoyed the self tour. It's the world's largest brick castle and the largest Gothic fortress by land. It does missing some historical collections. Caries the largest amber collection.

I got a text from the tour operator asking me if I could move up the tour a day earlier because I was the only participant and the tour needed at least two. Anyhow, it turned out even a day earlier was still only two people so it was kind of a semi-private tour which was fine by me. The driver Chris was a soon to be retired historian so we had a few chats related to the castle and also the history Gdansk. Our tour guide as a lady name Alicia, she has been a tour guide there for a very long time and witnessed the rebuilding of the castle. We spent about 3 hrs touring the castle. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. If you have an extra day in Gdansk, visiting Melbrok Castle is an good option.

The experience was great. The guide was. Very knowledgeable. The only thing that I kinda bummed out about was that we had to meet a timeline and I didn’t have more time at the end to check out the Amber exposition they have there. Overall, I do recommend for transportation facilitation and get the history of castle, which is amazing.

Over priced for what you get. Felt rushed. 3 hours long so be prepared for lots of walking. Lovely castle though and biggest in the world so worth checking out of castles are your thing.

Everything went smoothly and the experience was well worth it. Driver pickup and tour guide had excellent information to share. We were picked up in Sopot at 730AM and back at 130PM. 3 hours with the guide in the Castle. You could spend much more time but with the guide you see the important stuff. By starting early you miss some of the crowd and it was great to explore and take pictures with our guide.
