    Even though it was not planned initially to take such a trip in Gdansk,we chose the day route of Gdansk channels and really enjoyed it.Provided water and umbrellas that are so welcomed on a sunny,hot day.Life west on demand.They also did their best to organise booking of tickets and answering all the questions.Surely nice in the evening as well,if enough courage to go to the starting area by night,that might seem a bit spooky.Possible to go off in the Old Town,close to Amber Sky.

    Lovely guide with nice storys about Gdansk. At the end of the trip we took the option to get out 100 meter away from the city, so we didn't have to walk back from the old shipyard where we have startet. Excellent Service 💕

    Nice somewhat smaller boats for a slightly more personal experience. The tour cover several waterways in and around Gdansk old town and the guide provide plenty of background information, both contemporary and from a historical perspective. Can very much recommend this tour, very much worth the time.

    A fantastic city tour on the water. The small boats allow you to get easily into smaller canals and under very low bridges and see a lot of today's and old Gdansk in 70 minutes. The tour guide really did an excellent job. I can only recommend.

    The whole Galar Team is very nice, flexible and quite energetic, hence the tour is very lively, cozy and enjoyable, I fully recommend the morning boat trip! Greg is a great story teller and he even give some tips about places where to go in the city

    Splendid tour of about 60 minutes along the canals of Gdansk with guide (English or Polish). The tour allows you to see the whole city, in particular the oldest one from the perspective of the water, allowing a beautiful view of the facades of the buildings and the most interesting architecture. There is also no shortage of glimpses of the more modern Gdansk. Comfortable boats (a blanket is also provided for the colder days) and the possibility of choosing different times (departures are approximately every hour) and different tours (there is also the longer one towards the Baltic Sea). Perfect organization: obviously if there was also a guide in Italian it would be the best. Absolutely competitive prices (around €16 per person for the shortest tour).

    Thank you very much for the lovely day! The crew, especially Greg, were very entertaining and took time to answer questions. We can only recommend this tour.

    (Translated by Google) An attraction that I accidentally found on the internet and I immediately wanted to go sailing. For the amount of PLN 65, you get a lighter cruise around the yard, blanket and water, but this is not the most important thing. The atmosphere of this place, wonderful views at night, illuminated ships and, above all, a guide who tells with passion. Thank you very much for allowing me to see Gdańsk from this side. Reusable Attraction type! Why ? Well, because every now and then new units appear in the repair yard, so you will hear about something different each time. No lubrication but I fell in love with Gdańsk. Thanks again for the hour and a half. (Original) Atrakcją na które trafiłem przypadkiem w internecie i od razu chciałem popłynąć. Za kwotę 65zł dostajesz rejs galarem po stoczni koc i wodę ale nie to jest najważniejsze. Klimat tego miejsca cudowne widoki w nocy, oświetlone statki no i przede wszystkim przewodnik który opowiada z pasją. Serdecznie wam dziękuję za to że mogłem zobaczyć Gdańsk od tej strony. Atrakcja typu wielokrotnego użytku! Dla czego ? Ano dla tego że co jakiś czas pojawia się nowe jednostki w stoczni remontowej więc za każdym razem posłuchasz o czymś innym. Bez smarowania ale zakochałem się w Gdańsku. Jeszcze raz dziękuję za te półtorej godziny.

    (Translated by Google) A great attraction for adults, older and younger children, residents and tourists. We went on a cruise on the Shipyard, we learned a lot of interesting information. We saw a place that is hard to visit. It was very windy on our cruise, but there were blankets and the Lady did not give us any reason to panic. We recommend it to everyone and now it's time for a Galar cruise around Gdańsk. It's nice to see this beautiful place from a different perspective. (Original) Super atrakcja dla dorosłych, dzieci tych starszych i młodszych, mieszkańców i turystów. Wybraliśmy się na rejs po Stoczni, dowiedzieliśmy się wiele ciekawych informacji. Zobaczyliśmy miejsce, które ciężko zwiedzić. Na naszym rejsie bardzo mocno wiało, ale były koce, a Pani nie dawała nam powodu do paniki. Polecamy wszystkim i teraz czas na rejs Galarem po Gdańsku. Fajnie zobaczyć te piękne miejsce z innej perspektywy.

    A different kind of cruise, to feel the majesty of shipbuilding. Enjoyable. To improve: a/ Walesa and Solidarity birthed in this shipyard not even mentioned once? Wtf… B/ directions to find the point of departure unclear

    A great boat tour, with a knowledgeable guide who spoke in both Polish and English which was really helpful. We went on a later cruise and it was amazing to see the city all light up at night

    We booked the sunset tour. Overall, a nice boat trip through the port city of Gdansk with some explanations. Due to the low height of the boats, even low bridges could be sailed under. Blankets and umbrellas are available.

