Paddle Gdansk’s canals and river past the Crane, shipyard, and two islands on a friendly 150-minute kayak tour for active sightseers.

“Great kayak trip with a very informative guide. Fun to see beautiful Gdańsk from the canals. Beware that you will be paddling for a full 2 1/2 hours (sometimes against the current) so you may want to bring a water bottle. You’ll need a bit of upper body strength but there are two people per kayak so one person can rest while the other paddles! Lots of historical information along the way from the guide.”
