    Great way to see the city!

    Funny puzzles, although the time to complete all quests and still have time to actually enjoy the places was a bit to short

    Response from the operator: Thanks so much for the review! We’re really happy you enjoyed seeing the city with Hevelius Treasure! 😊 In Poland in November, only the real tough ones want to keep chasing puzzles for more than 2 hours 😄💪 Hope to see you again.

    It's great fun, regardless of age, weather, physical fitness, I recommend it to anyone who has no idea about Gdańsk, but also to those who think they already know everything about their city !

    Good fun for most

    The game was a lot of fun and our game masters were great and very helpful! We were 6 friends divided into two teams (they asked if we wanted to be split). Great fun, would recommend.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind words! Such guests are a pleasure for us, see you!

    Great game - interestingly planned, various tasks, good proportions between number of puzzles and walking around the old town so great for integrating people, very interesting and pleasant ending - surprise, professional and friendly guide :)

    Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gdansk.

    How much does Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt cost?

    +

    Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gdansk usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Gdansk is not rushed.

    Is Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 76 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gdansk, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?

    +

    Around 27 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Gdansk can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Gdansk and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Gdansk within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Gdansk?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Gdansk experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gdansk Food and Sightseeing Tour with Bart, Discover Gdansk Walking Tour, Gdańsk: City Sightseeing Tour by Buggy/Golf Cart LIVE GUIDED 1H. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Gdansk?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Gdansk?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?

    +

    Included: a map, a pencil, a notepad, an entrance ticket and a paper bag; All Fees and Taxes; and Tablet with a game. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?

    +

    Go to the Corner of Zbytki Street and Za Murami Street and into the park with big benches. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English, Polish and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Hevelius Treasure | Scavenger Hunt?