    Beautiful city

    A great cruise, wonderful views from the perspective of the river and, above all, a guide who talked in a quite interesting way about interesting facts along the route, I highly recommend it!

    I didn't plan this attraction at all, it popped up by accident while checking other things and I'm glad I clicked on it. I was in Gdańsk in May 2023. I bought the ticket online and it cost me 17 EU. I was at the meeting point just after 8 p.m., where a large group was already waiting. We were divided into several ships - some were Polish-speaking, some English-speaking, I found a combination of both groups, the guide at the front spoke in English, and the helmsman at the back spoke in Polish. At the beginning we sailed towards the shipyards and the setting sun in the background and it was a beautiful sight, the guide was happy to take photos of the group. Later we went to explore Gdańsk from the water, the guides told interesting and witty stories, so no one got bored while listening. Later it got a little colder, luckily we could use the blankets available at the gala. It is also worth taking some mosquito repellent. On the way back, you could get off closer to the center or return to the starting point. The whole trip was very pleasant and I think that if anyone visits this city, they should add a gala cruise to their list.

    Great trip, beautiful view of Gdansk from the water. We received a lot of information through the boat trip, but you should understand English or Polish.

  • 5/5 Polina S. 8 months ago on Google • 15 reviews
    A nice boat trip and very nice staff. Lots of great impressions and a great opportunity to explore the city this way from the Easser! Not overpriced and a good price-performance ratio, a clear recommendation!

    Amazing views, beautiful sunset against the background of the cranes of the Gdańsk Shipyard. Great guide. I will come back there again :)

  • 5/5 Pia V. 3 years ago on Google
    Something you really need to experience. The best tour in Gdansk, almost private and takes you to the places that no other tours go. The guide has so much knowledge and you hear really interesting things. He really does this with passion. The part with the shipyard is crazy interesting and sunset on the water is really amazing and unique experience. Dogs are allowed, we had a dog with us and it was no problem at all. Really really good. And again thank you!!!

  • 5/5 Michal P. 7 months ago on Google
    Lovely easy cruise around the city center of Gdansk. It is just the highlights though, do not expect detailed introduction into Gdansk's history. Views from the river are great though.

  • 5/5 Viktor V. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience with Galatians Gdanski; it was a spectacular tour over Gdańsk shipyard provided by Piotr.

  • 5/5 Jurga R. 2 years ago on Google
    It was an absolute delight! Our guide Veronica was very personal about her city, told us a lot of stories both historical and contemporary. She provided umbrellas when rain was pouring. Would repeat it when in Gdansk. Recommend it when traveling with kids! 26 August 2021

  • 5/5 Frances Q. 9 months ago on Google
    Great tour of the city centre, the tour guides were very friendly and had good knowledge of the city, port and their histories. The only thing I would say is that the meeting point is very difficult to find, but never the less would definitely recommend this! 👍🏼

  • 5/5 Foad J. 9 months ago on Google
    A very nice tour in a replica boat on Motlava river to see a different side of the city. The guide was very talkative and helpful with a lot of information to share. But careful, you have to check the weather forecast before booking your tour as heavy rain will ruin it for you.

  • 5/5 Gintarė P. 8 months ago on Google
    We attended the sunset tour and it exceeded our expectations! The boat is small with maximum capacity of 12 people and cosy decorated with oil lamps. The tour was fun, informative and even though we couldn’t see the actual sunset we are very happy with the tour itself. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Andrei L. 11 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Taylor 10 months ago on Google
    Loved the tour! Great information and good jokes from the guide. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Emily S. 10 months ago on Google
    This cruise was awesome. Really intimate and great information from the tour guide and a different view of the city! It's really hard to find (even our guide said he got lost on his first day!) so look for the red shipping containers with the Galar banner on them.

  • 5/5 Jakub P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic experience! Jaroslaw was our guide, very entertaining, genuinely cared and made sure we had a good time.

  • 5/5 Karolina M. 2 years ago on Google
    Genialny rejs nocny w okolicach stoczni. Chociaż jestem gdańszczanka nigdy nie widziałam stoczni z tej strony. Przewodnik Pan Piotr opowiada bardzo ciekawie i ma tak przyjemny głos ze tym jest ciekawiej. Wycieczka warta polecenia dla każdego kto jest ciekawy zobaczyć i dowiedzieć się czegoś innego w Gdańsku.

  • 5/5 New Food R. 1 year ago on Google
    Enjoyed everything about this trip. We were lucky with our guide too - he was fun and talkative, provided a lot of information about Gdansk history as an old harbour.

  • 5/5 Mikala K. 2 years ago on Google
    I had a great time on this boat tour. The guide is friendly and knowledgeable. It was fun to see the city from the canals also.
