    Hi! Howard can I travel from Lech Walesa airport to Gdansk old town?

    • Maja Tramontana

      Hi,

      bus line 210 departs from Osowa station to the city centre of Gdansk.
      So, the only thing you need to do is reach Osowa station first, which can be done by train which departs right in front of the terminal and takes you to Osowa in 7 minutes.
