We were absolute beginners but Szymon was very professional, knowledgeable, funny and he made the whole experience such an enjoyable one. It was great to see Gdańsk from a different perspective and I can honestly say kayaking gets easier after a bit. I would definitely recommend.Had a great time out on the water, once you got moving the cold wasn’t an issue! The Guide was an absolute gentleman, incredibly skilled kayaker and gave some good information about the City. Well worth your time.

Highly recommend!This was an excellent way to explore... I felt very safe with the proper equipment and a safety orientation. Szymon filled us in on some of the history of Gdansk with a sense of humor. Hot chocolate, many photos, and some dining recommendations topped off this tour. Thanks Szymon!
