Private Gdansk City Tour – A Walk Through the Old Town of Gdansk

We will begin our Gdańsk highlights tour at the Upland Gate, a 16th-century entrance to the Old Town.
On our way, we will see the Torture House and the Prison Tower, formerly home to the Amber Museum.

Next, we will enter Long Street and the Long Market, where we will admire Gdańsk’s most magnificent landmarks:

• Artus Court – the medieval meeting hall of wealthy merchants

• Neptune Fountain – the symbol of Gdańsk

• The Golden House

• The Green Gate

We will then step into one of the amber workshops to see a short demonstration of amber polishing – the famous “gold of the Baltic Sea” – and learn how to recognise real amber from imitations.

Although the official Royal Route ends here, we will continue to the Motława River waterfront to see the iconic medieval Crane. We will walk along the most picturesque street in Gdańsk – Mariacka Street – which will lead us to St. Mary’s Church, the largest brick Gothic church in the world. Inside, we will explore several fascinating works of medieval art.

We will finish the Gdańsk highlights tour at the richly decorated Great Armoury.

Recommended entrances:
• Artus Court
• St. Mary’s Church
