The duration was just right, there is a 30min break in between. I would highly recommend :)”

Vi var 2 voksne (50) og 3 unge (start 20ˋerne). Vores guide spurgte ind til, hvad vi allerede kendte til Gdansk og Polen og tog afsæt i det og vores forskellige aldre og kendskab. Da vi allerede havde været på guide tur på Solidaritetsmuseet sprang vi let henover det og brugte i stedet tiden på andre dele af byen.
