An Eco-Friendly Way to Sightsee Gdnask

Start your 3 hours bike tour of Gdansk in the city center. Led by your English-speaking guide, ride along a nice route as you enjoy the warm breeze and fresh air. The Main City of Gdansk will show you some of its heritage attractions like the Defensive Walls, Golden Gate, and Armory, the finest examples of Renaissance architecture in the city. Continue this leisurely bike tour in Old Town along Mariacka Street with a few cafes and shops as your guide explains the Polish ties with amber stone dating back to the Neolithic Period.

Learn About Gdnask's History

Visit popular sights like the brick Gothic Catholic church of St. Mary's Basilica and the famous Polish Post Office–a symbol of the heroic last stand of the post office employees against the Nazi attack in 1939. Hear about Poland’s struggle for freedom during a visit to the shipyard with a visit to the OHS room and a short lecture on ‘Understanding the Solidarity Phenomenon.’ Discover hidden spots, which visitors usually don’t get to see as you ride into the Lower town with remains of city fortifications and bastions, a stone water gate from the early 17th century, a manor from the late 18th century, and numerous historical houses and remains worth seeing.
