This walking tour in Gdansk's Main Town lasts about two and a half hours and is led by a local guide. The tour covers key historic sites and streets where you learn about Gdansk's complex past, including its periods of growth, destruction, and rebuilding. The guide shares stories about the various peoples and powers that have influenced the city over centuries, explaining events like the arrival of the Crusaders. The walk starts at Zielony Most, where you'll see views of the Long Embankment. From there, you'll visit the Green Gate, a water gate inspired by Flemish town halls. The Crane will be observed from a distance, and you will also walk beneath its treadwheel mechanism. The tour continues around St. Mary's Church, where you can watch a figure show inside the transept. You'll stroll down Mariacka Street, a favored medieval street among locals, and cross the Renaissance Golden Gate into the Main Town. The Main Town Hall, seen from three sides, is included with a chance to hear its carillon bells. Other stops include the Museum of Gdansk, the Neptune Fountain, a second visit to the Green Gate to note its residential scale, and the Great Armoury, notable for its late Renaissance facade. The guide is included in the tour price.
