Overview

Gdańsk hides its secrets. Often, wandering the main street of the Main City hundreds of times a year, we come across many familiar elements that have their secrets and we will gladly tell you about them!

You will learn:

Why is the Golden Gate not all gold? Who looks from its top from east and west.
Why is Glove hanging on Dluga street?
What is the difference between Gdańsk tenement houses, e.g. the number of windows, and why you had to pay window tax?
Did kings stroll under the Royal Road, where they lived, what they ate?
Is Neptune just gushing water?
Where did a devil tooth come from at Arthur's Court?
Where did the Gdańsk people eat the best tube with whipped cream and cotton candy?
Where can we find the elephant head?
What was produced on Powrożnicza?
And why is the Green Gate red?
Motława in the Old Port, why so important for the city?
Granary Island - an island of treasures.

We invite families with children, groups of friends.

    Activity name

    Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
