RAFTING CULTURE ON THE UNESCO WORLD LIST
In March 2021, six countries – Poland, Spain, the Czech Republic, Austria, Latvia and Germany – submitted an application to inscribe rafting on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It is worth mentioning that work on the application itself – under the guidance of the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage – took more than 2 years. Finally, on December 1 of the same year, rafting was officially recognized by UNESCO. What’s more, the Committee for the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage, justifying its decision to include rafting in the List, praised the applicants, explaining the importance of cooperation between countries and the protection of national traditions.

Cruises | Key to a successful vacation
Are you planning a vacation in Gdansk? Perhaps you are just passing through here, or visiting loved ones? The reason for your stay in the Neptune’s City is really irrelevant – all that matters is what you see during it. If you are in the city and have a spare moment, it would be a shame not to take advantage of the opportunity to hop aboard a ship and go on an unforgettable, thrilling adventure. Since Gdansk is a port city, it’s not difficult to find boat tours or other sea activities here. The tourist cruises offered by many carriers are sure to impress all visitors – even the most demanding.
Not everyone is comfortable in crowds – we are well aware of this. For this reason, we have prepared an offer for tourist cruises, which will appeal to all those who appreciate peace and quiet when traveling. Our galleys are replicas of the famous medieval boats that used to be used for river timber floating. Taking care of the highest safety standards, we adapted them into vessels perfect for transporting tourists. On their deck you will find 12 seats – so it is the most optimal space to spend time with family and friends, without worrying about unpleasant squeezing or the presence of dozens of other travelers.
Gdansk | City Guide
Sightseeing in Gdansk is one of the first activities tourists choose to do when they arrive in the city. Neptune’s city has a wonderful and extensive history, which, if told well, most people listen to with bated breath. But why not make the whole experience more interesting? Not everyone feels like covering long kilometers on their own feet – even less so in the company of high temperatures. Sightseeing in Gdansk can take the form of a cruise – a relaxing journey that will provide not only interesting information but also wonderful views, impossible to see anywhere else.
There is no denying that an important component of a successful tour is a good guide for whom history is a passion and not just a way to make a living. If you are looking for such a person, you are in the right place. During a galley cruise, our experienced storyteller will immerse all tour participants in the history of Gdansk from its founding to the present. During the trip, passengers can count on little-known facts and curiosities that are not written about in books. Find out how Gdansk was founded, which famous figures inhabited it and what key events in the history of Europe took place here – all this during a guided sea tour.

During the cruise you will pass, among other things, the majestic Crane, a symbol of the city and Gdansk’s commercial power. Looking toward the waterfront you will see colorful townhouses that tell the story of their inhabitants.
