With Marek, our guide, you could feel the enthusiasm with which he spoke about his city and his personal stories. After a tour of the city center we took the boat to Westerplatte where WWII started. Then we went to Oliva, where we could listen to an incomparable organ concert in the Cistercian monastery. The entire park and the mighty monastery complex are worth seeing! Finally, we drove to Zopot and looked at the sophisticated beach promenade. The house of Klaus Kinski and the "crooked house" were also worth seeing.

Marek was professional, and knowledgeable of historical information. There is so much to cover in a tri-city tour. Marek was perhaps too quick in attempting to show us as much as possible. My wife was not able to maintain his walking pace. Overall we very much enjoyed the tour. In particular, Gdansk, and Gdynia.

Perfect tour and enough to get to know the 3 cities a little

On a cold May day, I took the city-tour through Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia, with the competent guide Ella and the friendly driver Michael. This tour was very beneficial, thanks to the in-depth knowledge, competence and sympathy of the guide Ella, whom I thank and congratulate.

Competent, sympathetic city guide and a safe driver, who showed us the "highliths" of Gdansk and the surrounding area in just a few hours.

Krysztof was a very competent guide. The hours flew by and we saw and heard a lot of interesting things. The tour is highly recommended
