I really like to learn about the things I can see as a tourist and she did it!

5.00An excellent guide! She haa knowledge not only about the city's history but also about architecture, coming from someone educated in this field, which I greatly appreciate as a passionate enthusiast. This wasn't a story like "there's a church on the right, an old house on the left." It was a journey through the city, steeped in history and interesting facts, with details about what happened and why so and why here. Plus, what's not so obvious, with illustrations in the form of sketches, photos, and reproductions of both the entire city and selected landmarks along the route. The three hours flew by seamlessly and were incredibly engaging. And this story can be heard not only in Polish or English, which is practically the norm these days, but also in French, which is not so obvious and typical.

5.00We visited Gdansk in May 2024, my wife and I, accompanied by Agnieszka. She speaks French perfectly, having spent part of her childhood in France. Passionate about her city, we walked for more than 3 hours, discovering the history and secrets of the city. Agnieszka is charming and does not lack humor! We highly recommend
