Common questions

FAQ

Are admission tickets and guide included in the transfer?

Westerplatte grounds are free. KL Stutthof Memorial entry is free as well, but a licensed historical guide (recommended, 3 h tour) costs PLN 350 per group of up to 30 — online booking two weeks in advance is mandatory. The transfer (EUR 450 E-Class) covers the chauffeur, vehicle, flight tracking if pickup is at GDN and 5 hours of waiting across both sites.

Can children join the Stutthof tour?

KL Stutthof Memorial recommends a minimum age of 14. The exhibition material is very difficult — crematorium, gas chamber, photographs of victims, accounts of executions. Please brief children on the historical context before the visit. Subdued dress is expected (no slogans, no loud colours), photography only outside camp buildings, silence in memorial halls. The plan can also be limited to Westerplatte only (EUR 280, 4 h) if the family chooses to skip Stutthof.

My flight arrives early morning at GDN — does the same-day plan still work?

Yes, but we recommend caution. Landing at GDN 6:00-8:00, transfer to the hotel and luggage drop (20 min), tour starting at 9:30. The day runs 7-8 hours, so a return around 17:00. Stutthof is an emotionally heavy visit — after a long flight and time-zone change it can be overwhelming. A better option: rest at the hotel on the arrival day, day tour the next morning. We track the flight live and 60 minutes of free waiting is included. The service runs 24/7.

Can I add a stop on route Gdansk (hotel) or Lech Walesa Airport (GDN) -> Westerplatte -> KL Stutthof Memorial -> Gdansk hotel?

Yes. Planned stops and waiting windows can be included within a single booking.

Will I receive route confirmation before pickup?

Yes. Core timing and operational details are confirmed before dispatch.
