Top 10 Hidden Gems Things to do in Gdansk, Northern Poland

September 21, 2021 Janette Largent

One of Poland’s most beautiful cities, Gdansk, on the Baltic Sea, has played major roles in history, especially in the 20th-century. It was the 1939 flash point of World War II, and then in 1980, the birthplace of the Solidarnosc labor movement, ushering the end of Communist domination in Eastern Europe. Gdansk’s Old Town, painstakingly reconstructed to its Hanseatic League glory after being leveled in World War II, is a highlight. The 14th-century Town Hall houses the city’s historical museum.

Room of Plenty

!NOTE: Previous booking mandatory! Visit the iconic, escape room-like private museum of Ludwig Plenty located in his authentic apartment or play one of our outdoor games with fascinating riddles (also in Augmented Reality). A visit to Room of Plenty takes you back to 1969 and offers an exciting adventure with a captivating story behind it! The game is designed for groups of 2-5 people. It starts from a cup of coffee with the Game Master who tells you the story of the traveler and explains the rules. After that, you become Indiana Jones and start the 75-minute adventure. Suitable for any number of players, the iPad-based outdoor games offer unique sightseeing opportunities - riddles are located near main attractions of Gdańsk. Not only will you be able to explore the city, but save it from danger! There are two exciting titles: Operation Mindfall is spy-themed, Magic Portal is a fantasy game. Are you ready for Gdansk’s top entertainment? All games are available in English.

This is the 8th or 9th time I visit an escape game. Room of Plenty offers a game a little different from the other rooms I've been to. We met a nice and friendly host, a well made room and plenty (????) riddles to solve! A must-do if you like escape games and visit Gdansk!

Undercover City Games: Gdansk

In our cool-and-exciting city game, Lockdown, you and your friends are cast as foreign agents trapped in Gdansk with the authorities closing in. With time running out, you must try to complete as many tasks as possible for a local intelligence agency in order to secure their help in escaping. Our game is a really fun way to see the Old Town, it is COMPLETELY OUTSIDE & we have implemented full measures against COVID-19. We also run an equally fun game in nearby Sopot called "Under The Radar". Both games are available in ENGLISH or PO POLSKU ;)

We had an awesome time doing the undercover city games in Gdansk. Having never done anything like that before, it was a really pleasant surprise that we would recommend doing for people visiting Gdansk. As well as doing different kinds of puzzles, you also get to explore the old Town in an exciting way! It was also fun that we were 3 teams competing against each other for the most points in 90 minutes.

I tried a package with scrub and massage, pedicure and manicure. As I hadn`t booked before coming it as not possible to do all the procedures in one day. Instead it was possible to do it in two days at the same price. I really recommend that package. I am very happy with the procedures and the people there were very nice. Definitely worth the price.
